Day 2

Well, after staying up until 1:30 last night, catching up on fics and generally doing more fannish things than I've done in about 2 years...I have a question.....HOW exactly would I post a fic on here if I got so inclined? Do I post it on the community it's associated with? Post it on mine with a link or announcement somehow to there? And does the ( Read more... )

Rhonda, I'm at work but I'd be happy to walk you through this when I get home, if no one else jumps into the fray beforehand.

Either way. Check the community's rules. If you go over the length limit in sentinel_thurs, for example, a link back to your own journal is perfectly acceptable.

And does the linky thing that they like you to use to hide the bulk of the writing option jump out at you? IE, easily done?

Easily done, but it doesn't 'jump'. Here's a post with basic HTML codes. Making cut-tags is with the links section, about halfway down.

I've dabbled with years ago--including some that were finished and only posted to mailing lists, I believe (it's been so long) and have gotten motivated to try this writing thing out again. Yay for more stories ( ... )

Off-topic :-), but I was just reading snycock's latest fic and happened to read your comment and I see you're new to LJ and just wanted to say hi. And you're both a TS fan and an HTLJ fan -- cool!

Thanks so much! cardsgal70 December 12 2007, 14:26:21 UTC

Thanks! It's all a bit overwhelming right now!

But Herc was my 1st fandom....just wish there was more being written still. :-(

It gets better fast. :-) starwatcher307's info is tons of help and it's such a fun place to play. (And it's very cool that you plan to post fic!)

Herc was my first fandom too (except I didn't really think of myself as a real fan of anything until a year or so ago, when I started meeting some TS people). They've started doing the RLJ eps again, I think; I can't even keep up with everything I want to in TS right now so I haven't been visiting the Iolausian Library to see, though. Too many heroes, not enough time. ::sighs::
