Down the rabbit hole

Oct 18, 2011 20:58

I did it.

I joined fanfiction.net.

I told elenuial I was doing it, and though he teased me about writing fanfiction, he commended me for being totally unapologetic about it. And, naturally, reminded me that he had suggested I try my hand at it years ago ( Read more... )

Go you!

Got linkage? No promises, I feel a strange gut obligation to mock fanfiction wherever possible, including the stuff in my own drafts folder. But now I'm curious.

If someone is going to mock me on the internet, I'd prefer it be someone I love.

This is me. Still pretty bare.

omg i just got it to load (wouldn't load on my phone earlier). Dragon Age! That is actually what I am most likely to write in as well. :-) Are you on tumblr? autumnesquirrel is super into Dragon Age fandom on tumblr, if you want to investigate that. :-)

Oh, I need a DA icon!

yay DA2 humor! I've been wanting good humor that wasn't also super porny. I am laughing out loud. :-)

Congratulations! It's a pretty good feeling when people respond to your work.

Though not so much anymore, I used to be pretty big into reading fanfic. Wrote a handful of things myself. This is me: http://www.fanfiction.net/u/108150/

Solidarity in geekdom!

I'm glad you're enjoying it!

But writing these things will EAT YOUR SOUL. It's like "I have an idea for a short one!" and soon you have FOUR UNFINISHED ONES SITTING ON YOUR DESKTOP.

Unless you wanted to mod your NaNoWriMo goals into "40k of stories," which could totally work.

Yay fanfic!

I super super.reccomend doing yuletide to both of you, it is like the best thing in fandom in my opinion. :) it is a fanfic exchange that is only for rare or obscure fandoms! Everyone gets assigned someone to write for.anonymously, and they all go live on christmas and then names get revealed on new years. It is SO AWESOME. Check out what I've gotten, it includes.hamlet slash and harvard/mit slash http://archiveofourown.org/users/laura47/gifts

Also archive of our own is the.beeeeest and you should crosspost everything there :)
