I'm exhausted from profile surfing and adding people at DW. So, if I get a $3 account I can convert my OID one, somehow? And my LJ name?
...FFII, the de facto DW thread?
Lorne: Back in Pylea they used to call me "sweet potato." Connor: Really. Lorne: Yeah, well, the exact translation was "fragrant tuber" but…
'Conviction (1)'
Fan Fiction II: Great story! Where's the sequel?
This thread is for fanfic recs, links, and discussion, but not for actual posting of fanfic.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Ngah. DWJ just makes me think Diana Wynne Jones.
I...don't trust LJ, since the whole strikethrough business, but on the other hand I love how pretty my LJ is, and I love all my gazillion icons, and it's a permanent account. So I can't see myself packing up and moving away, but if there is a fandom-wide move then I don't want to lose people either.
Grr.
On a vaguely related note - anyone got any idea how long we might be looking at, until the OTW Archive is out of Beta? Are we talking months, or years, do you suppose?

I think I'm in fic author love. Someone who used tintinnabulation in a story. Polysyllabic orgasm, here.

Depends on what you mean by "out of Beta". Open Beta (in which anyone can create an account) should happen this year. As for when they'll finally take the beta label off, I don't know. Gmail's still in beta, and it's been around for five years.

Not being technically savvy, I just meant when I can open an account. It would be nice to be able to put all my fanfic into the same archive, and it is the prettiest archive I ever saw.

Oh my God - has everyone who might be interested already read Dodger Winslow's stories? About John, pre-show, raising his boys? Because, Jesus, THEY ARE SO GOOD. I am utterly slain, and flaily, and filled with admiration. Also, the last one made me cry. Guh.
Four times the Winchesters had to move (and once they didn't)
Honestly. This killed me.

I've always liked this one [link] wherein John goes to parent-teacher conferences.

Thank you!
Meanwhile, if by some freak of chance Jilli has not yet happened across this Wednesday/Harmony story, she must read it now. It is OMG FABULOUS!

Fay, I hope you are staying safe.

Well, I ventured out yesterday and got shot.
But it was a waterpistol.
