I tell you I have this theory. It goes where, you're the one who's not my sister. Cuz mom adopted you from a shoe box full of baby howler monkeys, and never told you cuz it could hurt your delicate baby feelings.

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.

What ff.net drama?

There is a notice on the FFN front page dated June 4 going into detail on the difference between M (allowed) and MA (not allowed) ratings. And within short order I discovered that one of my favorite purveyors of smut had several stories removed, and access to her account restricted. Forthwith I edited/tamed my smuttiest pieces and put in the addresses to the full-frontal versions on AO3.

But it totally makes sense that with that many people probably flipping their nut and trying to get AO3 accounts to import fic before it goes away?

FFN is blocking AO3's automatic import feature, all of a sudden. I had to CC&P my last fic posted to AO3.

AHAH. I have a Calibre plug-in that does an FFN import, and that didn't work for me tonight: I guess it's being blocked, too.

If anyone needs AO3 invites, I've got two.

So you too can have the archive crash on you? It's actually easier on the servers right now if you read it while not logged in. And read from offsite links, rather than searching the archive. So we are told.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Ah, that would explain why AO3 keeps timing out on me, though I'm not logged in.

AO3 has always been problematic for me, and that goes back months.

I've set up an RSS feed for my favorite pairing: Steve/Tony. Although, AO3 does seem to have improved in speed since yesterday. I haven't gotten a 502 all day!

I wonder if anyone has done Lost Girl/Dexter . "An accidental meeting between two serial killers."

I would like one to pass on to the person who beta-read "Domus Hadeum" for me - monster that it was, I'm damned proud of it, she helped me make it the best thing I have ever written, and she is my favorite Mentalist fanfic writer - if the idea of a second-hand recipient is ok with you. Please and thank you!
