Thanks, Am-Chau. The story is the first one on the list, Vonnie. It's just called "Ghost."
Fan Fiction: Writers, Readers, and Enablers
This thread is for fanfic recs, links, and discussion, but not for actual posting of fanfic.
I haven't sought out any Sam/Frodo
PolyRecs.
IJS.
grins
Yeah - but I didn't really think I wanted to read Sam/Frodo. But damn, I just loved that story, so....
Bugger. Another fandom.
At least until the sequel to LoP comes out.
Lazy me doesn't want to look back for who said "yes" the first time, but I'm putting the final touches on Latitude in preparation for a BtVS WZ application, and need to know who I can add to the beta readers list.
All I need, and I can be emailed with the details, is name, email contact, lead time, and what you will/won't beta.
Anyaluvsya, anya4now@mailbox.com, need a week, won't read angst or anything with the letter 'q'.
For example.
Do I post a link, if I want to post a story?
Because this one's nearly 70k in length and wouldn't that be insanely long to post?
Can someone advise the poor techno-dweeb?
No, you don't want to post here -- except for the very short, we don't post fic on the board.
Posting a story can be done in a number of ways. You can post to a mailing list, to an archive, or to both, like with the BFA.
If you posted to BFA, for instance, you would upload a text file. The software would convert it to HTML and give you the link for the story. It would also cut the story into 400-line parts and mail these parts in order out over the BFA-L list.
Does that make sense?
Oh, and by "text" file, I mean a .txt file.
And by 70K, do you mean 70,000 words? or a text file that's 70 kilobytes? Because the first is much bigger than the second. *g*
except for the very short, we don't post fic on the board.
Except in Bitchy Fic. IJS.
Yes, but generally not completed fic of that length. It's not a posting area, like a mailing list or an archive. It's a workshop thread, where you ask for beta or opinions on an idea or help working through a particular point in the story.
Or, show off what you did.
But, yeah, short stuff.
