another DW announcement!
Apologies to anyone who's seen this out of me in 16 different places. Mostly I'm posting it so it's actually on my LJ. Anyway, I keep totally changing my mind about how I'm dealing with dreamwidth, but I think what I'm doing is this:
- Moving! I'm going to post my fic over there in the future, because they are nicer about the kind of fic I tend to write (okay, the kind of fic I used to write) and because they have bigger posting limits so I don't have to break up longer stories. (Hey, it happened once! It might happen again!)
- I'll post announcements here that there is new fic, just like I'd post here if I wrote something and stashed it in a community.
- There is atrata_dw if you don't plan on moving to dreamwidth and do not trust that I will remember to post announcements. And, of course, there are the rss and atom feeds if you want to go the feed-reader route instead of the LJ/IJ/DW/whatever route.
- Locking fic offends my sensibilities, and I will not do it, ever; access to that journal won't be a problem for anyone. If you want to comment with openid, or anonymously, or not at all, everything's good with me.
- I imported all my entries, and then I deleted some of them, and then I deleted the rest of them. Then I imported more, and then I deleted them again. I am tentatively planning to break that ridiculous cycle and stop importing things and just start with an empty journal. I'm not quite sure I see the point of importing. I'll just post fic there going forward, and try to make it clear that the best place to find pre-DW fic is here or on my website.
- The non-fic account is here, and that's where I'll be posting regularly and hanging out. I've already started doing that, in fact, and this is not an advocacy post but I really fucking love it over there. Anyway. I am not sure what to call the non-fic account; I don't post fic there, but I babble fannishly and spout off about the many exciting aspects of my life, of which fandom is a big part. Anyway. My RL account here at LJ is entirely f-locked; the one at DW is not locked at all. I haven't figured out how much of it I'm going to be locking in the future, but I do plan to be fairly open with the access until I figure it out, at which point I'll reassess. I don't know about subscriptions just yet; I'm trying to balance the people I already know, the people I've been secretly and not-so-secretly stalking for five years now, new people who seem awesome, and the fact that I can only handle reading about 150 journals regularly before I get fired from my job. Right now I might as well be closing my eyes and clicking the mouse button; my subscribing/accessing/whatevering is about that methodical.
- And that's it! I will not say anything else about this, and my profile has been updated to reflect what's going on, and I will go back to posting a story in a new and completely random fandom every six weeks or whatever. I hope you all are well in the meantime, though. <3
