Archiving potential

May 01, 2022 16:04

I don't know if there is even anyone around who would have a comment on this, but I've been thinking these fics should be archived somewhere where people can find them. I haven't checked to see how much of the art is still available, but I suspect at least some has been lost to time.

Having recently seen an entire old fanfic archive added to AO3, I figure I can do the same for our half dozen fics.

Here's my loose game plan
1) Set up a bigbanghood AO3 account
2) Create BBH collection. If any of you have already uploaded your fic to AO3, you can add to that list
3) Figure out who has already posted their fics so I'm not splitting their views and can bookmark them if not added to collection
4) Repost fics (including header information and note about the original timing and setup of this challenge) on BBH account and collection

Things I haven't decided and am open to suggestions
-Do I post them at the current date or back date them to 2009?
-Not sure how to handle tagging since I know some of these fic definitely had things that should be tagged for. But I guess if I include the original headers (and a note to check them for notes/warnings) it might be good enough.
-Come to think of it, we did put headers on each chapter, not sure I always need to include them on an AO3 post. When in doubt I probably will.

If anyone has objections to me reposting your work before I get to it let me know here (or still jedi_of_urth on AO3); and you're still free to tell me to take it down after I post it, I'm not trying to step on anyone's toes. If you'd rather post on your own account that makes total sense after all.
