the return of internet housekeeping
Not a lot of writing today -- about 100 more words on the "Secrets" epilogue, plus some revision of the preceding parts to nudge the conversation along more useful lines.
Instead I did laundry and some other household chores, then formatted a bunch of short Homestuck fics for ff.net (which eats a bunch of things, possibly still including my normal line breaks) and stuck them up: the remaining four Alpha timeline fluff fics ("Hollywood Shenanigans" was already there), the four parts of the "Alternian Nights" sequence, "Gifts Unlooked For," and "And the Big Bad Wolf." I also posted "Dedication," which is a Susan POV Narnia ficlet about the first year after LWW -- it's kind of a disaster story told in my best approximation of grace.
...
I am probably tempting fate with this paragraph, but I admit that I wonder how long it will take the vultures to start shrieking about interactivity, since some of the aforementioned Homestuck fics are in second person. They are not interactive in the slightest -- for one thing, they are all complete, so there is no conceivable opportunity for audience participation -- but upon reading the fic posting guidelines, I noted that the ff.net administrators have STILL not clarified their terribly worded rule one way or the other, so I expect the idiots are still darkening the digital skies, so to speak, and have yet to learn the difference between interactive and non-interactive uses of second person. *sigh*
I should get to work on formatting and posting my back catalog of fics to AO3, too. I don't really want to post my Harry Potter stuff until I finish "Secrets" and can start with that story, but I could probably do the miscellaneous fandoms one or two a day. Or maybe start with "The Way of the Apartment Manager" and run through all my Naruto fic instead. *ponders* Ah well, we'll see. I am fundamentally lazy, after all, and crossposting years-old stories is not very high on my priority list, especially since they're all available through my journal already.
