(Meta) In Chronological Order, Redux
So, a while back I posted a list of all my fic in chronological order. deird1 suggested that it would be a really useful index if it had links that you could click on to read each story; I apologised that I hadn't had time to do anything so ambitous.
So what does she do? She goes and creates the index for me.
And all she wants in return is a pony and my firstborn child...
So I spent today getting the pony crated up and put on a plane to Australia. The firstborn child will take a little longer to manage - a minimum of nine months longer, in fact. (And if any of the female members of my flist would like to help me with another little, um, creative project, let me know... We can't let deird1 down!)
So, here it is: all my fic in chronological order, from Hiywan's Story set in 6,000 BC to Earth That Was set in AD 2420. Now with clickable links!
