And there is fiction, and it is good (No, I'm not modest.)

Okay, I have posted my backlog of fic: one for Hitman (because there is something about Timothy Olyphant with a bar code that is just to die for, no pun intended), and two from SPN_Summergen: my WWI-era adventure (that you don't really need to know SPN the series to get), and my pinch-hit crossover with Neil Gaiman's Neverwhere---which explains it

The Pingback_bot is LJ pimping you out. It's notifying you when a link to one of your stories has been posted somewhere. So every time you post in a comm, it pings you.

Some people find it useful. (I hate it, and in a fit of crankiness reported it as a bot and banned it from everywhere, for whatever good it'll do.) You can turn it off by going to Profile, Settings, Privacy, and disabling it. It's down at the bottom of the list.

Thanks for the clarification. I suppose it would be good to know if I'm getting pimped, at least I'd know it was getting read. (The silence has been fairly deafening.)

I'm going to re-read and comment when I get off work. (Today is crazy-time around here.) It was quite thrilling to see your wonderful SPN WWI story go live last night. :)

I don't expect much for the Hitman story. That was mostly written for my own grins and giggles, and the fact that Foreverhermit adored my previous 47 ficlet. The others, though...it seems like SPN as a fandom is in the doldrums---not sure if it's because we're in reruns, or because season 5 put everyone through the wringer or what. It just isn't getting the enthusiastic responses we saw a year or so ago.

Hey, whenever you get to it is cool. I'm not miffed with my f'list as much as fandom in general. Sometimes, it feels like a bloody popularity contest, and I'm losing. I'm most ruffled about the pinch-hit, which got a very lackluster response at Summergen, including a back-handed comment from the recipient who asked for the story. "The War Correspondant" did good at Summergen, and a little more since, and the recipient loved it so much she commented twice. That's nice.
