A big load of RANDOM
Aug. 10th, 2007 05:42 pmChapter 13 of January by Musca has been posted - though I think most of my flist already knows by now. It was up this morning when i checked my email. She is SO under appreciated at PK, I hate it. READ HER STUFF! AND REVIEW!
Chapter 5 of Accio Life by JazzyGeorgie was ALSO updated earlier this week. I forgot to post about it. ANOTHER under appreciated writer.
OHHH - a tidbit of information about getting around TOS rules and such, if LJ actually does a search for URL active links, ONE way to get around that is to not post the URL as a link, but to put the address of the link in your post, just not hyperlinked - there are VARIOUS ways to do that. Either putting in hxxp://whatever.your.url.is OR just doing the www.whatevertheurlis.com [you just wanna make sure it doesn't work as a hyperlink from your post, that's how it's tracked.]
And just because I'm looking at this other page while updating:
upsa_daisy has posted some BEAUTIFUL STOCK ICONS.
I'm ON A ROLL!!! I completed the 3rd season of ER by watching the DVDs at home, one DVD an evening. AND NOW I HAVE THE 4TH SEASON ON DVD!! See, I wait YEARS to buy the DVD seasons because they're usually around $20 at Half Price Books, and that's a STEAL. So I have seasons 1-4 on DVD now, and I don't think I've spent over $100 for these. SO awesome. Saving money is made of WIN.

January is brilliant - it takes a bit of focus and attention to pick up on all the subtleties, but that's what I love. The good writers just happen to put things together so nicely and then the story just pulls it off so nicely and then you're just like - whoa.
♥ What can I say? I'm dedicated to H/Hr, and that means giving more PR to the right ship. OUR ship.
[You're welcome] *hugs*

I've pared down the only smutty scene in mine SO much that it hardly has any smut, and that scene hasn't occurred yet, so I doubt it's the smut that people read January for :D I've hardly read any fanfic in the last year or so actually, except for a peek here and there mainly leading up to DH and after, and that's possibly my problem: I have no idea what people are up to. It helps to know your audience ;)

As for knowing your audience - I suppose, but [imo], a writer can pull in any reader if the content is such that it's just...absolutely- it just sucks you in.
Sometimes though, the best ones slip through the cracks...

Date: 2007-08-12 07:21 am (UTC)Oh, because I started with a PG stupidly and gave no warning about upping it later. So I don't think it's fair to go beyond PG13. I don't know if I can write smut in PG13 even, even minimal, implied smut ;) . Oh well. It's done; this particular chapter needs that step, so...oh well.
You're so sweet, thanks :)
