blamebrampton: 15th century woodcut of a hound (Default)

Anyone know the ffnet maintainers?

Because I think it is admirable that they are attempting to encourage standards, despite all evidence to the contrary, however: 

"Please note that it can take up to 4-8 hours for your story to be publically listed and be available through the search engine."

does not inspire the confidence it could.


And, for something mostly different. [profile] calanthe_fics  is one of my favourite writers, though I suspect that she enjoys torturing me. MONTHS after posting the last thing she wrote, she is back in the land of fic production. Her new story is here, and it's called Gush. As to the torture, well, it's as well written as all her stuff, set during the Harry stalking Draco part of HBP (my fave fanon period!) and involves manipulations and mind games.

And the sort of kink that has me squealing and hiding behind my hands. Because I am easily sent into the Doctor Who Watching Position.

What sort of kink, you ask? Well, she rejected my suggestion that she call it Floods of Passion, if that's any help. It's brilliant stuff, showing just exactly how far Draco Malfoy was prepared to go to keep his secrets that year (quite some way indeed!)

Mwah!

Thank you! I get home to find my inbox so full of membership requests that it's gone over the page!

Oh that would be the far more useful Marguerite, who was sensible enough to link to your actual fic com! (I am not very bright sometimes, but I can lift very heavy things!)

Is that because of your low centre of gravity?

V. keen to read Gush but can't access it. Do I need to ask for membership in some comm? Couldn't see instructions on the site (probably as am a thicko). I'm asking, anyway. I did friend you as calanthe_fics but that by itself hasn't done the trick. Help?

It's now unlocked on my lj.
