Ooh! What's your kink big bang bunny? N3 I hope? We could use another novel length fic in the fandom. I think Dira and LadyGray and I might be the only ones on LJ to post anything that long and we know Dira will never do another.

I have some pretty strong opinions about posting my fic off LJ - thus me dropping out of [livejournal.com profile] bau_bigbang - but as long as I post it myself I should be able to have control over it on an LJ comm. It's fic where the comm mod posted it (like remix comms where it's anonymous) that make me a bit nervous, but I do them anyway as long as the people seem reputable. Mostly I have a huge problem with comm mods who not only expect you to post the fic in their archive, but they *disallow* authors from publishing it on their *own* LJs. /mind boggles/ I'm sorry, but me writing a fic for your prompt does not give you the right to tell me what I can do with my own fic. Um, no.

Mostly I don't crosspost my fic to pairing specific comms because I abhor whoring fic out via mindless excessive crossposting. We're a fairly small fandom. We don't need five postings for people to find fic. That said, to support my friends who run pairing specific comms I try to write a lot of fic for their challenges. (Thus owing 12 fic to [livejournal.com profile] eppescest.) So yeah, I'd be all for a rejuvenated comm there. The pairing used to be popular, but it's gotten overshadowed by excessive Charlie/Colby love. I'm all for a resurgence in the cest section of the fic supermarket. ;-)
