Because I have *fantastic* timing...

...I would have this all ready to go on a holiday weekend *facepalm*

I have been a busy little bee for the last week, working on a project that nearly spiralled out of my control ~ but I managed to reign it in at the last minute :P

Announcing:

[livejournal.com profile] luxken27_fics

This LJ was never meant to actually house fic, merely the author's notes to accompany said fic. However, posting Fleeting here at LJ has been a great boon; I absolutely love the interaction I have in the comments section with my readers. It's just not something I can get on any of the archives I post at, where communicating with reviewers is a chore, at best, and a monumental hassle, at worst.

So, to that end, I've been contemplating expanding my base here at LJ for quite awhile. I'm constrained by what I can post to FF.net, and I've found that quite a few people don't even bother using Media Miner (though I find it just as easy to navigate as FF.net *shrug*). Due to my...interactions...with the folks running the pairing-centric archives, I no longer feel welcome to share my work there.

So, now that I have the free time with my thesis finished, I bit the bullet and opened a community.

The great thing about LJ is you can build the archive whatever way you want, and my goal with this archive was to make it fully searchable. That's right, people, you're now free to enjoy however much (or however little!) of my fic that you want. Search by title, universe, length, rating, genre, or pairing. You only like my Inu/Kag? Pull it up! Prefer the way I write Sesshoumaru and Kagome? Or maybe Sess/Rin, or Mir/San? It's all there.

This archive will also be the exclusive home to Allegiance. If you have the series index bookmarked, that's cool ~ it's not going anywhere =) The links will just take you to the community now, instead of entries here at my LJ.

I have a new entry for that story almost ready to post, so keep an eye out for it!

Of course, me being me, I couldn't help but take a look at my stats after organizing the tags...

I have to say, I was somewhat surprised by the results:


Apparently I write a LOT of T-rated fic. And angst. And drama. LOL!

So, if you prefer reading fic at LJ, please feel free to join the comm! I will be moving away from posting actual fic at this journal, and will be updating the comm first (yes, even with those massive Nihon Idol chapters o.O) in the future.

Thanks again for all your support =)

Its nice to have a few different irons in the fire, keeps the muses fresh hehe :D

It does keep the muses fresh. Mine have this odd habit lately of popping out when I'm working on something else. I give in to them some, just to get the idea out before it disappears.

I'm trying to do better with being online. I'm getting my schedule under control so I'm finding little blocks of free time to doodle. The biggest problem now is getting the doodles posted!

As for creating the archive, that may be just the excuse I need to take a day off and do something for myself! ;) lol

Cool! =) I'll help you with organizing it, if you'd like, but as I said to eggplantlady further down, its up to you to decide how you want to do it before you start posting stuff. You can't back or forward date posts to communities, so if you wanna go in chronological order...you best know what that order is, LOL! :P

Cool! I'd love that! I'll find some time to get them all together first and hopefully get them organized in some semblence of order!

Hopefully, I can get some updating done tomorrow! I have a couple of things ready to roll!
