ficdiscussion - Profile (original) (raw)

on 10 June 2004 (#3435284)

Hello! This is, as you may have gathered from the title, a community for discussing fanfic - be it good fanfic, mind-numbingly bad fanfic or anything in between.

Rules
1. Recs are allowed, but include fandom and rating.
2. Ditto fic posting, but LJ cut the actual fic and include a summary, pairing and rating outside said cut. Go here to learn how to LJ-Cut. If you're not posting your own fic, state the author name.
Remember that by posting your fic here, you're inviting construcitve criticism as well as anything else you might expect - praise, etc.
3. While sashwizzled is a drama whore, she does admit that not many other people are - thus, the next rule: Try to be polite. Flaming, personal insults, etc. are not allowed, and anyone using them will be banned. Cos, let's face it, I can do that.
4. Specific fandom discussion is allowed, but only in terms of fanfic. 'I wonder when Harry Potter Book 6 will be out' doesn't constitue fanfic discussion. There are plenty of communities out there for that.

sashwizzled and rosehiptea are your moderators. Don't worry, we don't bite!

A few other communities of note:
fanficrants - a community for ranting... about fanfic.
marysues - seen a Sue? Created a Sue? Report it here.
goodfic - exactly what it says on the tin - aimed soley at Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter.
hp_conversation - discussion about all things Harry Potter; which houses were the Marauders in? Were there toilets in 1000AD? Find out about other HP fans' views here.
fixing_fandom - a comm trying to cut down badfic by helping people to become better as fanfic writers.

Also: If you own a fanfiction archive - or know of a really good one - let us know and we'll link to it.
