I finally buckled down to the Very Important task of updating my fiction index. I'd been meaning to consolidate all the multi-post stories on Dreamwidth anyway, and while I was at it I updated the story headers, finally getting rid of some of the mailing list artifacts that aren't really necessary anymore.

For one thing, I had great big asterisked and allcapped warnings about the slash content. It was a good idea ten years ago, when a lot of people didn't actually know what slash was and might very well click on a story expecting either lots of gore or perhaps fiction about Guns N' Roses. Now, however, I feel that "warning" about slash sends a negative message that I certainly don't want to perpetuate, and the information about slash is pretty well known these days. Especially when the pairings are right there in the headers anyway. One day, I will have to go through and update the mailing list formatting, which means going through and changing all the asterisks to emphasis or whatever. Today, however, is not that day.

Updated Fiction Index on Dreamwidth (All the stories are consolidated into single posts here)

Updated Fiction Index on Livejournal (Stories longer than LJ's 10,000-word/60K limit are split into parts)

I also added download links to all the podfic versions I've made of stories. Since I've never actually posted them to my journal before, here's the complete list of podfics:

because fic should be heard (at a safe volume, of course)

I didn't want to jinx myself by posting about it until I'd actually, you know, done it, but I'd like to announce that I'm participating in the

amplificathon (say that three times fast! ;))

( So, why am I doing this? Because I can't knit!!!!! )

Anyway, if you're at all interested in audio fanfic, go to the Amplificathon community and check it out. It's only been about a week and there are already tons of stories posted in some darned obscure fandoms. (Unfortunately, I haven't had time to actually *listen* because I've been recording, there's irony for you...)

The following is an index of all my fanfiction. The main title links will go to the Dreamwidth version, since Dreamwidth allows for longer--and therefore single-file--posts. The Livejournal links will follow, with links to all the parts if needed. You can also find these stories archived at my author page on Archive of Our Own and on Skyehawke. Please note that I've backdated each story to its original posting date, which is why you may suddenly find yourself in a part of the journal dating to before its actual creation.

I have also made a downloadable .zip file of plain-text versions of all my stories for your convenience.

I have also made recordings of some of the stories. You can find all my recordings gathered in my podfic folder on Megaupload, and also on my author page at the Audiofic Archive. There are also links to the individual files on this index, and on the story posts.

You will find a highlight bar at the top of each of my stories with a content statement. I will notify in that space about any violence or sexual content; if a story contains rape, incest, underage sex, child abuse, or character death; or if there is no such content in the story.

Re-archiving the material posted here is fine, so long as the text remains as-is and I am credited as the author/creator, and so long as I retain the right to ask for the material to be removed from the archive. Individual distribution through e-mail or file-sharing is also okay.

If you wish to record, remix, illustrate, continue, parody or otherwise create another fanwork of any of my stories, please feel free to do so (even if I've already made a recording, illustration, sequel, etc.). All I ask is that you link back to the original story at one of the links below or at Archive of Our Own. If you feel you need to edit the work for recording or other non-text reproduction, go ahead, but I would appreciate a note on the new work if the edits are substantial ones. Notification is nice, but not necessary. If, however, you wish to make a podfic and don't want to duplicate one I've already done, you might want to check with me to see what I'm already in the process of recording.

These are copies of the stories that used to be hosted at dmarley.mattachine.com. That site is no more, so if you have links that direct to it, please update them to the links on this journal or to the files on Archive of Our Own. Thanks!

For some reason, it never occurred to me before that I should, you know, maybe use this journal to archive my stories. Crazy idea, I know.

Actually, with my web site vanishing a while back, I'm thinking some redundancy might be nice. I do have a page at Skyehawke, but if something happens over there there are only about fifty billion fandom/specialty archives that have copies of various stories of mine. I need to be prepared!

I've already worked out the uploading kinks (for the most part) by practicing on my GreatestJournal and JournalFen accounts, and I'm about to start uploading over here, too. If all goes well, you who have me friended should notice nothing at all. When I'm done, I'll be posting a master story index, and will feel accomplished and redundified.

Current Mood: Analytical

I seem to have agreed to run a panel at next year's Xanadu. In fact, I think the words "I'd be glad to help with the media panels" at one point escaped my lips. (And if not, they have now because

pktheater will have just read them.)

( More about Xanadu and my panel idea )

Anyway, I'm pretty excited about it. I've rather enjoyed getting up and talking in front of strangers since that speech class I took in 10th grade, and it'll be nice to get the chance to meet and talk with some of the local writers.

Current Mood: Enthusiastic

z_rayne posted this link to "Television's Afterlife", an article from the Toronto Star about fan fiction. I read it and thought it was well worth spreading around. Unlike many articles, this one seems fairly well-researched and is nicely un-sensationalized. A nice change of pace, that.

Sobel, Dava. Longitude: The True Story of a Lone Genius Who Solved the Greatest Scientific Problem of His Time. New York: Walker and Co, 1995. (Also available in an Illustrated Edition, which I recommend. The A&E network also made a very good four-hour movie based on the book, which you might be able to find for rent or at a library.)

This lovely little book chronicles the story of John Harrison, the man who finally created the first reliable marine timekeeper, and thus solved the problem of finding longitude at sea. Along the way, Sobel gives a concise yet detailed picture of the "longitude problem" as it stood in the 1700s, managing to convey the enormity of the issue, and the effect it had on the lives of every sailor who braved the seas. Very good for getting a feel for the methods of navigation that weren't possible in the 1720s.

Current Mood: Hungry

Well, in a fit of efficiency, I not only updated my page, I finally formatted and posted my last long-expired zine story, "Passing." It's a Stargate SG-1/Due South crossover, Jack O'Neill/Ray Kowalski and a bit of Jack O'Neill/Daniel Jackson UST. It's about 50K long, so I'm just going to link to it on my newly-restored website for now and post it here in a few days.

http://dmarley.mattachine.com/stories/passing.htm

I also, in a further bit of efficiency and/or avoidance, created a quickie gallery of Boo pictures:

http://dmarley.mattachine.com/boo/boo.htm

I should probably mention that "Passing" is the last of my zine stories waiting to be posted. Any productivity I seem to have exhibited in the last couple of years has been mostly illusory, since I've merely been posting old zine stories as they've expired. I haven't completed a new Stargate story--or a story in any fandom, for that matter--in, um, something like two years (Geah!). It's not that I'm not writing. I've spewed out oodles of the stuff. It's just that I haven't seemed to be able to produce anything but my cathartic Bad!Fic that I will nevernevernever be cruel enough to expose on anyone's eyes but my own. I'm not discouraged or depressed or anything about it, though. I seem to be just as happy and fulfilled writing horrendous Bad!Fic as I am writing "good" stories. This should probably worry me more than it does.

That said, one of my goals is to finish something, anything, and get back in the groove again. I love writing fan fiction, and I'd love to get back into public production. We'll see how it all goes.

Current Mood: Efficient

Yes, I finally got off my butt and told the server owner about the issues with my website, and it took him approximately .03 seconds to fix it. Now all I have to do is update it for the first time since, oh, June 27. Maybe plunging myopically into updates will keep my stomach from knotting up every time I look at the television.

Edited to note that last update was June 27, 2002. Need to be a geek more.

I have the flu. It's meme time.

Current Mood: Thera-flued

In response to the responses to

destina's already-famous post,

zvi_likes_tv said in this post:

Underlying my viewpoint is a distrust in the ability of authors to argue from the text they actually published as opposed to the story in their head. [...] Too often, I think authors take the position that their intentions, motivations, and interpretations are the important part of a story, regardless of whether or not those are communicated to the audience.

( This got me thinking )
