Fic announcement: Long Journey Home

[xtricks.livejournal.com]

Hey -

New writer in an old fandom... two parts of a series that crept up on me despite the fact I haven't (yet) seen the show.  Season 3 (with the pilot is on order though)!

For some reason, my link/cuts aren't working and I must apologize for that.

How can you write about it if you haven't seen it?

[xtricks.livejournal.com]

Because I've read a heck of a lot of the fiction out there, as well as some of the transcripts from the show and so forth. And set the story after the end of the series to avoid conflict with existing canon.

That used to mystify me, too, until I read some excellent Man From UNCLE fic a while back by someone who not only had never seen the show, but for whom English was a foreign language. ::shrugs:: People and talents differ. As long as character is not fatally subverted, I'll go along for the ride.

Hello there! I just went to go read your stories, but they're protected entries, so I can't. Is there any chance of you removing the protection?

[xtricks.livejournal.com]

I'll do my best, all entries in that journal seem to be protected and I don't know why. I didn't set it, but I'll go take a look.

[theamusedone.livejournal.com]

It could just be that they're all friend protected! I hope you figure it out, I would quite like to read what you've come up with!

Unprotected

Yup, fixed it now. Should be availible for public reading.

The community is members-only; usually what's posted there is a lot more meta and/or requests for beta readers ...

[theamusedone.livejournal.com]

Ah! That would explain everything! Huh, maybe I will have to head that way and join *G*.

[the-star-fish.livejournal.com]

It might be a good idea to post the story in your own journal, too ... the comm is members-only, and unless people join, they won't be able to read the entries.

Thanks for straightening me out on that. I've put my stories on the ds archive, and will stop loading them into ds writers.

Generally, the archive is for finished stories. It would be better to post the chapters to your own livejournal and then post the entire betaed, checked version to the archive.

loves!

Thanks! Now if only I could get the dang post office to deliver my CDs I'd be good! Greatness even! Didn't know you were a dS fan!
