Blather About Fanfiction

Geocities Is Dead

2010-01-31T20:10:22Z

Twelve+ years wasn't a bad run for a free service, I suppose.

At any rate, just as a priority to myself, this means:
1. I'll need to upload a few fics to BSMFN archive.
2. I want to finish up SDKLR's Prolific section.
3. I'll be choosing another Geocities site to recreate for my summer project. It will probably be another fic archive (I have one in mind, actually) if it hasn't already been moved elsewhere.

Oh, so you mean you can still find DK stuff online?

And because everyone needs reminding now and then (especially you new writers)...Overused Fanfic Ideas.
http://www.sempai.org/~tonbo/fanfiction/overused.html

In fanfiction news, I've been patiently tracking down Geocities DK sites for whenever Geocities dies. I haven't figured out what to do quite yet but I do have a LOT of history saved. My goodness. The things we'll lose when Geocities dies is staggering.

Geocities Closing Down

2009-05-10T20:20:03Z

With the news Geocities is on its last legs and closing down later this year, I've gone into "fiction rescue mode" again. Pretty much if I've linked to your site here and it's on Geocities, I harvested your content. If I can't find it online after Geocities goes boom, expect it to be hosted on lethesbanks.

Update to The Best Sailor Moon Fanfiction on the Net

2009-03-09T19:51:05Z

BSMFN

All stories (except for the one requested to be removed by the author) are now either put online OR linked to the author's website.

I'm now considering BSMFN static unless I get back into reading "new" fanfiction and decide to start adding my own story choices.

Sardonyx's This's Nothing!

2009-02-23T01:28:19Z

This's Nothing!

Sardonyx is best remembered for her quirky writing style in the DK portion of fandom. I was lucky enough to find all her writings, and am now hosting them on my site. The site may look a little different from what you last remember, but I promise the content is the same.

+Gradient

2009-01-01T02:47:33Z

http://gradient.tripod.com/

+Gradient is one of the better SM writers to be discovered, and I was pleasantly surprised to find the site was still alive. You won't go wrong with any of them. Most fics are set around the S timeline; Saturn is a favorite topic.

The Scrumdiddlyumptious Dark Kingdom Love Revival

2008-10-09T03:05:26Z

With a lot of patience and perseverance, I have uncovered the majority of the work from the SDKLR. I am hosting Soylent Green's fics here. Her fanart is coming soon as well.

As you may recall, she had a fairly large selection of high quality submitted fanfics as well. Those were rescued earlier and can be found here, at another DK old-timer's site. I think I've rescued a few more than this from oblivion, so I'll add those when/if I get the time and inclination.

All this has been done sans permission from the artist formerly known as Soylent Green, so as much as it pains me (given that I've been dying for some SDKLR since geocities ate the site in 2003/2004,) if she comes knocking I will remove it. With a lot of teeth-gnashing. And wailing. And some wally-wallys, too.

I got into this crazy fanfiction and fanart stuff through Sailor Moon's Dark Kingdom. In honor of that, take some links. I'm leaving it the actual URL in case you need to hunt these down in Archive.org at some point in the future.More to be added if and when I find them.

Just testing out the new place...

Well, things look nice 'round these parts, and it never hurts to have a backup journal. I suspect I'll be keeping this as a fic-log. So I suspect. We shall see.
