I Think I Have It Figured Out

[ithildin]

So the Blackraptor Magnificent Seven fic archive has always confused me. Not as a reader, but as a writer. There were all these sections and some were just for people who don't have their fic on a website and other sections for people who do and I was never quite sure which was which. But thanks to Nancy over on the MoM email list, I think I have it figured out -- mostly.

So this morning, I submitted a link to the Chris section maintainer, and another one to the all Seven maintainer. I'm still not sure what to do with the ones that fall between the cracks though; I think there needs to be a 'Some of the Seven' category! [g] So I think I'll just not submit links for those ones so I don't screw it up.

It was much easier when all I wrote were Ezra stories!

I'm so glad you posted your stories to Blackraptor.
When I first found Mag7 fanfic, about 4 years ago,
it was through the Blackraptor site. And I still
go there to find new fic and reread old favorites. :)

Now I'm less confused, I'll submit some of my story links there. I think the majority will still end up on the All Ezra archive with my proclivities [g]

did the link you submitted go to lj? or was it to somewhere else?

maybe i should submit links... hmmmm....

[ithildyn.livejournal.com]

To LJ. I do have my own fic archive where I'll eventually archive it all, but I'm so behind I keep putting it off :)

Hi.
I'm a newcomer to M7 fanfic, although I've loved the series at first sight.
This is the first time I hear of this archive. Could you supply the link, please? That would be awesome.
Thanks.

Oh yay! I bookmarked it. I just found a Chris archive too one minute ago. I'm happy.

Good :)

Here's how I do it...

[blackraptor-m7.livejournal.com]

If a story has three of the seven or fewer as the main character, then, I list on each of those characters pages. If it has 4 or more, it can go on Tales of the Seven. If none of the Seven are main characters, and they are just mentioned in the story, then, it's not really an M7 fic, and I'm not sure what to do with those, either.

Math! Yay! LOL Actually, that helps. I have fic with three, or five, or two, and didn't know where to send it :)

This archive is effectually stealing my time (and eating my brain:)) for a week now:).

[ithildyn.livejournal.com]

Check out this authour archive. Really good stories: http://www.nottasha.com/fanfic.htm

I think I came across that name, but I'll check anyway. Thanks for advice:).
