To authors:
If you're new here and wish to submit your works, read over the submission rules FAQ first. Any emails sent to me asking about something that is explained in this faq will be pointedly ignored. For returning authors, the rules are pretty much the same as before when I had the old archive. I am screening fics for quality, which means your work won't be visible until I approve it. However, I generally will open your account to pre-approved once your first fic passes muster so fear not. It's not that difficult to be approved for these archives, but I am trying to keep a certain standard of quality.

To readers: I've decided, upon kind request, to allow anon comments (meaning you no longer have to be a registered user to leave comments or rate a fic). Abuse of the system will result in reverting to the old members-only way of allowing comments. Use this power wisely - keep criticisms constructive as flames will be deleted.
However, comments are encouraged so if you've enjoyed a story, were confused or just have general comments to make please do! An author can't know how his/her audience has recieved the work unless you respond. Likewise, giving a story you've enjoyed a great deal a rating will encourage more people to read it so don't be shy. I know this because according to the archive statistics, those stories that have been rated or have feedback posted have a higher count of hits. I encourage you on behalf of all the authors to be generous - but respectful - with your feedback.

Please note the posts in the news section for important announcements concerning the archive. Thank You.
