Hello everybody.  Parents got sick, so I had to step up to babysit for half the day every day this week (sister-in-law returned to work a few weeks back).  That cut into my writing time hugely, so I only finished Climbing Together this morning. 33,000 words and off to Hiryo.  This means that I will be voting for Fate, because it’s the only story I know I could finish a chapter by the end of the month. And as a reminder, there was no carry over effect this month. 

SO, the winner is… Magic of the Force.  It brought in a total of 2,159 with 87 votes coming from Fanfic. 

Fate Touched in Middle Earth came in second place, with my 400 votes and 58 from over on fanfic it brought in a total of 1,636. 

Bhaalson Remodel brought in only 831 votes, with 28 of them from over on fanfic. 

Hmmm… okay.  So, I am going to try to get out Magic of the Force by the end of the month.  The key word will be try.  I will probably need to cut down and summarize several scenes rather than show them in POV, but I will try.

In other news, did everyone see… last week or the week before? Anyway, fanfic went down for me.  I am wondering if that was a web browser thing or if everyone ran into that issue. 

Because of that, I am wondering, once I’m done with the ATP rewrite this month (it did occur to me to try and do that, but I wanted to follow the votes, and I want all my HP only fans to have something new this month even if you might not be able to read it before the month ends LOL) if you all think I should take a few weeks to port my stories from fanfic over to A03.  I haven’t looked at any other story sharing sites either.

I will also be posting the Ranma Poll for May tonight, and the May Patron Only Poll tomorrow. As I am still in a One Piece mood, Stallion will once more be in the Ranma poll.

Hope you all have a nice weekend.

Hmmm, Maybe try QQ (Questionable Questing) fo a host sight as well. AO3 can be a bit tedious to navigate for the uninitiated. QQ also has a NSFW section so you don't have to worry too much about getting lambasted like other sites.

Given how often Fanfiction.net seems to break lately; yes, immigrate over to AO3 and possibly other sites as well as soon as feasibly possible.

Randon fun thought, if you need a few extra days for Magic, why not release it on the 4th?

Considering all thats happened ro ffnet past few years it couldnt hurt to copy over to ao3 and it may net you some fresh followers you just have to be careful of mentioning you have a patreon as some like EsquireBot (CopyKnight) (they freely admit to doing so on discord channels) and others like them dont hesitate to stick you in to admins , maybe consider qq aswell theyre more relaxed on authors having patreon

I wouldn't mind seeing the stories get added to AO3. And the thing with FFN happened to me too, so it wasn't just you bud.

Id recommend having copies on other sites, ff has been slowly breaking over the past 7ish years so ...

I'd be very excited to see you fully port over your works to AO3, FF.net has been attempting to strangle itself for months now. AO3 will only request you label the stories with smut by their appropriate ratings, and will be a bit more harsh on Patty R On mentions, but not too much more than FF.net does already. I'd recommend you link in a QQ, twitter, Tumblr, etc page that can directly link back to Patreon.

i've recently been becoming a much bigger fan of AO3. i still prefer FF.net ina lot of ways but i'm fully supporting of crossposting on both sites
