I made a page with the submission info for the Legacy archive. It's not a very exciting page. It's here:

http://www.grapefruithead.com/ourboys/legacyfic.htm

It's mainly for sharing, for spreading the word, until we have space and a designer to build the permanent site.

I've also created the e-mail address legacyfic@rock.com for all relevant correspondance.

Also, I'm mad at Clark for the way he treated me tonight, and mad at the WB on principle.

Do what you gotta...

i'd host you, hon, but i'm going to be switching hosting services (also, choosing a new domain name) in the next few months.

if you don't mind the upcoming confusion of the move and what have you, just let me know and legacy.littlewingedwark.com is yours (...until we move to a new domain)

Okay, so, I think this is a good idea in principle. But how about a philosophical question -- shouldn't any fannish writer (or otherwise artist) be reluctant to designate a single piece as her "legacy," and choose a best or favourite work. Since after all, we should be always striving for ever greater, um, greatness. Right?

You make a good point. Perhaps we want to say that folks can submit a story, with the option to CHANGE their story down the line? This will, of course, require more archivists than just me. *g* But good idea!

See, I'd prefer that. Because right now, I know which story I'd pick as my best, but designating it as my "legacy" sounds so permanent. It sounds like I'm making a commitment to never write anything better. And that's just too depressing for words.

what you want, of course, is to set up that thing where a person can auto archive their story text and "tell us a bit about yourself" text. and then you are responsible for reviewing and making sure there's only one a piece and keeping it pretty and things.

easier said than done, as almost everything save breathing is.
