If we ever leave a Legacy --

I had this idea. I need some help, though. Like domain space, an archivist, and a designer. *g*

But my idea is this:

I want to make a multifandom archive where every fic writer leaves one of their own stories, as a legacy for the future of fanfiction. Any genre, you know. Whatever. Your favorite story or your best story or your most significant or whatever. Oh, and we probably will need every author to write a little blurb about why she's leavig this as her legacy, too?

I'm not sure. Mostly I'm distracting myself from working on this book marketing map. But the consensus here [wearemany, furies, pene] seem to think this is a good idea. Does anyone want to help?

I don't own a domain and can't design for shit. But you know who you need, right?

You need Shrift.

*cackles, runs away fast before Shrift can catch me*

Hmmm. My legacy fic. What would it be? Hmmm.

see, now this is a kick-ass idea.

i can't design for shit, i've never archived a thing in my life, but my domain is... well, it's just me and my fic at the moment. so, you know, should you come up short on the domain-hunting thing i could offer up a sub-domain or some such. yeah. but, still, legacy fic is a rocking idea, and i'd be curious to see which stories people would pick.

This is a fabulous idea, beyond all fabulous-ness.

And I may not be great with all the fancy coding techniques, but I'm good with *aesthetic* design.

What a wonderful, wonderful idea.

[pondering current hosting plan] How much space do you think you'll need?

I think it's a fantastic idea. I'm willing to help out if it gets off the ground!

I'll act as an archivist, though I doubt I'll have time to do it all by myself. Just let me know if you need me.

That's a good idea!

*thoughtful* I can be a designer, probably, if you need.
