[personal profile] lacygrey posting in [community profile] writethisfanfic
Hi there! How is the fanfic writing going today? Are you...writing? editing? betaing? posting? or something else entirely?

I was really impressed with the number of people who participated in the poll yesterday and interested by the results.

In part, this was because I tend to think in 'screenfuls' as I write - I like there to be some significant event in each screenful and try to make sure there's an incentive in the story for the reader to pull down on the scroll bar - I guess I wanted to know if that makes sense with respect to people's reading habits. After all, a computer screenful doesn't mean anything on a cell phone's tiny screen.

Today the discussion topic is about posting. It's kind of the same question as yesterday's first one. Do you find that you post in the same places where you read?

Can I ask what your nonexistent fandom is?

Since 95% of the things I've written are in nearly-nonexistent or inactive fandoms (mostly book-based), I can empathise. One is in a fandom with only 24 fics for both book and movie; it's received seven hits.

(Random note: I love your username and icon!)
