Bluster's new auto-archive

is up and running. I'm excited. And I haven't written a word of MFU in months. :)
I discovered the wonders of automated archives in the "other" fandom and they are simply great. I haven't uploaded any MFU to Bluster's yet, but I think I'll ponder that ponder just a bit ...

What Kellie said. I'd love for this to be as complete a slash archive as possible. Hopefully as new people come to the fandom they can use the archive as a resource to find as many slash stories as possible in one location. I'd really love to get people, such as yourself, who have older zine stories that maybe haven't been online before to consider archiving the older stories. Too many of the older stories are unavailable to newer fans who either don't buy zines or the zines are no longer available.

I understand wanting the first story to be something new to the 'net. The archive will always be open to uploads so if you decide you want to archive all of your slash stories on the automated archive in the futre that would be wonderful!

I've been pretty much an online writer. I think only about half a dozen of my stories went to zines, and most of those have been posted to File 40 recently. It'd be nice to put a "fresh" one in youse guyses archive. Maybe the one from RS7 -- I don't think I've posted that one.

I love the idea of fresh fiction. I also hope the idea of a new archive will get people writing new stuff, since I'm such a fiction hog. I *love* to read, although lately I haven't been reading nearly enough. The neat thing about C&GM is that it's up to you what you upload and when you upload it. So if down the line you want to archive the stuff that's on file 40 at C&CM as well you're more than welcome to do so, but if you don't want to that's fine as well.
