View Full Version : Website to showcase your fiction

Hello everyone,
Falling into the shameless promotion category here I'm afraid. I've recently setup a website for writers to share their work with the world, review and be reviewed, add friends, chat in the forums and find out about competitions and news from the book world.
As it's just started there aren't many users yet and the forum functionality isn't as good as what we have here, but I'm hoping the site will be a helpful place for writers to showcase their work and get some advice and support from each other.
The site is at:
www.fictionfocus.com
There is still a fair bit of functionality that I'm hoping to develop and any feedback would be appreciated. There is a suggested improvements forum or you can post me here with suggestions.
Thanks for reading !
- Oh, obviously all copyright remains with the author and work can be removed from the site, hiden from the public view or edited at any time.

I'll volunteer. I can write really AWFUL Harry/Draco slash. With Mpreg, and liberal use of the words "throbbing member"! Ooh, I'm getting excited thinking about it.
In all seriousness, the site looks interesting. *grin* I'll check it out more thoroughly at work tomorrow, for sure.

Hello everyone,
Thanks for saying hello to me! Don't worry I won't just run away now I've done my promo. This site seems to be full of really cool pro-active people. I'm looking forward to getting involved.
Oh and vindemiatrix there have been a few "throbbing member" submissions to the site already - and no-one is objecting :wink:

Someone got there before me? Suck. I'll have to write twincest instead.
*shudder* Or... perhaps not.
I didn't even get time to check out your site today, but I think I shall most possibly be using it. Hopefully I won't have such an excellent book (whee Ender's Game) to distract me at work tomorrow. ^_^

Twincest is scary. It make me go all fetal-postion.
(And people try to tell me Hermione/Snape is wrong... at least they're not related. And the writers I read do a tastefull 'fade to black'.)

I'm actually a classic vanilla-jane type person who likes R/Hr.
Although I can handle a decently done Sn/Hr...even have a great idea for one that I might put down sometime.

This is the part where I don't comment on my own HP fanfic preferences, right? ^_~

Well I think you're duty bound now, really.

Marauder slash. Especially Sirius/Remus. With Sirius/James overtones. Yes, I am very shallow and do not include Peter in my slashy debacles.

That's because Peter is a rat, and not nearly as hot as the other Maurauders. ^_^
I'm not a huge slash fan, but I can deal if it's well written. I'm reading a rather good Harry/Draco right now, for example, which is a pairing I *never* thought I'd see well done. It's amazing what good writting can make you willing to accept.

I know. I don't mind Harry/Draco as a PAIRING, but the fanfiction... oh, dear god. Draco is a rich, stuck-up, cowardly TWERP. Why do people have to turn him into this sensitive depressed gothboy? ;__; And don't get me STARTED on Emo!Harry.
