Re: yesterday, I was in the middle of posting when my computer died and I couldn't save the HTML. Again if you submitted a secret last week and you don't see it up by Friday, please resubmit it. Really sorry about that.

Re: copyright stuff, EDITED: WE HAVE A RESPONSE but it sucks, basically.

12) Links or I don't believe it. It's easy to call yourself a BNF, but you ain't one unless other people label you so. There are heaps of mediocre writers who bang out sure-fire tropes and pairings and get a mess of predictable squeeing replies, especially in big active fandoms. That means nothing.

Do you show up in almost every recc list for your fandom? Do people frequently discuss you or your fics on their own LJs? Do people wank about you? Has it reached Fandom_wank? Are you fangirled by strangers IRL? Do they give you unsolicited gifts? If you can't say yes to most if not all of these things, you are just an ordinary run of the mill hack.

Even in the largest fandoms only a few people really make a name for themselves, and then they do it by breaking out of the pack and giving fandom something distinctive and memorable. In a lot of cases "distinctive" is a euphemism for "batshit" so honestly being a BNF is not necessarily point of pride

34) Yea another rareshipper. Pimps community: [livejournal.com profile] fma_fuh_q. But honestly, Roy/Ed is freaking easy to pair. Dime a dozen. However, can a person find Father/Hohenheim fic? I think not.
