Subject: Welcome to the all-new, all-improved FICTIONALLEY!
Message-ID: <5913e6f80512011506j5f6ed8dbgb679def72736d1a1@...>
Oh, the loveliness that is FictionAlley's brand new, sparkly, shiny,
delicious search engine at
http://forums.fictionalley.org/fics/search.php ! Ships! Characters!
Ratings! Length! House! Genre! Hits! Word count! Spoilers!
Upload-date! It's finally all there.
Oh, the cleverness and organization that is the Story Management page
at http://forums.fictionalley.org/fics/story_management.php - there,
registered users (you must be logged in to see it properly) can see
all their fics on one page, edit the summary, ships, characters, era,
spoiler and rating information, upload new chapters, and yes, upload
new fics (in other words, we've reopened to submissions)!
Oh, the usefulness of an alphabetical listing of authors that shows
all of an author's fics in the same summary (here's the H's for an
example: http://www.fictionalley.org/authors/h.html ), and in line
with that, oh, the structure and brilliance of an author page that
lists all of an author's fics with summary, spoiler, hit, rating,
last-update, first-publication date and chapter count information!
(Mine is an example - http://www.fictionalley.org/authors/heidi .)
SO much love to everyone on Team FictionAlley, from Nostrademons, who
dreamed it three years ago, to Paul, Jason, Amber, Sabs, Xander,
Jeremie and everyone else who helped with the development of Links,
the precursor to this, as well as the building-out of this system,
Charles at Dragon.com who makes so much of this possible, and everyone
who helped migrate fics, code and process fics, particularly in this
last week where we cleared out the in-box, explain the old system
(tiresome as that became at times), and especially, every single
person who has ever submitted a fic to FictionAlley.
We're moving a little slow tonight as everything gets back in gear,
and not all ISPs have resolved to our new urls - if your fic is
already up there, we'd appreciate it if you waited a day or so before
editing the newly-included information - a lot of it has already been
incorporated from things like your Keywords - but I am so damned proud
to say that FictionAlley has reopened.
Come on, check it out - and don't forget to submit your essays to the
will-be-live-over-the-next-24-hours http://www.hpinkpot.com "house",
and have fun editing our new Wiki at http://www.hpwiki.com .
We hope you will enjoy it here on FictionAlley, where CREATIVITY IS MAGIC.

Message-ID: <5913e6f80512251839w67a1eeb7n364624702f83b65e@...>
FictionAlley's Holiday Surprise for the fandom is our new RSS feed,
which you can find at http://forums.fictionalley.org/fics/rss/ - if
you add it to your RSS reader, you'll get an update every time a new
chapter or fic is uploaded onto FA, or when something's been updated.
If you're on LiveJournal, visit
http://www.livejournal.com/friends/add.bml?user=fictionalleyorg to add
that feed, so when you read your friendslist on LJ, you'll get a post
for each new chapter, fic or update. You can also go to the main page
of the feed at http://www.livejournal.com/users/fictionalleyorg/ - as
of about 12 hours from now, it'll be populated with the most recent
uploads and updates.
