Mailing list for all you who wanted a mailing list

Further to the poll from a million years ago about a mailing list for my fic updates, I've made a mailing list for my fic updates.

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Mhalachai_fanfic/

It will be mainly for fic updates in the WIPs:
Inevitable (AB/HP) (mostly I made this for Inevitable)
Switchback (AB)
Balancing Act (AB/SG1)
Dawning Light (BtVS/AB)
Candlelight (BtVS/AB)

Not the one-shots. Unless I later decide to do so. Because it's my group.

So if you prefer to get an email in your box when I've got an update, instead of poking around on LJ, feel free to join. It's unmoderated, baby.

Just a tip, after your group is set up and the joining frenzy has settled down, moderate the group. I found that my group, when unmoderated, was hassled by spammers quite a bit (a pain, let me tell you). As soon as they discover your groups unmoderated, you'll get hit in waves. The way I got rid of them was moderating it.

I hit the button on the forms that said the group was not listed in the directory, hopefully that will hold off the spammers for a few days. But good advice, thank you.

Doh! I should mention that by 'moderating' it, I mean approving memberships.

Any chance you'll release Inevitable (when it's done) in a mobile format for those of us geeks who want to put it on our PDA's and carry it with us?

I'd also be happy to see what you've written so far in one file (html, text, or pdf) format so I can import it ...

I do know TTH has a "view all story" function, which by this point for Inevitable is liable to break your computer. Go to http://www.tthfanfic.com/wholestory.php?no=6214

And I'm not sure what sort of format PDAs can read. Lemme know and I'll see what I can do.

I've got the complete story in a chaptered PDF file here. It's a bit big (4.3 MB and over 1000 pages) but if you want, I can send it to you.

I'd love that if mhalachai doesn't mind. :)

[identity profile] mhalachaiswords.livejournal.com 2006-08-18 06:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Mhalachai whole-heartedly approves.

[identity profile] crazy-vasey.livejournal.com 2006-08-18 07:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay then, I'll need an e-mail address to send it to and then I'll get on it. Send me a message at crazy_vasey@yahoo.com if you don't want to post your address publically.

O_o

one THOUSAND pages? Good god. I never shut up.

we like you like that. don't stop.

[identity profile] taligator.livejournal.com 2006-08-18 05:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, like I said, text, html (no graphics), or PDF format is fine.

There is a program called mobipocket that can be downloaded and you can import those files into the correct format. It's really all I need. :)

I'll try the view all story ..

When I get done (note how it's a "when" not an "if") I'll look into that, thanks :D

Coolness!

*pokes*

Been working 60-hour weeks. Not a lot of time for writing; work's sucking the creativity out of me. I have vacation in a week, hopefully I can get to writing then.

OMG! I'm so sorry. seriously I know that sucks. I'm on vacation now thank God! so I really hope that you enjoy yours. do you have anything planned for it? *hugs*

*waves* Hullo, I've started reading AB novels recently, and went gaga over AB crossover fics... Your story Inevitable and Balancing Act is really good! That 60 hour work week sounds really tough... Hopefully you'll be able to update your fics once those muses start coming back. *hugs* Good luck!

[identity profile] mhalachaiswords.livejournal.com 2006-08-20 05:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Glad you like the stories, I'm having a blast writing them :D There's something about AB that sparks my imagination.

I'm on vacation in a week, for a week, so I imagine I can get a good start on fic in that week. Mainly, I just can't wait for a chance to relax!
