Misc announcements

[bridgetmkennitt]

I started my grad program yesterday, so please give me some time to answer emails and comments. I gave a quick lookthrough of fics and didn't find obvious placeholders. Yay! There were a few formatting/no space issues in a few fics I found, and plenty who were tagless (tags aren't mandatory, but highly recommended), but there's still time for that.

If you have a draft in the collection, please post it. Drafts can't be read by anyone but you and they do not count as fulfilling your assignment.

Treats over 1k can be placed in the Not Prime Time 2016 collection while treats under 1k and non-fic works can be placed in the Prime Time Madness 2016 collection.

If you are having some difficulty in coming up with tags for your story, here are some questions that might be helpful.

What kind of story is it? (Fluffy, Angst, Hurt/Comfort, Character Study, etc)
Is it an AU? (There are several different type of Alternate Universe canonical tags)
Did you write about a threesome? (Specific types of threesome are canonical tags as well as just the regular Threesome tag)
Did you write porn? (There are plenty of canonical tags for various sexual acts)
What kind of relationship do your characters have with each other? (Friendship, Rivals, Siblings, Developing Relationship, etc)
What do your characters do? (There are plenty of canonical tags for events/situations)

If none of these sound like they could fit your story, there is always the option of refreshing the Random Tags page to see what pops up.

I don't see how the timeframe comes into it. I was prepared to drop discussion of it all and leave off, but I don't see how rejecting something I'd put so much work into comes across as a good solution whether the recipient defaulted or not. In the second PM I spoke about my effort to ensure the fic would be edited that evening in the archive. If I was putting so much visible effort into ensuring I'd fulfilled my signup, how on Earth does it come across as the right idea to default me? As anything other than an act meant as some kind of reprisal? If you would like to reinstate my assignment, I will agree to deleting the comments about the assignment deletion and the two posts on lj and dw [EDIT: And the AO3 complaint; forgot].

That is the best course of action, that is the one I would prefer, and since I spent time on a fic for my recipient, I would like that fic to go out in the archive to them, please.

I wouldn't dream of ignoring someone who'd put their own effort into writing a fic for me.

More additions, as it seems the initial quick response won't get me the quick resolution I'd hoped: I said that I did not want a dialogue because I felt that it would not help, after reflection - ie, neither of us is going to change our stance, discussing it was pointless, as the reiteration of ideas above proves.

Your comment to the anon holds no trace of chiding to my eyes. You even seemed pleased that they chose to post anonymously.

I posted my schedule so you knew I was at home to see your responses, but unfortunately I was away from the computer getting ready for the day when you both left this comment and two edits, as well as the second comment.

Your fic is still anon and unrevealed, and it still has the recipient's name attached to it, so it would get to your recipient if you didn't want Not Prime Time's name attached to it. If you want your fic back in the collection, I can do so, as long as you are okay that your fic is also associated with Not Prime Time (and indirectly myself) since you feel so strongly against it.

You can keep the comments and posts up. I don't care.

I completed my assignment and I would like it to go live as a part of the archive. Thank you.

I will remove my posts, and would appreciate if you could delete this thread, if not the one above (I'm happy for that discussion and alterate viewpoint to remain), as I'd like the recipient and my writer not to be associated with fannish unrest. I think that's best.

Three edits now.

[roseveare]

well, I wrote quickly first, so I didn't get all my thughts in there. like I said: hoping for a quick resolution.

[bridgetmkennitt]

Your fic is back in the collection. I just had to approve it out of the rejected tab.

[roseveare]

Thank you. Matter resolved... hopefully?
