A pleasant surprise

[wiseheart]

I've been asked for permission by the Tower of Ecthelion people to post my story "Cold Comfort" in their archive. It makes me really happy, as I usually don't get discovered by new peoples, buried under the heaps of dubious stuff on ff.net.

I feel less like a pariah now. :) It's a nice feeling.

Congratulations! Being asked for permission - as opposed to submitting your own fic - is really a compliment!

True enough. I was even pleased when the Anuonnen archive asked for Annúminas. Granted, the poor story is now sitting among an ungodly amount of pregnant Legolases (is that a word?) but at least people who go there don't pull up their noses, saying "Eeeeeeeek, a mpreg story!" Which was the very reason it had been rejected elsewhere, without being read, of that I'm certain.

The positive thing is that people who visit the site will now find at least one good example of how it can and should be done.
