This is a fabulous summary post about the new "fanfic archive", FanLib.

Please read it before you consider posting your stories there. Personally I'd stay far far away. They're trying to make money and their terms of service are scary and will probably hang you out to dry.

Better yet, check out their shitty advertising, as analyzed here. It's like Mac versus PC, only without the cute or adorable or the wanting to slash.

And yet, somebody already has. And it's not being posted on FanLib, either. Which is really the ultimate win. =)

What the FRAK were they thinking?!

Thank you *very* much for the link. I'd barely heard anything about the site, and that overview was extremely helpful.

I got an invite from them a few months ago and only briefly looked over the site, then pretty much forgot about it. I thought it was just any fic archive, and am kind of surprised it's causing a controversy. I guess it's a good thing I never got around to posting a fic there.

Here (http://lizbee.livejournal.com/640762.html) is a wonderful piece of slash involving those two guys ;)

They really haven't done any market research.

I first heard about it a month or two ago, and the brief details then were enough to make me wary. It's just gotten scarier.

You're the first person I've heard about getting an invitation. Very good thing you didn't.
