Potter Heads Anonymous :: Fan Fic Addicts Unite!

An Update

Donations still welcome!

To anyone who had donated to P.A., thank you so much for your support, as I am stretched pretty thin right now. Granted, this is not to say that P.A. will be closing, as I have no plans for that to happen, but I've recently been forced to change from the two year plan to the monthly plan, and although this is not a major price difference, it is an effect of the change in my financial status. So, once again, it is not and never will be a requirement for anyone to donate/pay for this site. However, once again, any and all donations will be greatly appreciated!

ATTENTION ALL AUTHORS!

Please e-mail Prongs via the e-mail address listed below regarding the PA Podcast! Again, please e-mail Prongs AS SOON AS POSSIBLE regarding the podcast.

COMING SOON TO THE P.A. PODCAST - Soul Searching and End Game by Chem Prof! With school and work, I hope to have all files posted within one to two weeks.

Podcast Update 2/3/10 - More Important Things and A Kiss Can Save The World (both by Robst) are available. More stories to be uploaded soon.

Podcast Update - Knowledge Is Power, by Robst, is now available, as is both stories in the "Sunset/Sunset" series by BobMin, on the Potter Heads Anonymous Podcast. I should be able to upload and post "A Kiss Can Save The World" and "More Important Things" within the next few days.

Yet another PodCast update!

I have finished posting the "Sunset/Sunrise" series from BobMin, which (I believe) finished all of BobMin's completed works to date (let me know if I'm wrong on that). This said, I am taking a few days off, after which I will begin posting works by ROBST from FF.N (yes, I got permission for these to be posted), after which I'm pretty much out of authors, so send ideas, suggestions, requests, and the like in, and I'll work on them.

Podcast Update - I am in the process, FINALLY (as some have said) of finishing the posting of the Sunset/Sunrise story pair by BobMin. After that, I hope to post one story per month, if not more, as I will be returning for an 18 hour semester (my second to last) on Wednesday the 13th, so posting time is going to be tight. Hopefully, I will be able to post all of BobMin's stuff and, if not all, a good bit, of Robst', and other authors who have allowed me to post their stuff. As always, if you know of an author who might be open to their work being here, or a request for an author here, send me a link to their profile so I may contact them.

NEW AUTHOR ADDED TO THE PODCAST! Those who read on FF.N will know about Robst, author of such work as Knowledge is Power and More Important Things. I received a message recently allowing their work to be posted as audio on the Podcast!

Just an update. I'm not working all week, except for family business on Christmas Eve and Day. As such, I will be working on getting caught up posting all of the stuff I've got in que for the podcast. If you have any authors who you think/know are agreeable to me posting their fics as audio, send me their links (or yours if that's the case). Any requests, send as well, and I will contact the authors.

New author added to the P.A. Podcast!

Cindra, who is writing the series with Harry as the "true Half-Blood-Prince" over at FF.N has agreed to allow their work to be posted on our podcast! Be sure to pop over and review her work, I assure you it's worth reading!

WE GOT BOBMIN! Yes, you read that right, I just got the word that Bob and Alyx (BobMin) agreed to their stories being posted on the PA Podcast!

WONDERFUL NEWS! Due to a situation where I lost several VERY long stories from my audio collection, I began re-converting them to audio to have on the old iPod. Well, in this process, I contacted "Why Do You Need To Know" about the Dangerverse (Living With Danger and so on) series, and she has agreed to let those stories be put on our podcast!

Thank you, and look for those updates soon. As for the older stories, I fear that storage and bandwidth will force me to remove stories periodically, but if you want one that was up and was removed, we'll work something out, OK? Other than that, if you know of an author who may be open to the podcast, give them the link (above on this page) and have them check it out, then let me know if they'll be OK having their stuff there. Keep in mind that I only post completed stories, NO SLASH, and though I don't have a "ratings rule" I do check each story. Just because the podcast is "rated" mature, does not mean no kids subscribe, so I like to play it safe.

Well, for those who read my stuff on other sites, you'll notice that I've officially pulled all of my work from every site save this one. The reason? Simply put, rudeness.

You see, and thankfully this has yet to happen here, I received a review for one of my earlier works basically calling me stupid, and ended with "lean how write, idit" (no, I'm not exaggerating the spelling errors). So, someone who cannot even write one proper sentence is telling me that my writing is not good enough to be put on a FREE FAN FICTION SITE!

Let me make my feelings on this extremely clear! This is FAN fiction. i am not JKR, Stephen King, Michael Crichton, Dan Brown, or anyone else who has spent the time and effort to publish and sell a book. I would like to be published one day, but not today. I have ideas that I feel would be entertaining with regards to Harry Potter and as such, I put them on my site for people to read.

I DO appreciate CONSTRUCTIVE criticism. Point out plot holes, repetition, spelling and such. That's how my writing will improve, but DO NOT simply rant and call an author stupid because YOU don't like THEIR story. This is FAN fiction. We aren't making a dime here, and before you say it, ALL donations are only to keep this site going. Dreamhost, my server, will NOT even let ME cash them out or move them, they are kept only for use on the site, and they are NOT required to be a member or just to read.

So, here is the basic point and primary rule for this site, BE POLITE! I cannot and would not if I could, force you to like and enjoy every story here. That's not what I'm talking about, but you WILL treat others with respect and dignity. If you find errors in the writing, or an apparent plot hole, point it out IN A CIVILIZED AND POLITE manner.

Have I made myself clear?
