I have a greatestjournal account, a journalfen account, insanejournal, (with a soon to be mirror maygra-fic)

This journal account expires in 2010 and the's not much I can do about it. I'm tempted to buy a permanent account at insanejournal, but I really can't afford it at the moment, and if the journal-like connections fail there's really not much point.

I still have the mail lists running. a lot of people joined but then LJ calmed down, but not so much traffic (And as much as I like mail lists, they really don't lend themselves to both the personal and the mass interactions. You either have a list that's all public, in which case personal stuff is kind of off topic, or you have smaller lists, which can be personal, but not so much for discussion.)

Seriously? I'm tempted to throw in the towel. I come to LJ and fandom to get away from the crap I'm dealing in with real life, but lately it seems to be not so happy in fandom either. Mostly because people are stressed.

This isn't about my fic. That's archived. It is about conversations, about feedback given and received, about being able to keep tabs on my many friends relatively easily...which, you know, is probably 6a/LJ's idea -- social networking. They just don't realize that like every other human connection (sports, faith, politics, food,) fandom is a connection point of its own. Fan fiction is a gateway to hundred conversations that have nothing to do with fandom.

I'm setting up mirrors for [livejournal.com profile] supernaturalfic as well, since it's about the only "Community" thing I'm doing that feels like a contribution.

right now, I'm just going to chalk it up to PMS and move on.

Yeah, I'm screwed - I've got a permanent account and can't afford (nor do I really want) to give money to any other journals right now.

I'm backing up my posts to my GJ, but can't take any of the comments. And that makes me sad.

It's all just sad.
