Don't friend my poor prudish alter-ego, just this lj, thank you very much! This is where I indulge in fanfic, smut, and sex. My brain is split right down the middle; it's a good thing I started writing lemons before I exploded from the straight-and-narrow-jacket I was jamming myself into on the LOTRplaza.
This is Helluin on Ficwad and AFF. I posted a useless but happy review and contacted you on the ficwad archive a few days ago when you started posting the Gamling story there. I have enjoyed your fic for a year or so on Of Elves and Men.
I friended you after TrekQueen pointed me towards your rant about AFF being frustrating as hell. I am a brand-new writer on AFF, but have also gotten quickly and violently discouraged there by the whole name-calling finger-pointing mess. You made good sense, and I thought, "hey, this is Zee, one of my favorite smut writers, and she talks good sense, and she writes good rants."
Finally, I was encouraged by your comments on the AFF yahoohgroups list (before it got nasty) about how even you were unsure and a little self-conscious when you first started writing.
I'm just a random fan of yours.
