Slumming at ff.n

You writers may not know this, but at fanfiction.net it's possible to view the number of people who visit your home page, not just your stories.


This weekend, I received twelve visits from Romania. Romania! I ask you! I wish ff.n could tell me why my profile was of keen interest to our sister-fans from Romania last Saturday.


It might be because I made up a lot of shit about myself. On all my fanfiction site profiles, I have composed a different, exotic and totally fictionalized profile for myself. I figure I live here; I may as well decorate.


No, no. Must stay realistic! It's gotta be because I linked a ton of fantastic writers on my Favorite Stories and Favorite Authors pages.


I love ff.n in spite of its numerous flaws. Though there are other fanfiction sites that are better moderated and have, y' know, SPaG standards, I am completely loyal to ff.n for one simple reason: it has a mobile edition. This means I can read fic on my Blackberry's pathetically teensy screen whenever I ride the commuter train or stand in line somewhere, which saves my sanity. One day I'll break down and get a smarter smart phone, but until then, this is basically working.



Are there other sites out there with mobile editions?
