My least appreciated story...
Oct. 14th, 2007 01:20 amSo, I was going through my master list recently, trying to make sure that all the links still work and such. Some of the comms have been deleted, or have gone to all f-lock, stuff like that. So I was checking everything out.
While I was doing it, I started making note of how many comments each story has received to see if I need to revamp my 'greatest hits' links (I don't), I noticed that the only one of my stories that has gotten as few as 25 comments is "Thrown to the Wolves."
It's not that surprising. The two main pairings are Snape/Draco and Lupin/Draco, neither of which are large ships, and the fest I wrote it for, HP Springsmut, was not a widely read as the holiday fests seem to be.
Also, it's got Warnings for things like "Heavy dub-con" and "Anal bleeding." But come on guys, it's me here, you know I'm going to make it good...! (*laughs evilly*)
Anyway, I figured the poor story might get more love if I posted about it here. It's got bitter!snape, scarred!lupin, and victimized!draco.
