Ooh! Brin!

Is your fiction anywhere we can read it?

Or is it only secret, and private?

​

brin-bellway:

The current one is semi-private, but most of my fiction is publicly available at the Glowfic Constellation (a roleplay/collaborative-writing site: some rat-Tumblrites may recognise it as “that format planecrash / Project Lawful was written in”).

Glowfic is an infamously high-context medium and needs a certain amount of tolerance for reading things without having read their prerequisites, but you can get a head start on understanding the background context relevant to my stuff by reading How to Read Glowfic and the glowfic wiki page on medianworlds (people who understood the phrase “the format planecrash was written in” may recognise this as the relationship Keltham’s homeworld has to Eliezer Yudkowsky).

ourladyoflampreys / @sacrificedtoatree replied: “Ah, I have heard of glowfic, actually. I read through some of Alicorn’s posts and fics on her site at some point and found a brief explanation of it, although I confess I didn’t understand it very much. But you know, I have a long bus ride tomorrow and I hear them Greyhounds have decent wi-fi these days, so I may take a dive into this!”
