Hi! My name's Steff.  I'm married, have two kids, four cats, and two beagles. I'm left of liberal. I've been fannish all my life, before I even knew other people were. I started in online fandom in 1997, using AOL 3.0.

I'm a ficcer, fanartist and roleplayer. I write Star Wars, in the prequels era.  I've also written for due South, Supernatural and Star Trek: Original Series (founder and half owner of Ad Astra), plus a bunch of other fandoms over the years.  I was a member of CFAN and a Subreality denizen back in the day, which is why I have the Comic Fanfiction Authors Archive now.  I once ran the MST3K Fanfiction Archive forever ago.

My AO3 is here: SLWalker

My Ad Astra is here: SLWalker
My CFAA account is here: SLWalker

And my tumblr here: [tumblr.com profile] sl-walkerThat's where I am most of the time.

Anyway! I am pretty friendly, so don't be shy. Come say hi, subscribe, just start chatting at me. It's all good.

So, in honor of the fact we have a shiny new archive and some new folks hanging around to share their talent and skill with us, I’ve decided to run a Review Hunt! The basic premise being: You write reviews/comments on other peoples’ stories/art/vids, get points and win a prize. The fan creator gets some very much wanted feedback. Legitimately everyone wins in this scenario.

Because the new archive really is brand new, new reviews/comments on both it and the original eFiction version of Ad Astra will count. If you need an account on the old Ad Astra, then DM me on Discord or Tumblr (under @sl-walker) because the only way to get one is from the admin panel thanks to spam, and if you get an SQL error from the site, then access it via VPN (which is one of the reasons we’re moving over to otw-archive as software) from a different address. Singapore works for me, for some reason.

Anyway, here are the relevant links:

Ad Astra (otw-archive) - Until hopefully Monday, remember to put beta. before adastrafanfic.com to use any e-mail links from the archive. And hopefully the proxy notice will be gone by then, too.
Ad Astra (eFiction) - This site will go static-only on September 1st, but if you need/want an account before then for either reviews or posting for posterity, DM me!

HEY TREKFICCERS. Or Trek fandom people in general.

We got Ad Astra, my beloved little Trekfic archive, up and running on the same software that OTW uses for AO3. And boy, let me tell you, that was fucking wild. It clearly was not ever meant to be easily deployable, whatever OTW says about someday, in some nebulous future, it being an easy install for other archives. Just given the instances of hard coding in it alone.

But, thanks to Walter of SquidgeWorld ([personal profile] squidgiepdx ) -- my god, man, you were fucking amazing -- and lassarina ( [personal profile] lassarina ) for the Ruby on Rails troubleshooting, and my own dog-with-a-bone refusal to quit, we got it going and pretty stable.

The site's still in beta (but then again, so is AO3 allegedly), but you can find it here:

Ad Astra Star Trek Fanfiction Archive

YES you can sign up.  But any e-mail you get will need amended in the addressbar to read beta.adastrafanfic.com/[insert rest of url, activation link, etc].  Yes you can post your Trekfic.  I just ask you to ABSOLUTELY CHECK OUR TAGGING FAQ because we are very, very not AO3 in terms of our tag discipline.

Whew.  Talk about a massive labor of love.  Come join us.  And-- beyond me being unemployed and everything else, I'm not doing terrible.  How are all of you?
