Feeling a lot more cheerful tonight and a big thanks to everyone who gave me wonderful and scary recipes to dose myself with - I'll try them all over the next few days, one of them is bound to work!
Some months ago I more or less by accident - you know what it's like when you start clicking buttons - got myself a single solitary webpage. I sat and looked at it for a minute, couldn't think what to do with it and so forgot about it. Well recently they have started to pester me about it so tonight I put a few links on there - rather selfishly they are all to my own fics. Initially I wanted to link to lots of other people and made a list but then found that there was no room for my own (they only allow 4!) and had to change my plan. Rest assured that if I do acquire a serious one with all the bells and whistles it will bristle with links to good places with proper stories. But for the moment this will have to do...hey, who said you couldn't teach an old dog new tricks? Well, woof woof!
