Yayness - inevitably tempered

[vickyducky]

So finally, third time lucky, my very first proper fic, Indian Summer, has been accepted and posted at Fiction Alley. I can't tell you how pleased I am. Now I just need someone to read it! Because I am so very much a 'glass is half empty' person there is inevitably a fly in the ointment! For reasons I don't understand, but which presumably are just the site's policy, it has been put under fics for Feb 14th, which must have been when I first submitted it, rather than today, when it was uploaded. So it isn't listed in the new fics list and presumably won't be in the owls for today and who is going to go back and see what was new three weeks ago? So how will anybody find it? I'm back to my old old old whine of nobody knows me! I don't know why it comes as a surprise that I'm as socially inept on-line as I am in real life. But despite appearances to the contrary I am thrilled that it was finally posted.
