Subject: Re: ATTENTION all Archivists! (Please, Please Read) - The Gossame Project
I do not have the stories on my site, but I am trying to collect summaries and classify all the fan fiction. Now I am working on the stories on the Gossame Archive, but when a new archive is completely up and running, I will add the newer stories. There are over thirty volunteers working on the project as we speak and I would appreciate it if you would make people aware of the site, especially authors who need to write summaries and classify their stories for us. The information is being entered into a spreadsheet and the web pages are generated automatically, so this is a one time effort. I plan to generate the alphabetical listings for at least one of the new archives, hopefully for all of them. This means that if an author wants to make a change in how their story is listed, they can send a request to me and it will show up on my site and on the archives. I am hoping that having this information available all in one place will help not only newbies and people looking for specific types of stories, but will encourage people to start more small, topic specific sites. Our catagories are necessarily broad because of the scope of the project, so there is plenty of room for other sites to cater to different interests. Since the information is in a spreadsheet, I could even help them generate the links to get their page started... As more and more stories are classified, the site can only get bigger. To help folks who are charged for their online time, I will soon be offering the web pages in a zip file for download. The whole site could be browsed off-line.
