Yay for bad Harry Potter fanfic!

I have 72k of bad Harry Potter first-year new-char (I've *tried* not to make it self-insert, really I have!) non-slash (they're *first years*!) fic, and I don't really know what to do with it. So, it's polltime.

[Poll #61777]

You can't answer your own polls!

Well ... you can but you oughtent to!

A poll is to see what our opinion is, in order for that to be a factor in your decsion. You don't need to fill in a poll, you already know what your opinion is! (Or, if you don't, then you couldn't fill it in in the first place!)

Your opinion shouldn't be there as though it has equal weight with the rest of ours, your decsion is final on the matter[1], the poll is to allow the factor of our opinion to weight that, not your opinion to weight your descion, it already does that!

But if you reply to your own polls then you see the results without hunting through lots of links to find the 'view results' one.

I'm seeing a disturbing number of "yes in your main journal" and I have a suspicion that people don't realise just how big 72K is.

It's in excess of 10 000 words (probably quite a bit in excess). We're talking around 25 sides of A4 here. That's a *lot* of writing.

I figure that she could, every day, give me more words than the entire of the rest of LJ that I read, to read, for about a fortnight.

72k isnt that big.
