Percyness?

Hullo there?
For all the HP fans on my friendslist, I have a question.
Is there any interest in a Percy Archive? I'd like to take the stories from the Percy Ficathon as a base and create an archive of much-neglected Percyfic. I've had the idea for well over a year now, and it just keeps nattering at me.
What do you think?
On another note, it's
wildernessguru's birthday. He's well on the way to being properly spoiled.

Obviously, I enjoy reading the stuff, so I'm curious.

Date: 2005-03-29 02:33 am (UTC)It's got a crappy design (layout artist I am not) and I think I might have to plunk down money for a domain name (head-boy.net). Plus, the thing might never, ever come into existence because I have a terrible history of abandoning projects before I finish them. But if there were someone else to kick my ass about things...I dunno. Maybe I would finish. I would like to be involved, somehow, even peripherally.
All I know is that it needs to happen. Luna has archives and she's only been around for one book. Percy ought to have at least one, especially considering the surprising number of fans he has.

Date: 2005-03-29 03:36 am (UTC)I'm good about seeing things through, generally. Not good at ass-kicking, haven't the patience for it: this is for fun, you either get the job done or you don't. *shrugs*
My attention for this archive would be sporadic so I was planning a kind of "catch and release" - self-uploading, in the same place as the Percy Fic-A-Thon, or at least using that as the front page. That way I can use the Fic-A-Thon stories since it's still the same site. I think I can use them. I'll probably have to ask. *scratches head*
Eventually I'd like to do some attention-getting for the site with another Percy Fic-A-Thon (this time with general challenges rather than a swap). That wouldn't be until the summer of course.
This is actually happening. Now, whether the site will just sit there dead in the water, or will people actually use it... that's really the question.

Date: 2005-03-29 04:10 pm (UTC)I think the idea of a Percy archive is a fabulous one! :) And if you're looking for more fics, I had a Percy Gets the Girl (or Guy) challenge that was taken up by a bunch of people. You can find the fics here (http://www.livejournal.com/users/kaz814/116936.html) if you want to email the authors for permission.
