Well, I've always said that I wanted to be a BNF. Now apparently I am. At least according to this BNFDeathmatch thingy. Of course, there are about 100 names on this BNF list, and that's just those who have livejournals.

I'm very satisfied with this turn of events.

Oh, I know, I'm supposed to deny that I want to be a BNF, but that would be hypocritical of me and utter bullshit. Not to mention I'd be contradicting myself.

As I see it, BNF is just a marketing standing: pure name recognition. It means, very simply, that people read my stories when I post them. Which, since I'm an entertainer is rather the point of posting the stories in the first place.

So... good.

I'm trying to get in the mood Christmas. I really am. The really bad Christmas Carols I'm listening to (you know the kind, Kenny G and Tammy Faye Baker collaborate in round of the 'Little Drummer Boy'?) aren't helping.

Check out my new icon from [livejournal.com profile] snaples!

I think I'll finish that smut for [livejournal.com profile] tboy.

Merry Christmas to my favorite BNF!

Nice iconage...talk about a look of disdain. Wow.

Have a happy one!

You know... the marketing bit actually more sense to me and is probably the only part of the "Big Name" thing that I have wanted... so *shurgs* maybe it's a good thing, ya know? Eh... you think we'll get paired off?

Btw, this post drips of Slytheriness... I am duly impressed!

Yeah, I get Gryffindor on all those tests, but I must be a Percy-type Gryffindor. Of course, I once described my temper to be like Molly Weasley-sorted-into-Slytherin.

Eh... you think we'll get paired off?

We're both in the same group? From what I've read in [livejournal.com profile] switchknife's journal, the comments are really unpleasant. I have no intention of reading them. For anyone. It sounds like gossip to me.

Oh of course you are, silly wabbit!

After "Sex, Deatheaters and Rock n Roll" or some sort of story with a similar name (Ron/Draco wearing dresses bathtub and kisses!), how could you not be?

I knew it was true sometime last week, when I posted two stories to FA, and in one day they got as many hits as I used to get in a month. So it's worth it.

Not to sound like an utterly uneducated fandom sod, but what is BNF? Bottom-to-Nose Fucking? Better Nose Fucking? Bring a Noose, Father? Bottom's Nice, Fred? ::holds out hands in confusion::

And I love the icon. Percy's such a scream. And when can we expect a nice sketch of a turgid cock? Anytime soon? ::nose twitches::

Cheers,
Sing

Yeah, this BNF thing is sort of vague. I had to ask, too, not too long ago.

It's stands for 'Big Name Fan' and while different people have different definitions, as far as I can tell it really means that people have heard of you, i.e., "you know, someone rec'd a story by this Icarus cat once. I should probably read it some time."

*g*

Hah! The icon is very funny. His eyebrow rocks. :D BTW, I have a small x-mas present for you here (http://www.livejournal.com/~lizardspots). Hope you like. :)

Er. Would you believe that I already saw it?

Whew. Percy/Lucius.

I've sent a message to [livejournal.com profile] sparrohawk to check it out, since that story was a collaboration. She will be well pleased.

you've always sort of my been my BNF, just because you were the first person to be like "Hey! You should join LJ!". (yes, you are indeed responsible for the mischief I cause on my journal)

If people are passing your name around, then you must be entertaining in some way, right? I think you're good anyways.

Yes, but my attorney says I'm not liable for any damages.

It's all that hot sex. *Icarus types away happily.*
