I realise I didn't make the connection between my two paragraphs explicit: your having a fansite solves a good 80% of what I wanted a comm for. (Sometimes it's a post of luzula or hyarrowen that I'm looking for, but truth be told, most of the time it's one of yours.) And as you point out, a fansite does some of what I wanted more efficiently.

Re double-posting to comm and journal: yeah, I hear you. I've been putting all my Hornblower rec posts here on my journal since they're mostly for you anyway, but I've been cross-posting to hmsloop_hotspur because I refuse to let that comm die for lack of content. Even if it means that all the posts for the last yonk and a half are mine...
