I'm going to propose an idea here, and whether it gets in motion is entirely up to you guys.
Have you written a fanfiction, but am too scared to jump into this community of talented writers and showing your stuff? Well, then I have a possible solution for you!
I thought I would share an idea with you guys that I had regarding making a dedicated Fanfiction Bot. New people who have a fanfiction written, but are too afraid to post it here, could send it in to me, and I would re-post it for them using the Fanfiction Bot. No one would know who wrote what, just me.
Then when you see that we aren't that scary, ;), I can change the thread owner to the fanfiction writer, so credits will be given to the right person :).
Now, of course we can't have people posting fics anonymously forever, but perhaps for a maximum of 5 fanfictions or something, just to test the waters here.
I'm not suggesting this to you guys so that you can "hide" behind a fake user forever, but for those of you who are new to our community, and feel that it is a bit scary to jump in here with your work, this might give you a good opportunity.
How does that sound? Is that something you would use?
Vote, honestly, on the poll above guys, and let me know in the comments below what you think of this idea! :)
For those of you interested in having your fanfiction posted by the anonymous user follow these steps:
If it's a longer fanfiction please send me the entire document as a file (for an example .doc) to julie @ gmail . com with subject "NS Anonymous Fanfiction".
If it's a shorter story you can simply send me a private message (PM), with the subject: "Anonymous Fanfiction".
In the PM/e-mail include the following:

Send me whatever you want posted. Then send me a new PM/e-mail when you wish to update the fanfiction.
I will post up the fanfictions when I have a chance.
