There's a community in LJ, started by one of the people on my flist (and some of her friends) called spnwriterlounge. I mention it because they had a rant post a couple of weeks ago, and one of the biggest rants was how hard it was to break into the SpN fandom as a writer and how exclusive a club it can be. I'm sorry you're experiencing that yourself. I know you're braver than I am; I don't think I could keep writing if I got few or no responses to something I worked hard on. Unlike you my ego couldn't take it. So my hat's off to you for your perseverance. I hope some audience members get a clue and discover what an awesome talent you are.

Btw, I didn't notice last night, but I love your icon. I always knew that's what Lex was thinking of while he was trying to survive another boardmeeting or visit from his father.
