Thank you so much for still replying, and commenting also on Maggie’s comment below – participating so generously in this discussion!
Now I think I’ll go and read that Hermione/Hermione fic. You’ve certainly given a try to unconventional solutions in exceptional cases.
I’m trying not to take myself and the reception of my fanfic too seriously. This discussion could make me start suspecting that I’ve done something completely wrong all this time (while fortunately not writing even close to a hundred stories since 2003). Perhaps if I’d stuck to the conventional third-person POV, I could have become a BNF and my life would have been different… or not! In fact, I’ve started writing (somehow, I hope) proper sex scenes only this year (after my eight-year absence), so lack of those could have been another reason, besides the first-person titles, why I always had limited popularity. And maybe I still have a lot to learn about not mixing up body parts. :)
