Ghosts of the Past Featured (Again)! · 3:41am May 21st, 2014
Ghosts of the Past is in the featured box!
GotP was actually in the 'new stories' featured area (the top 7 of the 10 slots) when it was first released, but to be honest, what we have here means a lot more to me. It means that there's a recurring interest in the story, and people who are willing to put up with my sometimes long waits to get the next slice of the story.
So thank you, to all of you out there who've done your part (through favoriting or thumbs-up-ing? I'm not sure how it works exactly) to get Ghosts of the Past to where it is today.

Congrats! You've certainly earned it for all the hard work you've put in so far.
That's a pleasant surprise! It hasn't been there for a long while.
This is simply because it has a high rating, actually. There was a bug for about a year with the last 3 slots of the feature box - those 3 are reserved for updates to fics, not new ones. However, the bug prevented anything posted past... 2013? Or so from being featured. This was fixed about a month ago or so. So now, when you update this story, it'll likely pop up there, since a 292/9 ratio is pretty damn good.
Glad to see it back up there now that the bug 2131579 mentioned is fixed. I'm pretty sure that I found Honor Guard in the refeatured slots originally, so those spots are absolutely good for exposure.
It's funny how many authors I've seen make similar posts in the last few weeks.
Congratulation. Despite jealousy stabbing me in the back, it's a truly wonderful thing to hear. I'm still virgin in that matter, trying to reach this golden featured status.
