I assume that it's been suggested before but . . . . may I suggest (cast a vote) that you spend a bit more effort to advertise HP&tMoR in more places? It's awesomely accessible (especially when considered in comparison to virtually anything else with close to the explanatory power) and an awful lot of fun to boot. (Actually, I should be suggesting that everyone here who likes it should make an effort to advertise it to all their friends. It certainly should have far, far more than 578 people who Like it on Facebook.).

Fanfiction is low status. Signaling considerations keep me from doing this with anyone associated with my offline identity.

Sad, but true.

I've found integrating the two identities to be a very pleasant experience. A great cognitive dissonance reducer.
