FAQ

Who's archive is this?

This is the fan fiction archive of myself, Setzuka, and my friend, Sage of Sin. I created this site as a replacement for the older, less efficient archive "Dare to Speak."

What kinds of stories will I find here?

This is a multi-fandom archive of stories, so you'll find the fandoms that we are currently interested in. Sage of Sin writes mainly in the Harry Potter and Full Metal Alchemist fandoms, while I write in whatever fandoms have tickled my fancy at that moment in time. This archive is comprised mainly of slash and yaoi stories (males with males in live-action and anime, respectively), with the occasional het or gen fic. If you are somehow offended/disturbed/scandalized by that, you should look elsewhere for stories.

Can I submit stories to this site?

"Tarnished Words and Tainted Minds" was intended to be a private archive for fan fiction written by myself and SOS. There are numerous places on the web for passersby to submit their fan fiction. Fanfiction.net and Adultfanfiction.net are only two of the many fiction sites out there. I think that it would be redundant for me to make a large open fan fiction archive when so many exist. However, that's not to say that I am opposed to allowing some people access to submitting their stories here if they write in the same fandoms that we do. If you want to be added as an author to this site, submit a sample of your writing to tsumi[at]beautifulsinner[dot]net (I promise that I won't steal it!) and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

I need to contact the site administrators. How do I do that?

You can reach me via the contact form for anything relating to this site.

You are a horrible person! Why do you have a site full of adult stories?! And homosexual ones at that! What about the children?!!!

As I said above and on the main page, this archive is intended for viewing by adults over 18 years of age who aren't offended by homosexual relationships. Each story here has its own individual warning of its content. People coming through should heed the warnings that are given in multiple places on the site. Please don't bother flaming me because you click links before you read warnings. And if someone is under age and looking at this site despite the warnings, don't blame me or SOS for any trauma that occurs from it.

Do you gals have any other sites on the web?

Yes, we do. My main domain that hosts my sites is Beautifulsinner.net, where you can find an assortment of different types of sites for fanlistings, shrines, media, and the like. I recently added Sage of Sin as a hostee. Her space is called Slytherin Heart. Just a taste is there at the moment, but more will come soon. The two of us also have various journals on the web.
