question for the community

Is there any way to search your own LJ to see if you posted something already? I was reading my first, and for some reason, discarded ending of Jus, Rogue POV, and I keep thinking I posted it, but maybe I only sent it to khakigrrl. Not sure. I tried the search thing on the userinfo page, but that didn't pick up everything.

Any suggestions?

Don't know if this helps but if you go to your user info page, there's a magnifine glass in the box with the posting options. Clicking on that will take you to a search engine page where you can enter in key words and the like.

Hope that helps!

I swear I know how to read.

*laughs* No problem. i've actually started trying again wtih different keywords ot see if something pops up. Ther'esalways teh possibility I *didn't* post it, but I'm not sure. Hmm.

I can't help you with a tool to search your journal as it is hosted on the LJ servers, but I know that if you use LJ Archive to archive your journal on your hard drive, you can search all posts and comments through that program.

But if you don't already use it, that may be more than you want to do.
Good luck. :)

Hmm. I may try that. Thanks! I forgot about that thing!

Er. Are you asking for keyword suggestions?

Okay. Got confused there. Glad to help. Maybe. :)

Erm, I don't know about search options, but as a great admirer of that particular story, I think I remember you mentioning something about showing the ending to khakigrrl, as it wasn't posted anywhere, but not actually posting the ending itself.

I feel rather silly for actually remembering that, but I really loved that story and I guess the mention of an actual, finished ending existing stuck in my memory - even if I didn't get to see the ending itself.

Btw, since I'm on the subject... is there any chance you'll be posting it, if you haven't already?

Hmm. I was thinking of doing so if I hadn't already. I can't figure out why I didn't use *this* one for the end of the actual storyline, before the last interlude. I mean, I *really* can't. It's bothering me, so I've been kind of idly reading through all the other versions to see what I thought went wrong.

I will tomorrow, I think, after spellchecking. It's kind of comforting to realize my typing has actually not gotten worse over time--I'm just as bad now as I was then!

*ponders story*

I'm so looking forward to finally reading the end of this story! I mean, you were right before when you said it came to an end, but it's still a treat to see the actual finale, y'know?

I'm a bit confused though... this ending goes before the last interlude?

Ah well, I suppose it'll make sense once read. Thanks for sharing with us. :)

if you use any of the archiving on your hd software you have a most wonderful search function by words and expressions in post and/or comments. I started using LJarchive (http://fawx.com/ljArchive/) and it rocks so hard!!!!

You sent it to me, a long while ago, but that particular computer died. ):
