Yes, it's the sheer volume that makes the site so off putting, I think. I don't have the time or the inclination to read so many poor stories so I just hope that anything decent will turn up somewhere else. Posting probably gets easier with practise but my first impressions weren't good. I consider myself lucky that the very first story I ever read was one of Meckinock's. Suitably impressed, I went on to read many more of the Aragorn stories at SoA.
