B/7

B/7 has an active list and there is still fan fiction being written. We are 471 members strong so far, though I am surprised there are that many. We also have an active archive Caro maintains, of whom I am eternally grateful for.

Besides this one, out list is our message baord as well as Perfit Misfits Dark Side board.

Well, I never thought it was a popularity contest. "At one time" means that you are assuming J/7 was and still is more popular. To me, that's not the point of our fan fiction.

I am sad that Voyager is gone. I think the writers missed the boat on a lot of things. It makes it harder to write, but it also makes challenges that are to be conquered. No matter what pairing, there are still some wonderfully well-written fiction, whatever the pairing that warrant a bit of exploration..
