Well, I got a review of Dark of the Moon from someone on FF.net that included, "I'm not sure if anyone has informed you of this, but your first story Harry and the Pirate was selected as one of the top ten fanfictions for POTC in Film Fantasy magazine, which is how I found this site."
But there was no email address. I think it's a hoax. I should look it up on Snopes, probably. ;)
Hmmm. Strange. If a magazine printed such a list it makes sense that Harry and the Pirate would be on it, but ... strange. It could be real - perhaps the reviewer left a word out of the magazine's name? But people do play weird pranks like this. Hmmm again.
I looked some more and it's just pulling up things like 'Marquis - the Fetish Fantasy Magazine'.

Thank you for saying so, but I'm not at all sure about that. I think I'd write it a lot differently if I was doing it now. Still, it was fun at the time. :)

Yep. That's one thing about the internet -- you can get away with all kinds of stuff.

The passage of time just makes us more critical of our own work, I think, not happier with it... well it does for me.
Definitely got to sleep now!
