It's really, really silly.
In other news, I've done a thing. The Leonard Cohen Title Challenge (Any Freaking Song but "Hallelujah"). [link]
This is the most activity I've managed in fandom since Yuletide. It's sad. It really is.
Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

That is precisely the discussion going on
Mustn't allow those tawdry fanficcers to get too close to the "real" writers.

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.
Good Omens fic I love:
die_traumerei's The Sprawl of Life, first story, "Demolishing Proofs We Never Believed In" is complete. Has fun with the notion of Making An Effort.
attheborder's it's a new craze: Aziraphale and Crowley host an advice podcast. If Sheen and Tennant could be coaxed into committing podfic, this would be high on my "Pleeeeeeeeeeeease" list.
irisbleufic's Crown of Thorns. It's enormous. It's comforting.
drawlight's Salinity (And Other Measurements of Brackish Water) The bookshop doesn't recover in this one. :-( But Aziraphale does.
gallantrejoinder's when all the stars in the sky align: they are good godfathers to all of the Them, not just Adam.
dollsome's i'd like for you and i to go romancing because OF COURSE they ran into Lord Byron.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
drawlight's Salinity (And Other Measurements of Brackish Water) The bookshop doesn't recover in this one. :-( But Aziraphale does.
I love just about everything drawlight writes for GO.

Chiaroscuro is making me sigh right now.
Oh! And lots by leaveanote, especially Equinox and the last bit of ex libris made me legit sob out loud.

This GO fic is long, and if you have been or are going through therapy for trauma, there are parts that are rough going. But it is one of the best things I've ever read. Demonology and the Tri-Phasic Model of Trauma: An Integrative Approach. [link]
