Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Fan Fiction II: Great story! Where's the sequel?

This thread is for fanfic recs, links, and discussion, but not for actual posting of fanfic.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

If you ever go back and re-read, you might see my handle pop up in the notes occasionally. ;)

I wrote a bit for Magicians -- not a lot but I'm very proud of what I did write. Unfortunately the s4 finale destroyed the creative impulse I had for the fandom.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I wrote a bit for Magicians

I am totally going to read those tomorrow, when I'm awake (I'm in bed and more than halfway to sleep by now).

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

In my fandom caters directly to my needs news: a few years ago, a writing duo I admire wrote a Penny Dreadful AU for Hannibal, complete with vampires. When I read the tags to Mr. Loomy, he wanted to know if it had been written as a present for me.

The same duo are now posting daily chapters of their latest (complete, thank goodness!): a Mary Poppins AU for Hannibal.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

I just got a "more please" comment on a story from 2002. I admire their optimism.

Thrive to spite them

Frustration is reading a really long fanfic series that I've totally gotten into and then realize at the last part it's a cliff hanger and hasn't been updated in a year. I subscribed but I'm doubting there will be anything else/

It's the eternal burden of the archive-trawler, askye.

Always Anti-fascist!

I had a story that I finished after six or eight months...it could happen.

Kind of pleased but surprised that my KO and Rachel fanfic is getting a lot of lve lately.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

If anyone wants to kill an entertaining couple of hours, check out Lindsey Ellis' two most recent Youtube videos, about a complete nutjob het A/B/O author (yes they exist) who is litigation-mad but also does not understand copyright law at all. I'm now at the point where the author is claiming that the OTW and EFF (and Courtney Milan?) are behind Ellis' videos, and it's all one big conspiracy to monetize the fact that this woman does not know how plagiarism or copyright infringement works.

Fascinating stuff, and Ellis is monetizing the shit out of it.

This is enough to make me long for the days of Fandom_Wank.
