No studying? Damn! Next thing they'll tell me is I'll have to eat jelly doughnuts or sleep with a supermodel to get things done around here. I ask you, how much can one man give?

Apparently if you're enough of a power nerd, there is nothing that cannot be flowcharted.

Also, all of Copperbadge's Good Omens fics are great. Some are slashy and explicit, and some are gen (like this one, which is about -- for real -- s'mores).

Strange Moons is a Good Omens series by Racketghost that covers about 100 years, starting with WWI, including Aziraphale serving as a medic in WWl.

The annual 3-Sentence Ficathon is ongoing right now: [link]

Lots and lots of prompts and lots of fills. Very fun, great way to stretch those writing muscles. I have even written a few!

Holy shit, I just finished reading "Slow Show," and now I don't know what to do with my heart. BUT ALSO, have you all seen the remix by attheborder and curtaincall?? [link]

That remix is brilliant! I love fandom.

And Slow Show owns my whole goddamn heart.

In the end it's only ever been one step, and then the next.

Thank you, Kate, my breakfast did not work (baking powder is an important ingredient, kids, don't leave it out) and now I am grinning all over my face.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

"Slow Show" lives in my head, rent free. I actually resented "The Witcher" when we started watching that last year, because it wasn't "Warlock". It's just. So good.

Do fan film links go here? Because this article does a not-terrible job of talking about fic, especially in the context of responses to R*wling.

Remember how cracktastic SGA fic got? Well, MCU fic may be moving that way. [link] Delightfully so. I can hope this is the start of a trend.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

DH independently decided to watch Stargate Atlantis. I have seen bits and pieces while he's watching, which made me realize that the show in my brain is much more informed by the fandom and the fic than what actually aired. That was a good fandom. I may have to revisit some.
