There's more than one way to skin a cat. And I happen to know that's factually true.

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.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Now here I thought you were thinking of Muppet Babies.

No?

Someone in XF did a version of this concept involving the third grade, called "The Truth is in my Lunchbox."

Has anyone heard anything about the FBI raiding erotic story sites? [link] [Note: about halfway down the entry is a link to this story, on a Not Safe for Work site.] I was wondering if this might spread to my favorite fan fic sites, or if this might be a side-victim of other things the shut down site was doing.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I just read a fanfiction which used "Pre-Madonna" instead of "prima donna" . Which is pretty funny to me...

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

She told the ghosts as she peeled off her running gear and entered the shower, “I am about to scream, this is too much for anyone to bare.”

I know, it's such a gimme.

Helmut Volkner entered Elena’s impromptu dinner party carrying a fine bottle of wine and some flowers. The handsome man wore his money well and the ghastliness of a good-for-nothing individual even better.

I think it's tacky to wear ghastliness after Labor Day.

Elena did not care that her husband thought her take on homosexuality was archaic, she knew she was not a homophobe, the blonde just didn’t look gay. Michael again roared with anger asking her to stop being such a cliché. Michael threatened walking out when Elena remarked that a good f**k would snap Nikita out of her bafflement.

I'm not sure it's the character that's got an archaic take on homosexuality.

I'm not sure it's the character that's got an archaic take on homosexuality.

And you just know she's patting herself on the back for being so avant-garde.

Are you entirely sure that it's not some AI writing this? Taking random sentences from millions of other fics and substituting names?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Let's say a goil was newly in love with BSG. And let's say a goil was newly in love with starbuck, in an oh-she-needs-a-good-woman way. Where would said purely hypothetical girl find the purely hypothetical fic?

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Amych, I'd look first at Crack_Van. The BSG recs there have been surprisingly reliable. Of the ficcers recc'd there, my favorite Starbuck writer by far is Sangga. I think her stuff is mostly Starbuck/Apollo though. I haven't seen much femslash in the fandom.
