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

Yes, that's fine. Go forth and tag!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Thanks, love. I like it a lot.

Awesome SPN story here: [link]

Sam wakes up not knowing who he is. Things are not what they seem.

It's sort of if you took "Six of One" and tilted it sideways. But Kres tells me she finished the first draft before she read Nutty's story, so.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

I started a discussion over here: Anne W. "Buffista Fic 2: They Said It Couldn't Be Done." Apr 7, 2007 7:42:48 am PDT

I was thinking that a b.org-specific fic exchange/challenge/what-have-you might be fun, and I wanted to get other peoples' thoughts on the matter. I'd be interested to hear from people who might write fic, and people who'd be happy just to enjoy what's written.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Dear fanfic writers,

If you are posting a story based on an episode that hasn't aired in the US, Do Not Put A Honking Big Spoiler For That Ep in your summary! A spoiler warning for the story does no good if it follows the spoilery summary.

Sheesh.

(This is not aimed at any of the fine fic writers on this board, but is a vent against inconsiderate people)

"I make mistakes, but I am on the side of Good," the Golux said, "by accident and happenchance.” – The 13 Clocks, James Thurber

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

In addendum to Sheryl's oh-so-fun peeve, I feel the need to add my lesser and snottier peeve at people who write fanfic based on oral reports of spoilers, and publish same, before the episode has aired (anywhere). Which, actually, has been warned very well and politely and with no summary-woes that I have seen. Just -- oh honey, please do your trig homework instead, will you?

I am old and crabby. It is a full time job.

I'm sorely tempted to write another John Winchester story just to show people why he's not the Worst Dad on the Planet. Except I do have other stories to write, too, ones less inspired by grumpy responses to meta discussions.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Except I do have other stories to write, too, ones less inspired by grumpy responses to meta discussions.

But if someone were to offer you a cookie, or a nickel, or something, that would give you another inspiration, wouldn't it?

'Cuz I could do that.
