Anne, it's not just you. I am so guilty of that. I felt better when I searched del.icio.us for the story title and saw more people had it saved than had commented. Try that!
Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

Oooh, I should do that. But my recipient really liked the story, thank goodness!

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
But my recipient really liked the story, thank goodness!
Yes. This. That's always nice. My pinch hit recipient was effusively happy and the main recipient posted in her LJ that she was thrilled to bits that I picked the prompt I did, but that she'd been up for 48 hours straight and would read and review once consciousness had returned.
It's going to take me forever to work through the stories even in the few fandoms I know.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I LOVE when that happens. It's balm to my writerly ego when my friends comment on my stories without knowing it's me. Yes! I do not suck!

Oh, those parantheticals are brilliance. and this is for the win:
"Sheppard, are you talking to your hair again?" McKay asked.
"What? No," Sheppard lied.
I am slowly coming out from my yuletide coma. and this is just the first round of story-reading, too. The next is when I go back and re-read some stuff for canon and then go read the fic I skipped the first time. Ah, perfected systems.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Oh. Dear. God.
Did everyone already read the Sesame Street Porn?
I haven't laughed so hard in MONTHS. I mean, it was horrified, brain-go-boom laughter, but...OMG. See, I never did read that Carebear S&m story, but this....good heavens. Bert. Ernie.
...It's so horrifyingly in character, that's the thing.
