Me. I've never done anything like that, but I want to help the writers and have no cash. So.
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.
I've signed up this time too, under ailleann23.
And now I think I need to go bid for Fay.
Of course today I saw a couple of anti-slash gen writers (absolutely anti-slash, not just gen-preferring) boggling at the concept that there could be some latent misogyny in slash circles. Not just boggling, mocking the very idea.
... I am so glad you did not link. Links tempt me to click, even when I should know better.
Yes, that was definitely one for your list.
... is the community of relatively sane, socially-aware critical-thinking fans really that small? Because... dude. Some days I feel like there's about six voices crying in the wilderness, and that's it.

Yes?
I made the mistake of following links today (not even about anything serious or worth getting up in arms about, but about baby/kidfic, and I found the assumptions in the post and comments to be ignorant and more than slightly insulting, as both a parent and someone who has written it, but mostly as a parent, because dude, I'm pretty much the same person I was pre-kid), so I'm going to go with yes.
I'd forgotten about this -- even though I didn't write anything for Yuletide this year, I've gotten three comments in the last month on my Wonderfalls story from... two years ago??
It might have shown up on the Yuletide Story of the Day, Emily.
I don't think so. I usually watch that. But possible.
Here I was thinking it was just so good...
(Joking!)
I'll bet new Yuletide tends to send people back to reread old ones.
Yep. People hit the link to see everything in a fandom.
