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.

Huh, no I do not. She's pretty uncomfortable about her high profile in the fandom; has there been a big kerfuffle I don't know about?

I haven't heard rumor of any, but I did notice she posted something about Laura Hale's sensationalist practices WRT FanLib a while before her journal was deleted, and now has a pretty detailed entry on Fanlore that details multiple pseuds she's written under over the years. Maybe that spotlight made her self-conscious about continuing on lj?

If this means the possibility of me reading further Retrograde AU stories in the future has been eliminated, I may owe Hale pain.

ltjverse.com has the Retrograde stories, Matt. Here's the Index

If any new stories show up, hopefully they'll show up here.

When do yuletide signups end? Have I missed the boat entirely?

Ha, nebbermind. I just hunted down the comm, and yes, I missed the boat. So should I sign up to be a pinch-hitter? I suppose I should check to make sure that pinch-hitters can still give a list of fandoms they feel comfortable writing.

Jilli, the pinch hit list is here: [link]

You just join the list, and if you see a fandom and prompt go by that you want to write, you e-mail the list admin to claim it. The first person who e-mails gets the prompt.

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

Can I just say that while I'm no way stupid enough to sign up for YT, the day that the assignments go out is one of the best days of the year? I love watching my flist fill up with Dear Santa letters made of sheer happy "I love this and this and this and really anything at all" squee.
