Juliebird, if you like Sherlock, especially with case fics, you might want to scrounge through swissmiss's bookmarks. She categorizes them all into various collections and at least two or three of them are listed as being case fic driven. It's not all inclusive of every Sherlock fic out there, just her favorites, but it's still pretty extensive.
Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Ugh, I'm so out of it. I missed the SPN/J2 BB signup. I want to kick myself. I was really looking forward to it, but...
Gotta go set alarms for the D/C claims.

This is the kind of thing fanfic does so well: [link] Steven Rogers at 100: Celebrating Captain America on Film (a meta-story about the many movies made about Captain America in the Avengers universe).

Sometimes I look at tags, not summaries, and wonder what the following prompt would result in in other hands:
Author Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings, Castiel/Dean Winchester, eventual Castiel/Dean Winchester, Castiel/Meg Masters, Castiel (Supernatural), Gabriel (Supernatural), Emma (Supernatural), Dean Winchester, Meg Masters (Human), Zachariah (Supernatural), Amy Milton, Alternate Universe - Human, Parents Castiel & Dean Winchester, Unresolved Sexual Tension, Human Castiel, Human Meg, Cunnilingus, Christmas, Recreational Drug Use, Pining Castiel, Arguing --9450 words

It's better than "I don't know" and "I don't even" and "FEEEELLLSS!!"

sorrynotsorryis one of my NOT favourites.
But I still think there should be a challenge where you write a story based on an existing story's tags. Like remix, but more random.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I'm pretty sure there's a " sorry not sorry" canonical, as well as "the author regrets everything" and "the author regrets nothing" and all three of the ones Connie listed.
That sounds like an interesting challenge, ita, especially in SPN

I have never apologized for a story, not even tongue in cheek. Wait, no, maybe I did, Puppet!Angel on Sesame Street, I blamed someone else for the inspiration.
But if you're antsy about a story and don't think you should post it, don't post it!

Unless you're sucking it up and doing the brave thing. It's not like you're going to break the archive if your story sucks. Take the risk! I've put pictures out there everyone ignored, and I'm not gonna stop just because I think no one cares or it's not up to the standard of everyone else's pictures (or it's my first in the fandom, or whatever...).
