I've got two words that are going to make all the pain go away. Miniature Golf.

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.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Anne, if you can't find anyone, I'd be willing. I've read it reasonably recently, though I can't swear I have the voices perfectly in my memory.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The unique, funnel shape delivers a crispy corn crunch

Perfect!

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

Debet, that would be fabulous! I just want to make sure the thing (about 3k words) holds together. Is your profile addy the best way to get it to you?

That'll work, Anne

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Just read a fabulously creepy Avengers fic (mild steve/tony) called What Lies Beneath by asktheravens. [link]

There's a sense of dread right from the beginning that never relents and gets steadily worse without going into full-on horror or losing its atmosphere.

Stark spangled banner is one of the great ship names out there, I think. But I just can't help putting Steve into the mix. He's not supposed to be there, is he?

What is considered the correct etiquette for abandoning a story? I really hate getting a new story that is all author's note explaining a personal tale about why they can't go on, but I just came across one that said, effectively, "this story is now judge mid-story, mid fluff, and I'm gonna put drabbles here instead."

I was surprised how irritated that was. I think I prefer the author just walking away, since my memory isn't good enough (or the fics brilliant enough) to just forget it ever happened, pretty much.

Just start a new story entirely! And behave yourself and don't have content that doesn't match the summary.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I believe Steve is the "spangled" in that name.

Thanks! That makes so much more sense.

It's so ridic how much I don't want to read Avengers fic and find out for myself. I like the movies (sans Thor's) a great deal, and most of the characters, but no likey readie. But I don't think I've read fic for any movie since Inception. I just don't feel there's enough there there to get started, I think.

brillig

I've put in brief notes explaining that my fic writing has been derailed by family issues, but I didn't go into detail.
