I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

My friend grit kitty has posted a new Sentinel story, which continues her trend of busting cliches. Highly recommended. And send her feedback if you like it.

GK is one of my *favorite* Sen authors.

Does anyone here read Star Wars fic? I'm looking for slash Star Wars TPM, but not Qui-Gon/Obi-Wan. I know they're slashable, I just can't see them like that, which doesn't leave me with many options. Is there Qui-Gon/Mace or Obi-Wan/other male out there? Thoughts? Better still, links?

You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket

Am-Chau, The Sith Academy, my first step into fan fiction, a host of great writers, and some really funny shit. Maul/Obi-Wan, parody, excellent things.

Thanks, RL. And Star Wars was your first fandom?

No, that's what makes it funny. I've still never watched the Star Wars movies-- I came to the SA as though it were original collaborative fiction, dizzyingly organized and controlled and bitingly strangely reflexive and self-parodic. It was shiny.

Then again, it wasn't a very strange-feeling position for me, because I'm very used to reading things and all of their references to other texts I don't know about, because I am, or at least was, what has been fondly called a pop culture nun.

Ah. I'm like that with some things- I still haven't watched any X-files at all, and see yesterday's natter re. my knowledge of Jenifer Lopaz (none). And I read Star wars original Triology stuff with pleasure, despite not having see those movies, either. Phantom Meance is the only one I've seen.

Okay, Hec. Really, I think that last post confirms that you ARE a tease.

Damn! You edited too quickly for me to snark!
