Thanks for all the fish.
Xander/Lindsey? Drool. I hate, hate, hate, hate, hate unfinished stuff. Especially if it's good.
Fay, I love you when you pimp me out.

Self-pimping...
I'm loving the LiveJournal Farscape Friday drabble challenge. Right now the challenge is just write a S1 drabble.
Here's mine, about D'Argo...

I'm beginning to understand this now. It's all about the journey, isn't it?
Just a heads up for those who are interested: the new issue of Bitch magazine has a longish article about slash. It's not bad - the writer has obviously read a fair amount of fanfiction, and she doesn't equate slash with porn. My biggest quibbles: the Spock/Kirk example that opens the article is terrible, the kind of thing that would make someone who has never read fanfiction before roll their eyes in disgust, and the only example of slash that she mentions from the Jossverse is Buffy/Willow. Huh? Clearly, BTVS is not her fandom.

For once I would love to see an article written that didn't mention Kirk/Spock.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Well, if you're explaining slash to those not in the know, you're sort of obligated to mention its origins.
I'd like to see an article actually written by someone who participates in fanfic, instead of someone who got it as an assignment.

I guess you're right, how about I rephrase it to---For once I'd like to see an article that managed to mention a current pairing.
And yeah, by someone who is involved with fanfic.

Oh, yeah. I mean, Kirk/Spock isn't exactly extinct, but it's not the big happening thing in the fanfic world. Have any of the recent articles mentioned Clark/Lex?
And I have to share this, which was in my cut and paste. It's from Thamiris' LJ, on the subject of writing sex:
My not-very-profound summary? Actual orgasms are easier to have than fictional ones are to write. I need some kind of meta-dildo.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Hee! That made my morning to read. Meta-dildo is now part of my vocab.
