'Hell Bound'
This thread is for fanfic recs, links, and discussion, but not for actual posting of fanfic.
I'll speak for shrift and say that there's no use trying to pimp Stargate to her.
Hey, isn't that what you said until, like, a few months ago? *g*
OK, OK, I'll behave. I'll probably bring my Firefly DVDs, just because. Debating bringing H:LotS--season 5 may be out by then.
Packing for that trip is gonna be tricky.

If anything could have hooked me, it would have been all the most excellent Stargate: SG-1 vids I have seen at Escapade and VividCon.
No joy.
But if you bring your laptop, I'll bring my vids on DVD -- which I think are Escapade 2003, VividCon 2003, and the WOAD Society 3-disc set.
Oh, the Woad society set! SO marvelous. I need to watch them again and send feedback, and give them back to Laura. But they're so great!
This year I'm totally getting the Vividcon dvds.
Had to come and share this here...
A writer acquaintance of mine posted on her LJ that while friendsfriendsing she encountered a new peril of the interbunny: RPS starring her boss. In a threesome.
There was much joshing about how she can never get drunk at the office Christmas party, lest she reveal to her boss the hot porn of him on the net.
I was following a weblog, slackivist (it's mostly political commentary) but there's also a dissection of the Left Behind book...almost a page by page dissection of how horrid it really is.
The guy writing the blog was introduced to fanfiction by someone and the term Mary Sue (which he immediately applied to the main characters). He also said that he found Left Behind fanfiction.
At the time I was kind of surprised but I really shouldn't have been.
He also said that he found Left Behind fanfiction.
It's probably WAY better written than the actual books. And maybe the characters get to swear and get laid.

It would have a hard slog being worse.
Some of the canon bits are interesting, but mostly I enjoyed being shocked at the 100% fanon entries.
Oy. Some of the 100% fanon entries are the sort of things that take me right out of the story, no matter how well-written the rest of it may be, blood tears (the hell?) and purring in vampires being the most egregious examples. I'm not fond of "childe" or "whelp" either.
Blood tears, I believe, are part of the traditional vampire legend.
