This thread is for fanfic recs, links, and discussion, but not for actual posting of fanfic.
Has anyone been reading/writing Lost fic?

Chan is an anime term, like yaoi (which is male/male relationships). I think it's a Japanese word, but I'm not sure.

In case anyone's interested, there's a reasonably sensible article about fanfic in The Herald (Scottish newspaper). Mostly HP, fairly balanced perspective, and doesn't mention slash at all.
