She is. And I'm not gloating at all. Nor am I grabbing all of the Atlantis slash I can find and rolling around in it like a crazy woman. Not at all.

Wow, I hit a recs page with some Sheperd/McKay stories the other day and they were mostly good. This was a big switch from reading Lost fic recently, where there seem to be 2 good stories by Yahtzee and then a bazillion Sawyer/author's stand-in fics by people unaware of the difference between "our" and "are."

You should try the Atlantis flashfic archives Matt. There's a surprising ratio of good to bad stuff, and a lot of it is excellent.

Seconding that, Matt. There's a large overlap with Due South fandom, somehow. Perhaps it's the Canadian factor kicking in.

Some of the excellent stuff is by Dana.

So, this whole Australian thing? Hugely annoying. Disrupting my online fannish routine. Also, I think, really bad law.

What Australian thing, Emily?

Oh, sorry. Um... the text of the particular act seems to be here and some discussion here. That lj seems to be particularly focused on how that act (and others) affect chan, but there are a lot of people who write, say, 16- or 17-year-old characters who've gotten nervous. A lot of HP writers have taken their stuff off the Web completely (including a ridiculously multiparted work in progress that I was reading).
ETA: so yeah, largely HP writers for obvious reasons, but not exclusively.
EATA: Also, skyehawke.com apparently operates under Australian law, so there's some concern there. Comments at [link]
