Yes, this is a blatant attempt to seek connection today:

Quote a bit of my writing at me? Find that one story of mine that you really like, and find a sentence or a paragraph that presses your prose-buttons in the right way, and comment here with it? Don't care how long or short.

I will extend this to pimped works and meta: tell me about a recommendation that you loved, the fic or the description thereof, what made you want to read and whether you thought I was accurate. I want to know if you've been thrilled by a particular rec of your own work, or if the description pointed something out that surprised you, etc. Tell me if a Sam meta made your day or what about a Teal'c meta made you try writing his POV?

Recs are under this fanfic recs tag, stories are under this tag and in this post, meta is here.

I have SO MANY of your recs pages bookmarked for the day I finally finish watching SG-1, because from what I can tell about you, the recs are going to be to stories I'll love.

Eeee! Are you just watching for the first time? Where are you in the series? Rec pages can indeed be spoilery, but I've been known to put together some recs by season for new fen.

And, yay, that's a high compliment for a pimp, you know. Thanks.

I am watching for the first time! Since I absolutely wasn't going to care about the show, I let myself start from the end, and watched the last half of S10 as it aired in the UK. Then one night a friend and I watched the final three eps, and the combination of "Family Ties" and "Unending" made me fall hook, line, and sinker. So I ahemed it and started with S1. I stalled on the penultimate S4 ep and haven't dived back in, even after buying the complete series box set, because 10 seasons eep. I really need to, though.

You're welcome! It's only the truth. *g*
