I'm taking this loop off

[minxy]

Seriously! I read fanfic, I went running, I worked out, I talked to friends, I went to a movie... all in the last 24 hours, and I have done that kind of thing in... a while. I might even take tomorrow off too. I hear people take Sundays off sometimes.

Anyway, brilliance goes on apace.

seperis called for DVD commentary, but issued the challenge that you comment on other people's stuff and all kinds of authors offered up their fanfic in general for the best kind of detailed feedback. They created a comm (dvd_commentary) and have a list of stories claimed, claimed pending author approval (if needed), and commentaries written. Isn't that cool?

Did you look at the list? Did you see that there are NO SG-1 STORIES THERE? This is a travesty, people. If I take tomorrow off I may write one, but here's the thing: I'm tired, so you should write one in case I don't. All my stuff is totally open (make free with the concrit, too, doesn't have to be flattery), even the ones I've commentaried on myself, if you really want. Stories here or in the sidebar. I think rydra_wong, cofax7, frostfire_17, wisdomeagle, astolat, and sdraevn, and I'm sure others (check here or ask) have also opened up their stories, so DUDES!

ETA: and destina, and merryish, and possibly M (samdonne). And synecdochic and green_grrl and janedavitt.

Fanfic besides:

sffan wrote Rodney/Vala from the Pegasus Project missing scene, PG-13 and so wonderful in a very cuddly way.

This was cute: Five Ways John Sheppard Accidentally Outed Himself by kueble.

janedavitt posted Holding Pattern from the Eclipsed 'verse. I must say that this had great themes and I love that the emotions involved really colored Paul's perceptions of what was happening. Also love that for a WIP, Jane really makes these stories stand alone, so I don't get that 'aaargh! WIP!' frustration. Little cliff's notes background if you've lost track of which way's up. I think these are all NC-17, Jack/Paul Davis.

Shunda (sugargroupie) wrote a Farscape ficlet post the mini, with marvelous sneakiness and day to day stuff. Grand. G rated. Sharing the Wealth.

And then there's synecdochic, who asked me to pick a story for her to write next and then went and wrote this instead, and oh goodness, it's amazing. Layers of psychology and complexity and respect between all of them and individual relationships. I love, in poly fics, when there are clearly different relationships between the people involved, and that it's okay when they aren't precisely equal in some ways, because it can be balance out in others. Amazing complexity here: Like Water, Lying. Cameron, Jack, Daniel; poly and BDSM and wow, headspace. NC-17.

still good to take a break and give yourself credit for what you've done so far. *hugs*

and perhaps your brother might cook for you while you're doing the next stage of the process? :)
