RR -- Small Fandoms

Mar 28, 2008 10:02


That's it for Small Fandom Week.  We're always looking for new fandoms to break into, so if you have any small fandom suggestions, we'd love to hear them!

Things to keep in mind:
-Recced stories can be any length, any fandom, and any pairing, as long as they fit the theme
-You don't need to write a review (unless you want to).  All that you need to ( Read more... )

fandom: small fandom, recs by our readers

It is so hard to decide! Here are some favorites from miscellaneous fandoms.

Title: Betty and the Bat.
Author: wrigleyfield
Fandom: Ugly Betty/Batman Begins (plus some DC characters).
Pairing: Gen so far, with light hints of Bruce/Selina Kyle and Betty/Daniel.
Summary: Set after the first season of "Ugly Betty" and the movie "Batman Begins". Finding herself out of a job after Daniel's accident, Betty starts to work for Bruce Wayne.
Link: Betty and the Bat.
(Link goes to the last part posted, where there are links to all previous chapters.

Review: First, a warning. This story is a work in progress (with 14 chapters so far) but it is posted regularly and only has two parts to go till the current arc is finished ( ... )

And since LJ wouldn't let me post everything at once... slytherin_gypsy March 28 2008, 20:22:09 UTC
Title: Rehearsals.
Author: fools_game.
Fandom: High School Musical.
Pairing: Chad Danforth/Ryan Evans.
Summary: "When Ryan convinces Chad to dance in the Fall Musicale, things change between them."
Link: Rehearsals.

Review: In the author's own words, this involves "scheming, singing, dancing, cunning plans, wacky misunderstandings, small girls in leotards, boykissing, banter, musical reconciliation, and something resembling a plot." The characters are beautifully written and the development of the relationship between Chad and Ryan is sweet and utterly believable.

If you know absolutely nothing about these characters, read the Chad/Ryan Ship Manifesto by queenitsy (posted in ship_manifesto). It's absolutely brilliant and what got me involved in the fandom in the first place.

Title: True Sight.
Author: Ainzfern.
Fandom: Star Trek: Voyager.
Pairing: Chakotay/Tom Paris.
Summary: Through his personal logs, Tom Paris chronicles the changes in his life as he starts to receive mysterious notes in his quarters; leading to unforgettable encounters with a man whose ( ... )

Having now read Rehearsals, seconded! (If it gives you the broken page, take off the last / after html)

These sound awesome! (Especially the Brokeback Mountain AU (within an AU?)) Thanks:)

BTW, I'm recruiting reccers -- are you interested? Details are in the comments just before yours.

Thanks again!

Sure! I'd love to give it a try. Any particular fandom you're looking for or should I just select something at random?

It's entirely up to you! Though if you're going to review a story in a fandom we already rec, you might want to check the specific story with me first (as I write recs weeks or even months in advance and overlap would be bad).

On the other hand, should you decide to write a Jane Austen review, the field is wide open:)

Let me know if you have any questions or would like specific details.

I'll send an e-mail your way soon - just have to pick a good story (and a fandom, and a pairing...)!

And, you know, feel free to pick more than one:)

Once I get your e-mail, I can be more specific about what reviews I already have written. Hopefully that will help with your decision making.
