Two recs for you.

Sep 17, 2011 07:05

I have a pretty small friends list, and most of you are from the Jossverse days so I figure you already follow stoney321 and know about this site, but just in case you don't...

You should be reading Hey, Don't Judge Me. Hysterical, snarky, smart recaps of shows, movies, and books (Project Runway, Glee, Sherlock, and many more). This site makes me want to ( Read more... )

i heart fandom (sometimes with irony), recs: fic

I love Hey, Don't Judge Me. I started with the Hoarders recaps because I freaking love that show and was thrilled to find intelligent commentary, then moved on to Sally's Just Desserts recaps -- and i don't even watch that show!

I actually have to be very careful about what and when I read it, because it makes me want to watch new things and re-watch shows I've already seen. :)

AND WE LOVE YOU FOR LOVING US! <3 <3 <3 (Isn't Sally awesome? Such a boon to the site, I couldn't be more pleased.)

Aww. Thanks for the pimp. My favorite thing about the site is that you can totally read recaps without watching the shows. In some cases (*cough*TrueBlood), skipping the original might be for the best anyway. ;-)

You are the sweetest, thank you for the pimpage! <3

And again, SO HAPPY to have that lovely little moment this morning, YES: IT IS OFFICIAL HEAD CANON. So much love.

I'm sorry I didn't pimp sooner, but you have a million more followers than I do, so I realized the other day I hadn't pimped because I assumed they all already knew about it!

SUCH A GOOD FIC, right? Just perfect.

BTW, I decided this morning that Blaine needs a Huey Lewis moment. Just saying. I seem to need to fit him into every '80s trope.

Aww! You are so incredibly sweet! Really! The sweetest! Thank you so much for the rec. I'm really glad you liked it as much as you did.

flaming_muse September 17 2011, 18:04:28 UTC

Oh, the pleasure is all mine! Seriously. I've been smiling over it all morning. :)

Love the HDJM link - never heard of this before. Just read the GoT recaps and they were hilarious. Is there anyway to access old recaps. I would love to see what she did with BtVS and AtS!

The site hasn't been around that long, but maybe they'll go back and rewatch at some point.

Glad you enjoyed what you read! :)

I read both and thanks! Getting into the whole Kurt/Blaine fic. Helps that I love the show and can "hear" both voices in my head so well. I think that's the thing about fanfic that I loved so much, knowing the characters.

I have a bunch of recs in my fic rec tag (see this post) and a Glee fic group in my memories, if you're looking for recs.

Glad you're enjoying getting back into fic reading! I love how fic lets us play with the characters and explore them in new and fun ways. I mostly write canonically at this point (such a luxury after years slashing people outside of canon), but there are some fantastic fics that branch out beyond, too. :)

luvs_phoenix September 18 2011, 19:07:02 UTC

The more things change...

flaming_muse September 18 2011, 19:13:46 UTC

Of course I say I write mostly canonically and then remember that my last monster of a fic is set in a theoretical s3 and I'm currently writing two fics with no canonical context, so...

But I'm enjoying getting boykissing on my screen!
