So much bickering right now in two of the 4 fandoms that I read fan fic for. The end of the season ep for Hawaii 5O left a bitter taste in many fans mouths and it kind of devolved into Team Danny vs. Team Steve, much like the Avengers fandom is either Team Cap or Team Ironman after the movie Civil War. Which would be fine if it was kept in ( Read more... )

Yes, I'm still alive, just very, very busy trying to do two jobs/careers. Don't even know if anyone is still out there to read this but I'm gonna vent ( Read more... )

Yes, I'm still alive, although I haven't posted to LJ in forever.  Just two comments:

1.  I hate fluffy, sappy Christmas fanfic.  There.  I said it.  Now please get back to writing angsty, plot driven, action adventure.  Thank you.

Mary Sue fics and fics featuring both of his sons, but I prefer my men out of their teen years. Haven't found any
on LJ or elsewhere, either. *sigh*

If you put anything remotely resembling "hilarity ensues" in your fic description, I WILL NOT READ IT. How do YOU know it's hilarious? You may think you're a riot but isn't that up to the reader to decide? A simple "humor" will suffice. Thank you.

Enough with the short ficlets! The little bits of shmoop and character pieces. It's time for some long, meaty, plot driven stories! Turn loose the angst! The case fic! The lengthy but well written mystery! Summer is here and most of my shows are on hiatus. Time for alternative entertainment. Time for Big Bang-like stories ( Read more... )
