Heh, sorry to bother you all again. But, I would like to ask your another question. What kind of out of character reactions have your seen for supernatural house fics or crossover house fics? It does not have to be specifically described, just a rough outline will do.

Hi there, I have an idea for a crossover fic which deals with supernatural themes and dimensional  travel stuff, but I am not really sure how the people in House would react to such otherworldly things. I am looking more on in-character reactions. Also,  I am thinking about pairing Wilson up in this fic but I am not really sure how he would act in ( Read more... )

One of my betas recently suggested that a story of mine would work better from a different point of view, which sparked this train of thought. It's something I've become more aware of recently, although it's long been a pet subject of mine, as anyone whose work I've beta-ed will tell you. Several times, probably.

(Apologies if I'm gettting over my pay grade, but I thought since I inflicted this idea on pwcorgigirl, I should take some initiative. (Should we start a "Case Studies" tag?)

In the first Case Studies post, perspi expressed an interest in fight scenes. From House fic, joe_pike_junior suggested a passage from sy_dedalus's fic "Nothing Like the Blues to Get You Down" as an example of a ( Read more... )

Auditrixlectrix has suggested what we think is a splendid idea. In order to spotlight a particular aspect of the craft of writing, such as writing realistic dialogue, pacing, or realistically depicting emotional reactions, we’d like to present excerpts from fics that do a good job with the topic at hand ( Read more... )

Refugee from TWoP with a discussion question:

I see "fluff" and "slash" used often to describe fics, but can't suss out a consistent definition for either of them.   Anyone have any thoughts?

I've seen things labeled "no slash" in which the characters are textually in a homosexual relationship, although no sex occurs in the fic itself. This confuses
