I love my fandom and my comm
I love where_no_woman so much, you guys! So many fandoms have marginalized female characters, but the way ST fandom has rallied around them is so incredible. What blows me away about this exchange is how deeply people reached into past canon and tie-in novels to celebrate characters like Guinan, Jadzia Dax, and even Cait Barry. We have genfic, we have romance, we have het ships and femslash and threesomes, and even some straight-up porn. Whatever you are in the mood for reading tonight, I promise it is here in our collection.
Really, being able to come back from a miserable trip to the dentist and reading everyone's squeeful posts about the stories they received made my day. Running the fest really didn't require too much work, but even if it had, it would have been worth it to see all the stories that our authors produced. I myself was lucky enough to receive two stories, one from my original author and one from a soul who was kind enough to leave me a present even though she had not even signed up for the exchange.
The Persistence of Memory, starring Janice Rand with a side of Number One, creates a lush and vivid back story for an underused character. Her voice is beautiful and strong.
The Stress-Strain Curve is a very, very explicit McCoy/Uhura story that contains every kink that I was afraid/embarrassed to ask for on my sign-up but wrote down anyway on the off chance that someone would like to write them. The story is burning hot, but you should probably read the summary and make sure the kinks work for you before you read it.
Again, thank you to everyone who made this exchange a success!
