To counter yesterday's terrible bout of emo impatience (sorry about that!), I bring you my haul so far in the search for Rolling Stones slash. It might look small but I can work my way through two communities back catalogues and hopefully find some gems.

stonesslash - looks a bit dead but you never know
classrockslash - not just Stones but other classic rockers too. what ( Read more... )

slash, the rolling stones, recs, rps

Bloody hell, I've just read the horror/lulz fic. And they wrote that in 30 minutes, too. I feel like a complete idiot. It takes me hours. And then I read mine over for DAYS afterwards. And then get too shy and not post them.

30 minutes!!

I don't know anything about the Stones. Please, don't kill me.

Why would I kill you?! I only got into them and know about them because I'm weird! You have heard of the Beatles though, right?! ;D

and yeah, you take time over your fics and you think them through before you write them, as you write them and after you write them, and they are all the better because of that! I don't think it's necessarily a good thing to write something in 30 mins and then post it, no beta, no re-reading, nothing - and then boast about it! Maybe if that person had looked back on it they would have realised that the whole scenario of the fic was so utterly implausible! ... Not like the stuff you and I write. (fauns = trufax!) But at least we label our crack as stuff 'crack' - whereas lovely-dovey hardened rockers bathing and carrying each other around... hmmm, I don't know what that fic falls under but it is not realistic or crack, but something else quite wrong...! *g* Don't even compare your writing to it ( ... )

you should read that other fic i link to. it has more subtlty to it. :)

if you want an brief intro to the stones, some links for you:
early clips:
-maybe their most well-known successful song, Satisfaction
-another good one Sympathy for the Devil (quite long but worth it IMO!)
-another classic one You can't always get what you want
-one of my favourites: Paint it Black

sorry, i was gonna try link you to something more recent so you can see what they look like these days... but i have to go out. so... er... *grins* *flees*

gee, you're nice. I mean this, really. I was feeling quite stupid about writing teeny tiny fics for days, but you've made me feel much better. *kisses*

I will read more Stones slash tomorrow - I want to con the man into watching TG with me. I have an urge.

oh, you should see my output! oh wait, you probably do - one not-very-long fic or ficlet in a couple of months! it's quite pathetic really. but never mind. it's all gooooood. :)

you have to con him into it? isn't it a show that blokes like? though perhaps for different reasons to the reasons us fangirls like it?! i hope you were successful, anyway. which ep did you want to watch/end up watching? =)

Well - he likes TG, true. He's not a fanboy, by any means. He thinks they're all gay. Which is FINE by me, obv. He's suffered through a lot, including the Wine Adventure, and I rather enjoyed the constant gay comments during that.

I think he watches it for the cars?? Stupid man.

We watched S08E02 (drive time radio one) We've been watching them in order for about 3 months now. Maybe he's sick of it.

YES, I do know of your output. But when you do put out, it is exceptional. So you need to write a lot more. Do you not get a chance to write or do not have anything to write about? Or do you get stuck?

Sometimes I forget it's a car show and then there's a segment that is entirely about a car - no silly challenge, no interaction between the lads - and I'm all 'blah blah cars whatever, this is not the top gear i know and love!' LOL.

I still haven't seen the Gay Wine Adventures, alas. Only what's on youtube. Stupid old computer and no downloading. I should see if I can do something about that.

Oh, I always seem to have things to write about. Too many things in fact, so that I often start things and then am struck by other ideas that demand to be written - so hence, the large backlog of unfinished things. And I do also have the time - I work part-time purely because I am trying to write the rest of the time, to "be a writer" of some sort. Of course, the idea wasn't just to be a fanfic writer, but it's all practise, yo. So sometimes there is less fic because I am working on original stuff. But also sometimes there is less because I am so exceptionally good at procrastinating. Which is a bit of a problem, to be honest. Sometimes I do ( ... )
