If this were a real post, there would be an actual subject here.

Actually, this is a backdated post I'm dumping into last week to collect any comments relevant to recent changes to my website, or any other questions or comments people might want to make that don't seem to fit elsewhere.

Hey there! I just reread the "Setting up House" series after being reminded of it by fig's rec. I *love* your take on the early episodes! I really hope you're going to continue it. I'm DYING to find out about that mission Carter doesn't want them to talk about during Emancipation. :-)

While I'm mostly a slasher, I do love good gen, too. Keep 'em coming!!!

Thank you! There will be more of this, actually, though it's been delayed for an unconscionably long time by a combination of a knotty plot problems and the vicissitudes of RL.

But unfortunately, one of things I don't have a good idea for is the mission Carter doesn't want to talk about! In the current draft, there's a link to Betacandy's story Acid Worms, where she's given us a terrific look at one possible course of events. Failing other inspiration, that's what I'll go with. (But even if I do come up with a different idea- you should read this...because once again, Teal'c pwns SG-1!)

Teal'c pwns SG-1

Like *that's* a surprise! :-)

Off to read it!

And it might be interesting to see a story that dealt with the event without ever actually telling us what it was. :-)

friendly fire

Great fic go Daniel!!! I especially loved the ask her but I wouldn't get too close loved the snark and him sticking up for Jack and especially asking them the under fire question because oh yes Daniel is becoming military whether he likes or not but he will always maintain his unique perspective as well. Off to read more of your fics. Found you via the awards but I would love to be on your update list thanks,
Atfan at GW.

Thanks! For the update list, is Atfan (at) gw (dot) something- com? your email? You can leave me an email address at redbyrd (at) mindspring (dot) com, or I do fic announcements on the LJ as well.

I just reread your "Setting up House" stories and realized for the first time that there was a 'comment' option. So, yeah, sorry about the late review; I enjoyed it immensely. That pretty much applies to most of your stories, as well--I love how you make things reflective and plot-filled at once. Are you planning on continuing that particular series?

Thanks so much for sharing your talent with us!

[redbyrd_sgfic]

The comment option was added fairly recently...*looks at post date*...er, well, recently compared to when I started posting fic *mutters darkly about the speed of time passing*.

And yes, I plan to finish this danged series, or die trying! I've got some 80,000 words more still swishing around on the hard drive. It's been backburned for a while now due to a severe attack of Real Life, and the next couple of segments are stuck in editing hell. However, you may have noticed that I've posted a few bits and pieces this year, and am slowly chiseling out some time in my schedule for writing.

Thanks very much for the FB!

Just reread 'Rearranging Fate', pointed back to it again by Fig's post listing favorite stories. It's one of my favorites, as well, so I was glad to be pointed back to it! Anyway, I was wondering if you've ever thought about revisiting this SG-1? I'd really like to know more of their story.

Hi Betty

[sg_betty]

Sent you a message about over-arching themes. :) Used LJ, because I lost your email address in my hard drive change-over last week....

[redbyrd_sgfic]

LJ has apparently eaten your message (or for some reason it's not showing up yet). I'm a paid user (permanent account), so you can always reach me at my LJ-username@livejournal.com, or my email is on my website (redbyrd at mindspring dot com).

Stargate stories

[toparty1]

I've just finished reading two of your Stargate stories - the trilogy about Nem and Daniel realising how valued he is by his team and the one about the astronauts trying to get a job at the SGC. I have to say that they were both wonderful stories and i thouroughly enjoyed every minute of reading both of them. My only comment would be about the astronaut story which ended a tad quickly. I understood that these men wanted above all else to 'explore new worlds and go where no man has gone before' - a concept that most sci-fi fans can sympathise with. When your POV astronaut actually did get to a new world I would have thought his reaction would have been far stronger. The wonder of it all just wasn't there and i thought it the one and only flaw in an otherwise excellent story.
Anyhow, I wanted to thank you for writing your wonderful stories and for making the characters so real.
Thankyou very much - and i'm heading back to your page to read more.
