The fact that this got more attention than things wot I slaved over for hours on end and had beta'd by twenty-eight top scholars, besides being Most Amusing, just goes to ( Read more... )

Oh, so this is novel: I get to post a fic without having to do any of the hard work of writing it. I mean, no, I did write it! I didn't steal it or anything. It's just it was such a long time ago it kind of feels like I didn't. In fact, it's been such a long time since I posted anything, fic-wise, I almost can't remember how to do it ( Read more... )

Yes, you heard it here first. Exactly what happened with Dom and Elijah the night of the Hidalgo premiere! Everything explained! The horses! The bruises! The bats!*

*except not really cos of how I made it up.

Otherwise known as the stupidest thing I've written since lunchtime.

omg, my slashy valentine fic was by shaenie! I would never have guessed, but it's wonderful. Read Half-Four, like now, if you haven't already.

A handful of other faves include Creature Comforts by mcee, Sugar Coated by inbetweens, and Starts With a Soccer Game and Ten Simple Things You Ask to Make a Young Boy Sigh, both by sparcck. Although they're not the only good things ( Read more... )
