For the POTC J/W fans on my list, we're having an open ficathon on the JackXWill Yahoogroups list. vireydamagodaly is really in charge of it; you can read more by visiting dmcficathon and reading the first post or the user info page. Basically, we're encouraging cross-posting of finished stories to both the community and to the J/W list beginning September 16 (and trying to ( Read more... )

I swear to God, Dwight Schultz IS the original Johnny Depp. His Murdock on "The A-Team" was nothing short of acting *genius,* and I would not be at all shocked to know that he was some inspiration at some level on Johnny. (The fact that Murdock wasn't even written into the first 13 episodes, and Dwight had to create his own character and come up ( Read more... )

As I am an avid Turrow fiction whore and I know there are others who read this, I wanted to throw up a link to tessabeth's journal. Her latest entries are repostings of very old fic from early in the POTC fandom, all J/W. Besides being a good writer all around, she portrays the fellows in a way I really like (especially Will, who was, in those early days, ( Read more... )

More fandom ramblings. Move along if you have no interest *G*.

Pond drew something VERY NICE in response to a request of mine. Go see it at http://ponderosa121.livejournal.com/560216.html and drool over the boylove.

My sister, dahlianna, makes videos every so often for the heck of it (I'm trying to get her to consider a career in editing or visual arts of some sort, but she's more hobby-minded with this, LOL). There's a couple of POTC videos she made last year that I may have posted before, but it was on yousendit.com and those links expire and only allow limited ( Read more... )

This is one of the neatest things I've seen from obvious POTC fans (don't we all wish we could move like this). Enjoy!

Found an interesting article, while surfing around, on the mythology behind specific popular entertainment venues ("Lost" "X-Files" "Mission: Impossible") and thought it might be relevant to a "Pirates of the Caribbean" discussion.
