Hi, guys! I've had a craving for some Warehouse 13 fic lately, but I've been having trouble finding what I want. So I was hoping that maybe someone here could help me ( Read more... )

If you haven't tried AO3 yet that might be worth a shot. Here's a link to all fics for Warehouse 13, and there's a menu on the side to set filters for what kind of stories you want. Hope that helps any.

Though I love the show, I've only written one Halloween fic about it, but you're welcome to read if you're interested :) (It's gen, with main focus on Claudia and Artie)

Ready, Set, Carve!

Do you know how to filter *out* things on AO3? Surely it's possible, but I just can't figure it out. ^^;; I've looked there before, but it's basically just page after page after page of Myka/HG, which I just have no interest in. If I could manage to filter that pairing out, so I'd be left with everything that *didn't* contain it, that would be a big help!

And I adore Claudia and Artie, so I look forward to reading your Halloween fic! <3

Well the basic filtering is in the side menu (rating, warnings, if you want only M/M or only gen, etc.) I didn't actually know how to filter OUT Myka/HG, but the internet came to the rescue :D

Try out this link and see if it works.

I found the information on how to do this on this help page on AO3. And here is a link to their tutorials, that may be of some help if you haven't used AO3 much ^_^

I don't much use tumblr, but I came across a page that offers to do filtering links, should you feel the need for it :)

Hope this helps, happy reading!

I've tinkered with the basic filtering, but it's kind of a crap-shoot. I'm going through the things marked 'gen' now, and I *still* keep scrolling past tons of pairing fic.

Oooh, those links look promising! And not just for this instance; between the tutorials and that Tumblr, that will be a big help in a few other fandoms I read for, as well! (Star Trek AOS, I'm looking at you) I'll give them a whirl. Thank you! <3

Glad I could help! I've been looking into ST:AOS myself just recently ^_^ Love ST:TOS and TNG, but don't really read them that much (don't ship them that much either), but with the new AOS movies I'm taking another look at Star Trek fics :)

I'm the same way. I love all the Star Trek series, but AOS is the only one I read fic for. Dunno why. In all of them, I like the characters, and even a few pairings...but never enough to spur me into the fandom. Ah, well.

But the first AOS movie made me a Spock/Uhura shipper, so that's mostly what I read. Thing is, there's a *ton* of Kirk/Spock fic that gets tagged with Spock/Uhura, simply because they're canon. So, I search for Spock/Uhura and get a ton of 'Spock breaks up with Uhura to sleep with Kirk' fics. XD Not exactly what I'm hoping for. LOL!
