Bah. Or hafital is grumpy today. Or randomness.

Grumpy for no reason, really. Could be the weather which has suddenly turned gloomy.

hey there!

Friend away, please. :)

As for recs, that would be lovely. I'll read anything that is Jack-centric, really. For pairings I prefer Sparrow/Norrington, but I find myself wanting good Jack/Elizabeth. J/W/E is fine, too. J/W alone is also okay, but interests me less. I'll also read Will/Elizabeth (preferably with Jack somewhere in the story *g*).

I've read Wren's stories and Firesignwriter's stuff, and a couple of odds and ends elsewhere.

Thanks again. I haven't read any of your stories yet, but I friended you for that very reason. *g*

Hmmm. Not sure about the rest, but mimesere is big into the Sparrow/Norrington pairing and from her userinfo I noticed sparrington.

I cannot help you much on the recs. I have an author or two whose style I like, but they seem to prefer modern-era stuff and I am a pirate-era girl. So, if someone pimps you something? Think of your friends, and if not them, think of me. *g*

Dude, totally. If I find good stuff, I'll let you know. I lean towards S/N, though, but I'll keep a good eye out for all slash.

And I have of course been remiss in saying how much I loved your PotC stories. Especially the Elizabeth one.

*hugsyou*

You know, I kinda figured you for a Sparrington girl. Hmm. Wonder why. *g* And seriously, if you find any good H/C, write me, call me, send me an IM. That's one kink I'm not really finding, and I'd look at almost any pairing for that.

And hey! You read my POTC stuff? Go me! I am feeling the love. ::hugs::

I don't really know why, so if you know go ahead and tell me. *g* It's the uptight british thing, really. And Will is sadly not much my type, but I do find him adorable.

Okay! Will do. Hmm, h/c... I haven't really found any either, but I haven't read gobs and gobs of fic.

I'm here, on AIM! For a little while, at least. Are you home? {{{{{squishes you}}}}} Things have been a little fragmentary around here. I miss you.

In my first infatuation with PotC, I put up a recs and resources page here: http://elke.slashcity.org/potc.html
Unfortunately I haven't updated it since last fall, but what I rec'ed there back then, I stand by now. :-)

Also, I think there's now a handy recs community... potc_recs

And I believe that crack_van has recs in PotC, as well.

Thanks, I'll take a look at the page *g*

I'm subbed to those two communties already. I just find LJ difficult, because when they come through my friends page, I usually can't read right then, and then they go by and I'm left to rely on my memory to go back and find them. And that rarely happens. And LJs are hard to search. blah.

When things come through my friends page which I want to read later, I stick them into my LJ memories categories. Sometimes I list them in the fandom-specific categories, sometimes I just put them in "catch up reading" and sometimes I put them in both (yes, one post can be memoried in more than one set of keywords). You can add your own quick references to the titles people give their posts when you memory them, so if you want to note the pairing or the rating, that's an easy way to do it.

Of course, that's kind of how I started having such a gargantuan memories section...

This is the rec page I started with. And definitely mimesere, as well as monkeycrackmary, guede_mazaka, and webcrowmancer (although she's left for other things now).

Hm. But yeah, htere's really isn't much centralized. I mostly just catch stuff from recs and friendsfriends. inkbug just started posting what is supposed to be the *fab* Sparrington epic, but I haven't started it yet because I can't do WIPs.

Hope that helps!

Thanks! And hi there. I'll check those out.

See, complain a little and people come running to your rescue. *g* I'm not good with WIPs either. Or at least I wait to see the likely hood of completion before starting.

Hi! I was reading someone else's friendslist and your post caught my eye. I love to pimp the wonder that is PotC. *grin* I keep thinking of more places to suggest, so if you want more, let me know. :)

I'd start reading it if the ending was even at the beta, but it's not and that makes me leery. Been burned too many times, as I"m sure you've experienced.
