drive-by channel surfing AND blogging

1. It's ficathon night on ye olde flist. sjficathon is a Sam/Jack ficathon, and xgenchallenge will be a multi-fandom Father Figure Kink challenge as soon as meyerlemon figures out how to p starting right now! *runs off to sign up, debating in brain between Hammond/Sam and Giles/Willow and creatively interpreting the challenge and writing crack crossovers with butch!Sam and Willow and/or Fred because is a SICK SICK PUPPY* Perhaps the flist is telling me I should actually do that OT3+ thon, huh?

2. Caught, amidst much drivel and dren, the last five minutes of "Revelations" (of the Buffy variety) ( random pointless observations )

LA != Sunnydale.

3. On The Actor's Studio on Bravo!, saw David Dokuvnee Duchovney Mulder being interviewed. Actually watched this for an hour. DD is very cool, really, although evidently he either a) doesn't know the word fandom or( b... )

4. Andrea Dworkin has, indeed, died. While I don't have much personal attachment to her one way or another (now, when Gloria dies, I shall cry. She was my personal introduction to feminism.) However, I did want to make say that something either she or Catherine MacKinnon ( cut for explicitness )

5. OMG. In real life stuff, ( you don't care )

my slide list.

6. Have given up on answering all comments about Tara's sexual orientation. People had very interesting thoughts, yay for thinky thoughts. I hadn't considered how her Relationship With Her Father might have influenced her sexuality, mostly because, um, Freud slipped my mind? I don't really know. I guess I do see fathers (and mothers, but there are almost no TV mothers) as being important, but I'm kind of used to thinking that they were important a long time ago, unless you're Sam and your father is your chief liaison with the most important alien race you know... bad Ari! Parents are important!

7. Err, think that's all that I really had to say. Must go find those things right now and then see if I can grind out any ficathon fic... *hides behind stack of challenges*

GateverseOT3+-a-thon

Sign-ups are now closed. If you're interested in reading lots of quality OT3+ fic, the masterlist can be found here.

The premise of this ficathon is that one is not enough. In fact, two are not enough, and three is just starting to hit the proper number of people to have in a relationship. This is a ficathon for trios and triples and multiples on Stargate: SG-1 and on Stargate: Atlantis.

Here's how it will work. You'll sign up by commenting to this post. You'll request a story that you would like someone else to write for you. Since I'm leaving this open to all sorts of groupings, I'm asking that you make two separate requests. The person writing for you will only have to choose one to write. That way I'll have a better chance of matching your request with someone willing to write it.

You'll also tell me what groupings (throughout, the word "grouping" will mean what "pairing" usually does in these things)) you particularly want to write AND what groupings you absolutely can't or won't write, along with anything else you can't write. Then, after sign-ups close, I'll email you with the name and requests of the person you'll writing for. You'll choose one of hir requests and write a fic of at least 1000 words fulfilling it by June 15.

Dates:
Signups start now and end on April 25.
Assignments will be mailed by April 27.
Fics will be due on June 15. On that day, I'll post a masterlist in my LiveJournal and link to it in all the places where I initially pimped this. You'll post the fic you wrote in your LJ, tell me where it is, and we'll all have lots of shiny new fic to read.

If you have to drop out, for whatever reason, let me know as soon as possible!
