OMG, this looks cool!
This looks like a lot of fun: SGA Reverse Mini Bang! Unfortunately the schedule sucks for me -- I'm going to be gone for a lot of June and early July. I'm trying to figure out if I'm confident enough to go ahead and sign up as an author anyway (... I can do 5000 words in a week, right?), or sign up as an artist (the schedule is much better for me), or just wave a little flag from the sidelines.
ETA: Since the question came up in the comments - this one is on Dreamwidth, and if you need an invite code I have some extra ones, or you can check here: http://dw-codesharing.dreamwidth.org/

Oh, in total randomness, I was thinking about your WWII AU (still one of my favorite long fics in the fandom) when I was talking to my dad yesterday about his uncles' experiences in WWII. Turns out I had a great-uncle who was a pilot in the Pacific theatre; he died flying cargo runs over the Burma Hump. I'd had no idea.

(And it does look like they could use gen people ... *tempts*)

I vowed that the genfication would be the last thing I signed up to for a while. But this is soooooo tempting!
It'd be great to see you sign up!

That's really interesting about your great uncle. Isn't it interesting when you find out what family members did in the war? My uncle was a marine on Wake island, but he won't talk about it.
Beth and I have tossed around the idea of doing a prequel, focusing on the Flying Tigers, but we decided not to, since we couldn't include most of the team. That period of time was fascinating. I think there are many tales that have not been explored. Everyone thinks European theater, less about the Pacific, and heck, there was the entire African campaign.

Very true! Actually, I learned a lot about the Pacific campaign from your fic (at least that part of it). It wasn't something I had thought about much before; I've read some books set in North Africa during the war, but mostly all you see is Europe.
A prequel would be interesting, but yeah, I'd miss the team ... though if you guys ever wanted to do little sequel snippets showing where everyone got off to and if they ever met up again, I'd be so all over that. (Er, I don't know if this is flattering or not -- it's a compliment, I swear! -- but, in my head, I tend to fantasize sequels and side stories for AUs that I really liked, in the same way that I fantasize about the show itself. You guys' story got, and still gets, a lot of airplay in my head-fantasy-theater. *g*)

There are tonnes of codes available, so generally most people on DW have got some going spare, if you ask.

We've thought about doing a sequel to "Long Ago" but didn't think we'd do it justice. The idea of a series of snippets sounds interesting as we did research that aspect of it. Maybe later in the summer :D
