Spamming my f'list

First a random rec that I've had sitting around for ages:

Thin-Spun Life by [livejournal.com profile] troyswann - Being Human, all the housemates; sort of a fix-it for the season two finale, except that it seems weird to call it a fix-it when it's so sharp and chest-hurty. But this is a brilliant story -- heartbreaking and wonderful, with gorgeous language and absolutely spot-on characterizations; all the relationships and the character voices are perfect. It's not really depressing, it's just ... hard-edged, and one of the most brilliant fics I've read in this fandom.

Okay, there's that. In other news, I'll be house-sitting in Anchorage this weekend, which means my Internet access will be random and, also, just on the off chance ... does anyone on my f'list live in that general area? (I've already PM'd the one Alaskan f'listie that I know about.) Hey, if anyone else lives in Southcentral AK, we could have coffee and meet up or something? I'll be there from Thursday through Monday, and visiting plans for family and friends are being finalized, but my schedule is pretty loose right now. :)

[livejournal.com profile] sga_genficathon is done posting. Author reveals will be in a week or so! If SGA gen is your cuppa, check out all the fic. :)

There won't be an amnesty round this time? Or is it too much trouble?

Oh yes, there will be! I'll open it up for that after the reveals. As well as being open for general posting and late fics, right now I'm thinking about having a prompt or two each week, because we got much less interest the second year and I think that might have had something to do with people being overwhelmed with prompts as opposed to just having a few the first year (though my lackluster modding probably played a role as well). So I wanted to try to spur interest as well as just passively opening it for posting, but I haven't figured out the details yet.

Cool, cool.

Maybe offer a set of ten prompts each month for people to pick and write?

Hmm, that's a good idea! I was a little concerned that having a prompt or two a week wouldn't give anyone time to write; having a batch a month is a good compromise, and I could keep it going all the way 'til the lead-in to the next ficathon.
