Hi, a mail to let you know about my reccing (mis)fortunes. :)
I signed up for another month of John & Rodney Friendship on stargateficrec, but something went wrong with my posting access (as in 'no posting access' and zero response from the mods) so I'm afraid there aren't going to be any Rodney / John Friendship recs in June.
I found it quite a challenge to be honest. Most of the stories I had in mind, had been recc'd already or upon rereading teetered on the brink of pre-slash (that happened quite often actually :). Whether it is because the author has also written slash and it colors my perception, or because I didn't read the signs the first time around, but a lot of stories were decidedly slashier than I remembered!).
At any rate, I found it quite a challenge to find well-written gen stories with the focus on friendship (focus on friendship being the operative word here). There are plenty of course, but I don't want to rec the same authors over and over again. So even if the mods get back to me, I will probably bow out after June and let someone else take a turn.
At the time you said you were looking for a replacement for April and May. Would you like the category back? Or would you perhaps consider posting another appeal to your flist? You will reach a far larger group of people than I will and I would hate to see the category go dormant.
Thanks for letting me have a go at this. It was a fun experience!
