Some stuff!

[randomling]

First drafts for bittybang are due on Friday. Which is awesome; I've had my draft for a couple of weeks now, but still don't have a summary, and it's hard to invent one. At some point in the next couple of days I shall have to!

I've been busy with life-stuff, so writing on The Plan has been stalled for a while. Would like to get at least a few more words on it before I have to edit bittybang and start on SeSa.

I'm also obsessing about Supernatural a lot. I'm up to 3x14 and really enjoying the show so far. I have a little bunch to watch before I'm done! etsu_88 kindly uploaded up to 4x06 for me, so I shall soon be completely up to date.

I haven't done any fic-reading for the longest time - like, months - mostly because my illness has been making it hard to concentrate. And now I'm starting to feel better and I'm dying to have something good to get my teeth into. I'm not really very well-read in popslash, and would love to have something cool and new-to-me to read. Would love something long, like, 10k+ long. Anyone have anything specific to recommend?

(I am not choosy on pairings, kinks or plotlines, particularly - but I AM choosy about quality. Which is silly in fanfic, I know, but there you have it.)

And finally. Because tomorrow's the final day for sign-ups, I'll provide another pimp. If you haven't signed up for MtYG yet, WHY NOT?!

This concludes my Stuff for today.

Do you have a pairing or character preference? Is there anyone you HAVE read and so I should know not to rec them?

Also... I will email you about the other thing.

I am a big old Justin-slut, but am also a big sucker for good Chris and Lance fic (I think my OT3 is showing). Love Lambs, but also Timbertrick, Timbertone, Choey, Trickyfish and Bassez.

I have read Absinthe, and the Pornutopia, and Buying A Clue. And Two Straight Guys and the Beauty and the Beast story from Rhys, but none of the rest of her fic.

Thanks!

And... okay! :D

I will contemplate over lunch and make a list for you :)

[catviret.livejournal.com]

Eeee! Thank you very much!

Eeee! Thank you! :D

Have you read any of pierson's stories?

She writes amazing stuff that doesn't seem to get recced that much. Her site is here. Just scroll down to the popslash. I love it all, but especially Mysterious Ways and Into the Fire.

[catviret.livejournal.com]

I have not - I will look into it, thank you! :)

[phaballa.livejournal.com]

I second this nomination, especially "Love and Other Miscommunications" and "ManDate"

[catviret.livejournal.com]

Oooh. Recced twice. Awesome!

A couple of quick recs, mostly based on length. :)

Kaelie http://www.slumberwalk.com/ghetto/
Bethann http://boudicca.com/unaware/beth.html
Nopseud http://nsa.slashcity.org/nsa/index.html
Juli http://hazyphase.net/missedopportunities/

Have you read any of the juc swap stories? Lots of good stuff there, though not particularly long, except for Inky's and Juli's stories.

And a couple of excellent stories from the earlier rounds:

Oooh, thank you!

I haven't read a whole bunch of the JuC Swap stuff, because of aforementioned concentration issues that have been bothering me for a long time... perhaps it's time to go and give some of them a try!

:D

[puszysty.livejournal.com]

I haven't read any of them yet, but there are a bunch of vampire/zombie recs from Monday :)

[catviret.livejournal.com]

Ooh, good point. And I do love vampires.

Thank you! :D

Eeee-heheehehee...

Okay, Rhys has lots of great stuff, some of it long, so you can easily go back to her Experiment V site. (Book of Secrets is HUGE, and a fandom classic, and has Lambs, but only briefly.)

For a lovely long Lambs, and fairly fandom-famous, there's Buying A Clue, which is hysterical.

And thennnnnn...there's Georgina's fic I asked you about the once, Juppy the Vampire Slayer. Absolute crack. It ends slightly abruptly, it could have gone on (lots!) more, but it's a more worthy read than a standard teasingly-unfinished WIP.

There's also my stuff, some of which is long, if you're in the mood for action/adventure AUs of some sort. (One or two of my "normal" Pop fics are even slightly longish...)

Enjoy!

[catviret.livejournal.com]

Buying A Clue was one of the first stories I read in popslash! I think it's the reason I'm a completely incorrigible Lambs girl. That and.... Lambs.

And ooh, the vampire stuff sounds fun! An I shall definitely look at the action-adventure stuff! :D

[epicflailer.livejournal.com]

so used? is probably one of my favoritest crossover stories ever. blisteringly hot ust (made doubly so by the fact that this is aj/justin!) and yes.

the hackery au is also awesome like whoa. i don't even have the right words to tell you how much i love it. \o/ covert operations! hackers! it geniuses! need i go on?

[catviret.livejournal.com]

Oooh, you are the second person who's recced The Hackery to me - I shall definitely have to have a look!

Thank you! ♥

[turlough]

Well, I have all my popslash recs uploaded here, sorted either by writer or by pairing.

[catviret.livejournal.com]

Oooh. Thank you! I shall have a look through!
