tryfanstonetryfanstoneirradiant's J2, so that's next on the list. But...tryfanstonetryfanstonetryfanstone
hlh_shortcuts is open for sign-ups, people: my favourite fiction exchange for my best-loved fandom. It's only 500 words minimum! You can squeeze it in! Meeethos!amand_r that I will pinch hit anything (and will end up so doing) but don't want to, you know, actually exchange with its letters and posts and stuff, so I feel horribly guilty advertising the thing to you. Honestly, this year would have been the mother of all DNW letters, so really, best left to next year. Same goes for yuletide, although hoping to write treats does mean that I really, really need to get stuck into the fandomaid fic I still owe. Before sign-ups! There is a plan!tryfanstonetryfanstonetryfanstonetryfanstonetryfanstoneq_i and I went to Russia. We came back yesterday from Saint Petersberg - the sun was shining, but all the flights to Kiev were cancelled.tryfanstonetryfanstonemerriman who wrote the absolutely gorgeous Deaccession for me in hlh_shortcuts. It's on AO3 now, too - books in space! How can you resist? Although in all honesty my favourite part of this story is merriman's superb re-imagining of the Library of Alexandria - it's just gorgeous.pat_t (who wrote the really superb Escape from Purgatory for me a couple of years ago, Highlander/SPN) with An Incomplete Lexicon of Unwarrented Festivaties (Duncan/Methos), and managed a last-minute solitary pinch-hit for yuletide (Twa Turtledoves and a Cockerel in Clover) for aurilly, who asked for Dunnett, Francis Crawford/Christian Stewart, if Christian had lived. The prompt was so good, irresistible. And I did manage that Marillion treat as well - Punchline, for athersgeo. I did not, I swear, set out to write lyrics!yuletide. My father has had shingles, really badly. I was with parents in Penrith for two weeks at the end of Oct, and have been there every weekend since: it is awful, absolutely awful, to see someone you love in such pain and be unable to do anything to help. He says he actually can't remember anything from the end of October to mid December, and...I'm really glad he can't. He's in less pain now, out of bed, thinking about the model railway and the S&A novel - much better.smallfandombang, I have not given up hope on this story. 2014 will be the year I finally write Generation Kill!tryfanstonetryfanstonehlh_shortcuts is posting at the moment, and I woke up this morning to the most glorious story! I'm going to summarise it as BOOKS IN SPACE! But you also need to know that it has an entirely gorgeous and equally corrupt space-age Alexandrian Library, and all sorts of filing systems, and complicated shenanighans with Amanda being awesome, and moments of heart-wrenching pathos to balance the shining adventure of the thing - oh, and Methos! It has Methos, with library, too. And it's pretty much all I could desire for Christmas, and if you'd like it too, you'll find it here - Deaccession.tryfanstoneavienica produced two lovely illustrations for this story - posted here.tryfanstonefandomaid's buy-it-now Philippines fundraiser is currently running here, with the list of approved organisations for donations here. There are some amazing authors and artists and craftspeople offering aidgifts, and I've just signed up here. As usual, if you're at all interested, I'll be late (possibly very late, although next year's not too bad right now for fic committments) but I will deliver.tryfanstonetryfanstonetryfanstonemementis and I were working on standing on the edge of nothing, we had a discussion about Generation Kill. I'd never seen the series, but I thought then and I think now that the fiction produced for this fandom is extraordinary. And because I was working with 1920s San Francisco at the time, it seemed a very short leap to thinking writing 1940s LA for this fandom (Hooker/Biker AU, post second world war) would be equally easy. Nearly two years later, I'm finally ready to write the story we were talking about then, but my schedule is brutal. I can do a 10K rough draft of a historical AU when I haven't yet seen the canon, in the gap between hlh_shortcuts and yuletide deadlines and Jan 31st, no?smallfandombang. I signed up late, you've got ten days. Sign-ups close Oct 31st.
tryfanstonehlh_shortcuts is almost ready to go - there's a day left to sign up, people. This is my favourite fest of the year, and in all honesty all the usual suspects have signed up already, but if you've ever considered writing Highlander you couldn't start in a better place! Sign-ups are here - it's dead easy, a 500 word minimum.yuletide_admin DYW post!tryfanstoneyuletide, people. FYI. (Not that it really matters, just in case anyone wanders over from AO3.) Last year's yuletide was pretty much amazing - isiscolo's Minstrel's Song (Rosemary Sutcliff's Knight's Fee) was a story I absolutely loved to pieces. Still do, not to take away from all the smashing stories that preceeded it - and I wrote more than I'd ever done before, loving the freedom so to do. This year... eh, I've never had a problem writing, but I struggle to find enough fandoms to request. So this year, I'm not signing up, I'm just writing treats.marvel_bang and c_im_bigbang. These two stories need serious additional umph. But, they're in. :)tryfanstonetryfanstonetryfanstonerock_dinosaurthe_lj_revival community.
