I'm always on the lookout for rec communities which match my particular tastes. Because I read in so many fandoms, no one reccer fills my needs. Instead, there are many rec sites and journals I browse from time to time, depending on my mood.
To keep track of it all, I've decided to create a post of all the rec sites I look at. I have so many links it's going to take a while to get it all listed, so this page should be considered a work in progress.
One of the most useful innovations in fandom over the last couple of years has been the growth of newsletter communities on LiveJournals. The communities provide daily or weekly summaries of all the activities in the fandom covering links to news, fic, ep
The Creepiest Realization of 2006
At some point this year I realized what, exactly, was causing me to hate Kitty Pryde so much. When the character first appeared she was, to borrow a phrase from manga and anime fandoms, a moe-ish type. She was the ideal c
"The entire danger room was a nod to the fans, including the "Days of Future Past" look of it, and the Sentinel head." Xavier knew about the existence of mutant hunting robots (implicit in the fact that it's programmed into a sim) I'm baffled he talks abo

This is the page for art, artwork, remixes, songs, vids, translations, and other creative transformations of my story Written By The Victors, which is itself a creative transformation of Stargate: Atlantis. If you've made something new out of my story, I'
Some interesting ideas on what HTML to use in fannish contexts.
Fic writers write differently, and fic readers choose stories differently, and as a result, fandom has evolved into it's own unique textual form with its own culture and system of administration. Comparaing fic to books just shows a complete missing of th
Fandom is focus. Fandom is obsession. Fandom is insatiable consumption. Fandom is sitting for hours in front of a TV screen a movie screen a computer screen with a comic book a novel on your lap. Fandom is eyestrain and carpal tunnel syndrome and not enou
If you come into this discussion cold, without a long history of dealing with being a PoC (person of color) in the SF/F field, without practice in discussing race and privilege, you’re likely to find the sprawling imbroglio of RaceFail ‘09 more than a lit
A PRIMER FOR A SHOW PAIRING THAT'S REALLY STUPID, REALLY GAY, REALLY OVER :(...or, How to ease yourself into McShep before you know what's hit you.
Racism is an institutional system of prejudice enforced by political and social power, custom, media, and personal interaction. When I say that you have said or done something that was racist, I do NOT necessarily mean that:

I frequently post searches either to find specific fics I remember, or to ask for recs for particular themes or pairings. These communities are incredibly useful resources and I love them.
