e_m_pink: Genrelessness in the HP Fandom - My Experienceby not writing in a genre, I am missing shared context, community participation perks & classification perks. "But you can't be missing more than that!" you might want to say. "Everyone shares about the same beliefs in canon. Right?"
Well, no, they don't.
redcoast: Return of the Jedi: What Could Have Been - The last movie ended with a huge revelation - Vader is Luke's father! Oh no! And there's little that Jedi could do to top it. But the biggest problem is that Lucas never wanted to deal with the consequences of Luke and Leia being siblings. -
fanthropology: Feedback: Getting it and giving it - What method is best for getting more readers and reviewers? -
moonshayde: SG-1 Meta: On Gen, Ship, and Slash (Jack) - it takes a lot of work and some expert handling for me to buy Jack breaking through that wall he has around himself. Some fic writers can do it and I applaud them. I've even tried myself - sometimes with success and sometimes not. -
trascendenza: Heroes: general thoughts, characters - Half the fun of superpowers for me, as a viewer, is seeing the slow discovering process. And a lot of the characters seemed... much more okay with their powers than I would have expected -
teenybuffalo: The topping discussion, part The Next - it's funny, because they always agree on who's topping...Maybe the first slasher to write the pairing decides who's topping, and everyone else follows her lead. Then again, maybe people are picking up on canonical overtones that I'm completely missing. -
chicafrom3: Though your lips are tempting, they're the wrong lips - Hey, fellow Psych fen on my flist, is this true? Is this excuse being used a lot by Shawn/Lassiter shippers? I hadn't heard it before, but then I suppose I'm not really spending a lot of time in those circles. -
