Fic ‘n stuff
More fandomy rambles…
-Wandered into theforce.net Star Wars boards today, for the first time in months. It seems to be way more civil in there than I remember. (although that may be just compared to OG, which, much as I love it, is pretty mental at times)
-I want to watch ROTS again, but I cannot, because Dead Ringers is on in twenty minutes.
Fanfiction to work on:
Star Wars: The ‘picking up the remnants of Making one. May or may not end up being called A Certain Point Of View.
Spider-Man: I just need to finish Everyone Has A Choice, then I can sit back and wait for the third movie.
Doctor Who: THE GINGERBREAD HOUSE- which I think I may wait till the end of the series to even start.
THE CHAIN- a sort-of AU about what if one tiny little decision by a certain character had gone the other way.
Many, many crossovers, because DW is one of the most crossoverable fandoms of all time.
One where Trisha and Jackie talk about What Transpired In Age Of Steel. (It would be mostly a Jackiefic with Trisha on the side, however, and probably quite short)
In Film Studies today we were told that Fandom might come up on one of our exams, and we ought to go take a look around the Internet. OMGWTF THEY’RE STUDYING US.

Fandom in a film studies exam? Damn I wish I was doing it this year! Maybe it’ll come up next year as well XD

I’m getting such bizarre images in my head… ‘Say how far you agree with the view that HERMIONE/RON 4EVER LOLZ and H/H SUX. Consider: age and gender of shippers, whether the texts were written pre- or post- OOTP, and the GINNY IS A SLUT!!!11one theory’ …or not. XD (I think I ought to go to bed…)

You know, I’ve noticed tf.net boards are a little saner lately as well. I only now recently have gotten really into hanging out there; before they would make me angry and emo. ;) Or maybe I just get angry and emo less now. Really, I think maybe now that the movies are done with, the fandom has shrunk just a tiny bit, and people are sort of settling in for the long haul now. Not fandoms! O.o :D Actually, in the past year I’ve been solicited to take questions for two different studies on fandoms, one out of Australia, the other from Sweden from all places. Someday, we the fangirls shall unite take the world.

I never knew you hung at the TFN boards! What’s your user name? So you’re writing a SW story? That’s really cool. I really need to catch up on ‘Everyone has a choice’…

My name over there is Sarahthenerd, but there hasn’t been much fanfic in a while. (don’t go looking for my old SW stuff, most of it is terrible. ;) )
