CoC Ficathon

Whee! I'm participating in the Characters Of Colour Ficathon at [livejournal.com profile] choc_fic. My prompts are Mahandra McGinty (Wonderfalls - yay for new fandoms!) and Gunn/Gwen, Angel ... and I just realised that I've written Buffy fic, but not Angel fic, so yay for two new fandoms :D The fics are due on the 2nd and 17th of September, respectively, which makes them pretty much the perfect distance apart to do both.

Also, a feedback meme:

Leave a comment to this post with a link to up to three stories you've written that you'd like me to read and leave feedback for. I will read anything you link me - even fics with pairings I usually wouldn't read, or in fandoms I'm unfamiliar with; but the more familiar I am with something, the better my feedback will probably be. Unless stated otherwise, we're talking warm and fuzzy feedback of the "this is what I loved" variety - if you really want con-crit, you have to say so.

I'm familiar with Buffy, Angel, Firefly, Roswell, Heroes, Gilmore Girls, The O.C., Veronica Mars, Harry Potter, Doctor Who, Dead Like Me, Wonderfalls, Arrested Development, Bedford Diaries, and probably a bunch more, including books and movies. If you're not sure whether I'm familiar with a particular fandom, you can leave a backup link(s), or ask me to read the fic anyway.

What a sweet meme, darling :)

If you'd like, here are my three most favorite stories.

Veronica Mars: They Don't Always End With a Sunset (http://starxd-sparrow.livejournal.com/21573.html)

Supernatural: Underneath This Shroud (http://starxd-sparrow.livejournal.com/31738.html#cutid1) - A quick rundown - Dean is Sam's older brother, and John is their father. They hunt demons. This is pre-season, so I think that's all you need.

Doctor Who: Crataegus laevigata, or Why the World Spins Backwards (http://starxd-sparrow.livejournal.com/36496.html#cutid1) - A quick rundown - The Doctor travels in time, and Rose was his companion. They were in love, but they were separated. Oh, and the TARDIS is his ship. It stands for Time and Relative Dimension in Space. And if you don't watch this show, it's incredible. For me, it's love like I had for Buffy and Veronica.

If you'd like, give me three fics to read, any fandom, and I'll certainly leave you some love ;)

Ooh, yay, I can't wait to read them!

I've watched (new) season one of Doctor Who and part of season two, and I completely love it :D And I have season one of Supernatural on DVD that I haven't watched yet in a vain attempt to get vaguely caught up in my existing fandoms before adding new ones :P

I'll read + post feedback tomorrow - I'd do it now, but it's one a.m. over here, and I'm guessing you'd like the feedback to be somewhat coherent ;)

Oh, question: how spoilery is your Doctor Who fic? I know the s4 casting spoilers, but not what happens in Last of the Time Lords, and I don't want to spoil myself too much if possible.

Not at all, really. As long as you know who his companion is, you're fine ;)

What an awesome meme. I'm totally stealing it to post now.

And when you have the time, I'd love to hear back on what you think (con-crit on all of them, yes please!) on my fics Variations on a Theme (http://community.livejournal.com/vm_library/54519.html) and it's prequel, Like Leather on Skin (http://community.livejournal.com/vm_library/16800.html).

Also, because I know you don't think VM RPF is the devil, Bitten. (http://community.livejournal.com/kb_jd/15166.html) Please be sure to comment on my entry with this meme on my LJ. :)

All Sylar/Claire, but none are especially romantic... I tend to lean toward the angsty. I don't mind some con-crit, if there's something that really jumps out at you...
