Slashfic-athon

I wrote the first 500 or so words of my slashficathon story but I'm not happy with what I wrote. There's no UST. Not for five cents. And somehow Buffy crept into the equation. Character A mopes about her and isn't remotely interested in character B. Darn! *growls* And I thought the pairing was easy. Character A is just so stubborn....

[livejournal.com profile] mikelesq is working on a Firefly fic. Yay. He hasn't posted yet, but it looks like it's going to be fun.

I wish [livejournal.com profile] eliade would get into a writing groove again. I miss her fic. I like the Sidelines universe, but I enjoyed her off-the-cuff fics and ficlets even more. They were fresher, more immediate and felt as if writing them was more fun than work.
I also miss [livejournal.com profile] wiseacress's h/c series. I feel the need for more S/X. Definitely.
Still want to read S/X, although right now I feel like I'll never want to write them again. Or maybe it's just Xander I don't want to write anymore.

I feel like I'm predominantly seen as a S/X writer, but I want people to read my stories because they're written by me, not because they're S/X.... Sorry if I sound kinda mopey tonight. Maybe I'm just tired.

I wanted to stay up for the Sunday 100, but it's already midnight here in Germany... maybe I should just go to bed. *Yawn*

ETA: The Sunday 100 challenge is posted and it's a freebie. No theme or anything. Hmmm. Oh well, bed. Now.

Also started reading non-s/x stories of yours first.

Things Present-Things Past was one of the first fics I read when I get into the fandom. Later I found your website and read everything that wasn't slash because at the time slash still scared me away.

My brain sees Estepheia and immediately associates your name with great, wonderful fic.

Awwww. You're giving me warm fuzzies all over. *blushes*
Thank you.
So, now slash doesn't scare you anymore? Who corrupted converted you?

You were part of the conversion crew.

Other people that corrupted ... er converted me: Wiseacress, Mpoetess, and James Walkswithwind

Corrupting my innocent little mind with S/A and S/X ... hmmm, I should be thanking you. ;)

Wiseacress, Mpoetess, and James Walkswithwind
Wow, that's great company. *smiles*
