03:52 pm - Dear Yuletide Writer
Dear Yuletide Writer,
Thank you for writing for me! I’m so excited to read what you write. I promise I’m easy to please. By all means, write the story that YOU want to write, that you’ll have fun with or be challenged by.
I like slash, gen, and het. I don’t mind if a fic has a different tone than the source material (ie, if you write an angsty story from a comedic text) in fact, I think it’s interesting. I often like AUs, and things that are risky and experimental, so they sky’s the limit. Go wherever your muse takes you.
Hebrew Bible or Old Testament: Yes, I know ‘the Deuteronomist’ is more of a school than an individual person—so there’s some a lot of artistic license built into this prompt. I’m fine with it if you want to be critical of Josiah’s ‘reform' but please no overly simplistic female gods=good/male gods=bad stuff. Court intrigue is awesome. I don’t feel like explicit sex fits well with this prompt, I see them as having more of an intellectual connection, but whatever you want to do.
King of the Hill: While I wouldn’t describe myself as a libertarian, I definitely have some libertarian tendencies (libercurious?), so I love the parts of this show that could be described as libertarian satire. I love the Supanusaphons. I love Strickland Propane and Buck Strickland. The Order of the Straight Order is usually a recipe for instant hilarity, and if Los Dias y Las Noches de Monsignor Martinez makes an appearance, I will love you forever. I’m not into the storylines where Peggy gets herself into some kind of horrible trouble and Hank has to bail her out.
Please don’t make fun of anyone for being poor, uneducated, rural, from Texas. But I bet if you signed up to write this fandom, you’re probably not into that anyway. And a note about Sarah Palin—while I don’t agree with her politics (no offense intended if you do!) I can’t stand criticism of her that’s sexist, classist, or implies that rural people, or people that didn’t go to Yale, don’t get to be part of the conversation. Or that people who like her are necessarily unintelligent (duh, smart people can disagree). Okay, I’m stopping now.
Doom: Explicit sex is perfectly acceptable awesome. I love the character “Reaper” and I’d love to know more about him and his unit of ‘rental’ soldiers. What are their unit’s dynamics? How are they different than ‘real’ soldiers? PWP is fine if that what you like to do. “First time” fics are not my favorite, but everything from rough sex to BDSM to dub con is a-okay. Whatever you think Reaper is into ;-)
Big Lebowski: I don’t even know what to say about this fandom. Go as crazy as you want. The dog has papers!

I want to save a presentation online somewhere. It's 45 MB--to big for google docs. What should I use?

03:23 pm - Abbreviated Meme. From slybrarian and scrollgirl
Your pairing of choice: Currently, McCoy/Any Male Character. Note my 'girl!McCoy' icon :-)
Your surefire, bulletproof kinks: I will give anything about prostitution a chance. Two paragraphs, minimum. Yes, I know real-life prostitution is generally Very Bad. I will also generally give consensual humiliation a chance, because I like it and it’s so seldom written.
Your most surprising, dirty little secret kinks: Y’all know I’ve never been secretive about any of my fic-ish kinks. Ever. TMI much?
Who tops/bottoms: I write a lot of frottage and oral sex, so it often doesn’t apply in the penetration sense. In terms of BDSM, I see McCoy as a top.
Squicks: I almost always backbutton on BDSM fics where the top doesn’t like BDSM but is just doing it because the bottom wants/’needs’ her too. Boo! One thing I love about the much-loved, much-maligned City of Seven Walls is that it had a real TOP sensibility, IMHO. (Being a top is what’s being eroticized.) I can’t think of specific examples, but I feel like it’s usually bottoming that’s being eroticized in most fics? I don’t know if that’s the sense you guys get. I’d be interested in your opinion.
Cliches/tropes common in your fandom that just don't do it for you: There is SO MUCH MPREG in Star Trek fandom! And while this is completely hypocritical for someone who just said what she said about prostitution, I have a hard time getting past: ‘But a starship is too dangerous for a baby!!! You’re being an irresponsible parent!!!’

03:18 pm - Yuletide!
I think I might do Yuletide this year. I'm becoming less monofannish by the moment.
It's a considerable investment in time to nominate fandoms, if you're going to read all the choices anyway. I nominated:
30 Rock
Animal House
Bible - Hebrew Bible or Old Testament
Dollhouse
The Irrefutable Truth about Demons
King of the Hill (tv)
I was very tempted by:
Big Lebowski
Gattica
Galaxy Quest
Harold and Kumar
Kingpin
King of the Hill
Pinapple Express
Mythology--near eastern
The Closer (TV)
Talladega nights
DOOM
Das Boot (!)
Ayn Rand
Top Gun
Star Trek RPF
And then I spent way too much adding to list of characters listed for Hebrew Bible.
01:50 pm - My Fannish Life in Bullet Points
1. Go look at these amazing pictures of Lena Heady. Go ahead, I'll wait.
So bottom line, I would be watching Sarah Conner Chronicles even if sucked, which it doesn't. I love that John is kind of friends with the robot! And that Sarah almost knows when it's pizza day! (that's pretty much me as a parent, except I don't look as amazing in wife beaters) I love that they live in a normal-person house with an older-model microwave that sits awkwardly on the counter and they don't keep up their yard. The robot is very attractive too, especially in the cute outfits she wears to school (I feel creepy saying that).
Although Sarah should have taught both the son and the robot to take the roast out of the oven. '16' and 'robot' are both old enough to be able to just take it out of the oven and not yell to her in the other room that it's burning. That is a little ridiculous. (As is perhaps my attention to this detail, as opposed to the plot, themes, or characterization in the show.)
2. I re-upped my membership to the Organization of Transformative Works. Check it out! Tax deductible and there's gifts now, cool ones not like that NPR t-shirt that makes you look like a dork at the gym. (I'm surprised 'wearing NPR t-shirt to the gym' has never been on Stuff White People Like.)
3. I finally broke down and bought a Roku for my Netflix.
4. I'm watching Leverage. I have enough moral nuance in my day, I like things pretty black and white in my entertainment sometimes. It's not deep or anything, but that doesn't bother me.
5. NEW 30 ROCK TONIGHT OMG
6. I don't do ficathons anymore*, but I have 1) McCoy/Spock costume party (angels and devils costumes, ha!) 2) Doom! John/Samantha smut to write next.
7. Check out all the updates to my leftover prompts list! Lots of great stuff to read (or write . . . if you're so inclined) I wish more people had these.
*Okay, not like I used to anyway

02:24 pm - Rec Room
The Jack/Daniel ficathon fics are up (most of them), and I can't enough wonderful things about Not a Public Service Announcement by ![[info - personal]](http://s.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png){kind=small}
brainofck
Summary: Daniel assumed Jack knew he was transgender (FtM)--wouldn't something like that be in his file? Now that they've had a disastrous, mutually humiliating hook-up, can they put it behind them and have the relationship they both want--because the attraction isn't going anywhere.

08:48 pm - Star Trek XI Ficlet: (EVERYBODY'S GOT A) HUNGRY HEART (Chris Pike/Frank, NC-17)
Paraphrased prompt from the Porn Meme: Winona's run off to space and left Frank to raise two rebellious kids by himself. Chris Pike, an old friend of George and Winona, is an occasional visitor. When Chris sees that Frank is at the end of his rope trying to raise Sam and Jim, he starts visiting more and more often to help out. He and Frank get closer and eventually fall in love--domesticity with two dad-type-people (that the boys remind are "not our real dad") and Winona coming back and going WTF HAS HAPPENED TO MY HOUSEHOLD.
Here
12:57 pm - Stargate SG-1 Fic: STILL ON WEST AFRICA TIME (Jack/Daniel, PG)
1100 words for the 2009 Jack/Daniel Ficathon.
The prompts were 'competent Daniel' and 'a situation that shows Daniel being an integral part of the team'. I understand the recipient likes archeology, so I used that as a starting point, too.
The search for the Ark of Truth isn't easy. Prequel to the movie.

10:30 pm
My Fic Index is up to 86 works. Lots of little ficlets in there, but still. Of course, if I finished everything started and saved to my desktop, it'd be over 100, easy.
I've written the most in Stargate SG-1: 39 works.
Most popular pairing: Jack/Daniel (14)
01:41 pm
1. I need to get motivated to proof-read by Jack/Daniel ficathon fic. It has the least amount of shippiness that can still be called J/D, but the prompt wasn't relationship-centric! So there you go.
2. I really like this vid. Kirk/Spock, mixture of XI and TOS.
TV:
( Cut for probably not spoilery, but just in case: Sarah Conner Chronicles, Dollhouse, Glee, Stargate Universe )

09:23 pm - Not Enough Fandom Time
:-(
Real life is really hard right now! Foster parenting a special needs teen is pretty intense. We are experienced in foster care but a long term teen placement is new to us. Every single day there is some drama.
You guys are a very nice end to my day, though!
Jack/Daniel fic is not progressing. My prompt is so vague. I think I might end up just writing PWP; oh wait, I always do that.
I'm going to write incest DOOM fic for the Fall Fandom Free for All. Kinkiness seems to increase in times of stress. :-P
08:58 pm - Leftover Prompts List
Compiling the leftover prompts again! Those from the kink meme are linked to their kink meme link.
WARNING: CONSENT ISSUES IN SOME PROMPTS
1. Having a doctor for a boyfriend is perfect when you're a masochist. (McCoy/Kirk)
2. Uhura with strap-on. Bonus points for Spock being a total slut for it. FILLED: Fulfillment (Spock/Uhura, NC-17) by karmic_fic
3. Bones tells Kirk about how his wife divorced him over his sexual 'perversions'. Kirk assures him his desires are normal. Kirk fulfilling a fantasy of McCoy's, and McCoy wanting to do something for Jim as well. (McCoy/Kirk)
4. Boot worship--which is which up to the writer (Kirk/Spock)
5. Spock respects his authority on the bridge, but when they're off-duty, their relationship consists mostly of Spock slapping him around and Kirk giving him head FILLED: Further than I can throw (Kirk/Spock, NC-17) by janice_lester
6. McCoy takes advantage of a drugged Kirk (McCoy/Kirk) FILLED: Once A Blue
7. Kirk learns how to perform fellatio on Spock's (half?) Vulcan penis. Bonus points if Spock gets impatient with his missteps. (Kirk/Spock)
8. Spock gets off on being verbally abused/humiliated (McCoy/Spock or Pike/Spock)
9. Bloodplay: Spock is fascinated by humans' red blood FILLED by 13empress: Bite (Kirk/Spock, NC-17)
10. Sappy domestic fic where they're all over each while they cook together (Kirk/McCoy)
11. Vid: DOOM (Karl Urban and The Rock) with Closer by Kings of Leon. Would prefer shippy John/Samantha.
12. Since I might as well go for broke, this epic hooker!fic prompt from the kink meme, that I didn't write but I wish I had. Not least of which because of the Firefly reference.
13. Chekov is addicted to some kind of prescription drug. McCoy is willing to supply him--for a price. PWP or long angst-fest both welcomed, I just want some evol!McCoy up in here! Bonus if he's addicted because McCoy plotted to get him addicted. (McCoy/Chekov)
14. Chris Pine/Karl Urban They try to have 'roleplay' sex as McCoy and Kirk. Unfortunately, without a script to guide them, they have VERY different interpretations of the characters. Anger, embarrassment, and/or hurt feelings ensue (perhaps because it devolves into a discussion of acting skills). Please let them work things out in the end, though! BONUS: Chris taking it extremely seriously and demanding there be costumes, and Karl being all: 'really?' EXTRA DOUBLE BONUS: Chris wants to pretend to be McCoy. He wants Karl to be the captain.
15. Mirror!Verse: Someone sleeps their way to the top. Someone is attracted someone else because power turns them on. Someone uses sex to get special privileges or to manipulate someone in power--so long as the person who 'officially' has the power is not really the one in control. Any combo of Kirk Spock McCoy or Pike is LOVED

SG-1/SGA, Jack O'Neill/John Sheppard, non-con
Warning: potentially triggering content.

04:20 pm - Fic Rec: AS YOU ARE by 13empress (Kirk/Spock)
ETA: NOW WITH LINK
Not rated but I'd say R or NC-17.
Smart, sweet, interesting insight into both characters. Great Spock voice. The prompt on the kink meme (full disclosure, it's my prompt, but don't let that stop you :-P):
Pre-movie. Kirk is a hustler with some very planetaryily diverse group that travels the universe. Spock comes looking to find out what it's like to have sex with a human--he chooses Kirk because he's the only human available in the group (well, also, he's gorgeous).
Getting Kirk alone, he demands the most 'human' sexual experience possible. Bonus points if he has some major misconceptions about what that's like (his Vulcan classmates filled his head with all kinds of nonsense). I prefer not silly. And for Kirk to be kind
