jadesfireI feel like I've just got into SGA fic, only to get out again. Having conquered my fear of ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
sga_flashfic, I'm about to post my second story there (I'll update the running list later - it's getting to a respectable length, now). Yay me :D The first was fun because I love to play with dialogue, the second was even more fun. I started out in writing by writing 'flashfic' where you only had an hour to write your story, so I had a go at the 38 minutes challenge (as in "Write a story in...") and loved it so much. You're not so hard on yourself when you've written in a short length of time, and I think it's good for the perfectionist in me to see that things can come out well, even when they're not perfect.
But I really want to get back to Torchwood. Jack is very insistent that I finish his story before the Season 2 starts in January, and has kindly conceded that yes, he does like the first plot I've come up with. So he and I will be holed up for a while, trying to figure stuff out.
In the meantime, I can't rec strongly enough![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
perspi's Beneath Your Heart, dealing with Teyla in S4 (*edited for spoilerphobes*). It's just such a wonderful look at how things could go, that I know I'm going to be disappointed with how they play out on screen next year. This should be canon. The tone is perfect and everyone's in character - it made me smile and sniff in equal measure.
Go, read and flail, like I did.
