SG Awards - My Flist in the Gen section

I haven't read all these, they're just the ones by my friends that I could find. Asterisks indicate personal favourites.

( My flist is a talented bunch, really )

Housekeeping

My head is still a mess at the moment, so I have vague hopes of actual content somewhere in the not too distant future. In the meantime, I've been doing a little housekeeping.

I was going to say I wrote nothing in June, then I opened a whole bunch of tabs, so apparently I write even when I don't think I'm writing.

( The List )

That's 6 ficlets, just under 2,500 words in total. Not too shabby.

Then, of course, there's my tardis_bigbang entry, which was written over a few months so I'm not sure it counts towards my June total.

Nothing Else But Change
27,000 words, Jack, Gen.

( Thinky thoughts and why I love this story and wish I'd written it differently. Including thoughts about Jack, philosophy, getting back to basics and the lasting influence of Buffy the Vampire Slayer )

Wow, that went on longer than I meant it to! Thoughts, feedback and concrit is welcomed and encouraged for 'Nothing Else But Change'. I knew what I was going for, but was aware I didn't quite hit it. Anything that will help me get there next time would be much appreciated.

This...isn't really the Housekeeping post I meant it to be, but I got a bit carried away and it's now time for coffee. Maybe now I've got it out of my system I'll be able to post about what I *really* wanted to post about later on.

Hope everyone's having a good day *waves*

Found in the library

A student, lying in the middle of an aisle, flicking through a book. So far, not so unusual. Except that he had his laptop with him and was wearing headphones. When I went behind him, he had the tennis on full-screen on the computer, while 'reading' the textbook. Honestly.

In completely other news, the SG Awards have just opened for voting. The category system makes the librarian in me twitch, and I only clicked through the Gen section. It was actually an interesting exercise, since it reminded me just how small the Gen portion of SGA fandom is. In a fandom-wide award system, I would not expect to recognise most of the author's names, and yet. Most of the SGA-Gen writers on my flist seem to have been nominated, as well as lots of friends of friends and people whose fic I'm startled to be on the same list as.

Because finding these things is labyrinthine and I am shameless, allow me to point you to the lists where I'm nominated. At least in the Gen category, these also make pretty handy rec lists. I had trouble with direct links to lists (please tell me if any links are broken), but the menu system works, even if it did remind me of those endless automated phone systems. I kept waiting for it to tell me to press '1' for Slash, '2' for Het, '3' for Gen...

( Why yes, this is a chance to list some of my favourite SGA stories by me and my friends. Why'd you ask? )
