icarusAn attempt at cheer.
Hooray for my f-list, and the new Harry Potter readers on Fiction Alley in this rather, (admittedly) miserable period in my RL. I've learned that death-in-the-family is really not one event. It's a domino-effect continuum. But I'll wax philosophical about that another time.
Thank you guys for sticking around as I flop about like a fish off the hook. And thank you to the Fiction Alley folks for having no clue about what's going on, and therefore reviewing stories I wrote four and five years ago. That's been great, to be in the middle of all this crap, pop open my email and find a review of Guy Talk, or Primer to the Dark Arts, or Cursed Artefacts For Sale or the Beg Me For It series.![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
archae_ology for recognizing me in the SGA fandom as "that one who writes a lot of Percy stories" from Harry Potter. That was neat.
Feeling helpless to do anything? I understand. I feel just as helpless withwildernessguru's inconsolable father right now. I'm trying to write him a letter since with his hearing we can't call.
In my case, read my stories. That makes me happy when nothing else does.
What are my best fics?
In Stargate SGA, I think Necromancy For The Living, for its descriptions and the rare unvarnished but sympathetic portrayal of Caldwell.
The Stars Look Very Different Today is a short, painful deathfic, but it's stayed with me because it's one of those stories in fandom with a "sci-fi" feel; you get that they're in space, and that it's not safe out there.
The ones I re-read myself are Traces Through Time, the rather light but sweet gen-fic Power Napping. The other one I read (and wish it was longer) is Breeding Ground. Usually my humor fics don't get me to laugh since I know the punch lines. This one is an exception.
In Harry Potter, I think the Beg Me For It series is the most technically difficult story I've ever written. After that, a personal favorite is the exploration of moral grey areas and prostitution in A Moment Of Sin. I like Snape here, though, no, he's not a nice man.
First Signs Of Magic: Hermione Granger and Cursed Artefacts For Sale actually make me crack up.
I should put some SG-1 in there, yes? Like Colony Atlantis and the long cultural misadventure fic The Walls Of Jericho? Later. I'll add those later.
wildernessguru likes the Teyla-centric The Quick Bird On Hot Sand, the steamy SG-1 Shy Guy, and the Harry/Snape Primer to the Dark Arts.
How's that for a cheerful post? More or less? I'm trying.
