Oooh, just found an interesting WIP by abundantlyqueer, the creator of the immaculately plotted Two Two One Bravo Baker series.

Overclocked (on AO3)

Teaser: John's a doctor, Sherlock's a wreck, and the signal's getting lost in the noise.  A cyber-AU about love.
WIP; last update May 2; currently at 3 of 16 chapters.

I loved the careful world-building in ( Read more... )

Um, holy shit, it's a Sherlock band AU.  A really fucking excellent one.  AND IT'S GEN.

(so maybe we're a bliss of another kind), by Lady Paperclip (paperclipbitch)
Sherlock BBC
gen, band!AU, PG-13

Usually I'm all slash all the time with fanfic, because even if a fic is disappointingly mediocre, at least I get my slash itch scratched.  When a gen story is mediocre ( Read more... )

Others have posted this, but it's a nice interview.  I'm always pleased when the actors behind shows and characters that I like turn out to be so intelligent, and full of insightful things to say.  And while I have no interest (zilch, nothing, nada, consummate anti-interest) in the kinds of supposed actor insights provided by gossip mags, and so ( Read more... )

Since the beginning of this year (2012), I have read a truly frightening amount of Sherlock (BBC) fanfic. And not only have I found some truly awesome writing, the fandom seems hellbent on providing more... It's hard to keep track, and I've been driving myself nuts trying to remember what WIP fic I need to check for updates.

So here's a list of ( Read more... )

Can anyone help me find a WIP Sherlock BBC fanfic?  It’s making me nuts lately.  It’s a zombie apocalypse AU (serious, not funny, so it’s not “A Brief Account of Life with Zombies,” though that’s a great fic).  Sherlock, John, and Mrs Hudson are cooped up in 221.  The story opens with John arriving home from Tesco or something and getting treed by ( Read more... )

Gah, I let work take over my life and haven't been posting any fic recs here for the past month.  But BELIEVE YOU ME that doesn't mean I haven't been finding and reading more awesome Sherlock fic. Holy shit, have I been finding it.  I can't even understand how this many brilliant writers have found their way to the Sherlock fandom and have been ( Read more... )

I'm extremely remiss in not having mentioned one of my top 3 current favorite fic authors: etothepii  I can't say enough good things about this author, honestly.  My favorite fics are below.  (It probably looks like I listed everything etothepii has ever written in this fandom, but she's prolific, and I only manage to list about half, I swear :)

A zombie apocalypse AU (duh).  Holy shit did this give me a good laugh when I needed one.  A cut above mere crackfic. Love the use of texting/e-mail/memos to carry the story and humor.  "Boom headshot ( Read more... )
