Back to a story rec today and I confess it is one I had never read before today. And it's by viviana, who retired from our fandom some years back, which makes this a very curious fact to me ( Read more... )

Today's post is all about the fun and silly. I found a link to the Drabble-Matic by prillalar. It's a fan-created program that asks for certain input and in return gives you a delightful little piece of fiction. (It's not really a drabble, since that is exactly 100 words, but it is hysterically funny ( Read more... )

And now for a more substantial offering, here is a rec to a story that is masterfully written and so open-ended story that it asks more questions than it answers. What is the story about? You'll have to decide that for yourself.

And because it is so well-written, it will come as no surprise to anyone that the author is none other than azdak.

Here is a story rec from someone we all know in MFU fandom, spikesgirl58, writing under a different name. I'm going to recommend a story I just read for the first time today. It's not part of any series, but squeezes into the aired ( Read more... )

Just so you know, this is neither MFU nor Star Wars related, but it is somewhat fannish in nature, despite today's post being all about holiday photos. Two years ago I attended a training conference down in Orlando, Florida. One of the perks of having to study and test for 5 days is that we get to do fun things in the evening. One evening, our ( Read more... )

Some fans write fiction. Some fans draw or paint or photoshop. Some fans vid. Some fans read and otherwise appreciate the creativity of others. Some fans do meta and analysis. Some fans offer technical support like creating and maintaining websites. Some fans fight for legal protection. We need all those kinds of fans, in order to have a thriving ( Read more... )

Okay, today's entry comes to you courtesy of Kari Ann Kelly, who is clearly a Star Wars fan and motivated entrepreneur. She is selling these bumper stickers from her etsy shop - if I'd known about it in time, I would've ordered all of them. These are awesome ( Read more... )
