Fandom babble, plus meme time.
Jun. 7th, 2009 08:40 pmI've come to the realisation that I probably don't read a tenth of what comes up on my f-list, so I've decided to have a sort. As a result, I've decided it's time to cut some ties.
I've stopped watching all the TW comms altogether. The whole thing just depresses me so much I can't even bring myself to look at fic that is for non-J/I pairings any more unless it's specifically recced to me, so feel free to do that if you think there's something I might be missing out on. There are only two writers whose fic I read in the TW fandom these days and that's because I rate them personally. Given that both of them are already on my f-list, watching comms and watching fic go sailing by whilst reminding me of what once was is just misery-inducing. I have one more fic in progress for that fandom featuring real!Jack, which I've been struggling to finish and might fit within the criteria for
51stcenturyfox's next Porn Battle depended on the selected theme. But that might be my farewell to the fandom.
I've also opted out of all the DW slash comms. I haven't seen a novel idea come up there for quite some time and there's really only so much D/s Doctor/Master stuff I can read without it becoming repetitive. I mean, I know it makes sense, but seen one seen 'em all. Again, I may be wrong on this and if I'm missing something please feel free to tell me, but I think I'm done for now at least.
Finally, I'm tapping out of
museslash. I have one more fic in the works there too, but I've got the only two writers I rate in that fandom on my f-list too so I'm out.
Hopefully with that done, I should have a much better chance of reading through the stuff that I actually want to read instead of being daunted by the volume on my f-list.
And now for the meme, ganked from

We all think we are so close, but really, we know nothing about each other.
So I want you to ask me something you think you should know about me. Something that should be obvious or maybe not, but you have no idea about. Ask away.
So come on then. What you waiting for? :)
