Fannish Love Pile: The Post Mortem

[ladyfoxxx]

So - amazingly - yesterday's chat actually ran the full 12 hours, and though it got quiet at times there were always people around. Much fic was discussed, videos were squee'd at, friends were made! Over the course of the day 20 people dropped by to chat, some for longer than others. For those of you who made friends and want to connect on LJ, here's a list of attendees - go be friendly!

Of course, once we got talking fic the recs started pouring out and we collectively decided what the world really needs is a book club for bandom fic! So we can rec stuff and discuss it. Sounds like fun right? Well then, bandombookclub was born! Get your ass over there and join! Once a week we'll take turns reccing a favourite fic, so if you have tabs and tabs of awesome you just MUST share with the world we want YOU. Or if you feel like you've read EVERYTHING in bandom and just want to get at those gems you haven't found yet - we ALSO want you. Get on over and join up.

Thanks to all who came, saw and squee'd. You're a pretty awesome bunch and it was a spectacular way to spend a lazy Sunday. Lots of folk said we should do it again, and I agree, but maybe not quite such a marathon next time!

I don't know who I talked to! When I suggested you to make this post, I didn't consider the fact that:
a) LJ username and AIM username is usually not the same.
b) I wasn't going to be there the whole time, so I can't just add everybody on the list because some of them have no idea who I am.

I do remember Katy, who kept showing up whenever group sex was mentioned!

Bandom fic book club! God, you have the BEST IDEAS. *joins immediately*

It's true that the AIM and LJ usernames are different - I kept note of who was who, but I didn't want to plaster people's AIM names up on a public post in case they don't want that. Hit me up privately if there is anyone you're not sure of.

Katy is barefoot_starz, she really did have a knack for showing up at exactly the right time!

ENJOY THE BOOK CLUB BB!
