screaming loud enough to turn back the wind

so i’ll be making a presentation in my writing class about how to use fanfiction for creative writing and student engagement

anyone got a quote for me about how fanfiction helped them learn to write / encouraged them / anything else along these lines?

What are your favorite fairy tale retellings?

So let’s say someone felt compelled to write about the time a brave woman goes back in time to work with her younger self to keep a truly terrible person from being elected leader of a country? What would be a good name for the garbage bag wearing a human suit?

Is there anyone who has the time or desire to read 57000 words of a One Direction RPF WIP and then talk it over with me so I can try to finish it?

[Poll #1973925]

So, I've seen the movie twice and it is awesome - but where is all the fic? Dude! It's such a fun film and needs all the fic!

I was ambivalent about Channing Tatum before but he's totally won me over, and Jamie Foxx is badass. And Channing Tatum's daughter is badass. And the tour guide is badass.

I want fic! Where is it?

Also! My Loki's kids megacrossover of doom broke 11,000 words today and everyone is finally about to be reunited.

If you could have me move the entirety of my fics in one specific fandom to Ao3, which would it be?

So, first off, I voted for Mike the Tiger - I'm so glad he won!

Second off, which of my fics do you wish I would upload to Ao3?

Alright, these guys are Mr. Badass Waistcoat, The Most Dangerous Animal In Africa, and Bacon.  Can y'all guess who's who?

Why is that no fics I've read have ever mentioned that the Warriors 3 + Sif committed treason? And Heimdallr?

Fact: Odin (the king, even if he is a douchebag, and a dude all of the aforementioned jerkasses are supposedly loyal to) banished Thor for being a war-mongering, easily-angered, going-to-get-everyone-killed idiot. Yes? King banishes prince, takes his magic (mostly), and tosses him down to Earth to prove himself.

Fact: Odin then falls into the most helpfully timed healing sleep ever and for some reason his wife doesn't take over for a few days. Okay.

Fact: Odin has a second son and he takes over. Makes sense because there’s an heir and a spare, right? Heir’s out of town so spare steps up.

Fact: So now we have an Acting King, who, while he may not want to be king, he is not, at least, easily angered. Like, he didn't actually want to go to Jotunheimr, and he almost got them out of there without fighting - except, oh, right. Thor decided to start a war. Which he got banished for.

Fact: Warriors 3 + Sif don't like Loki. For some reason, neither does Heimdallr. So what do they do? They decide to ignore not only Loki's commandments, but also Odin's - that dude they all claim to be loyal to. You know why the Destroyer showed up in New Mexico? Because the king had traitors he needed to deal with, and they happened to be on a planet that didn't have a treaty with Asgard. And if all the humans would’ve stayed out of the way, a few buildings might have gotten singed, but we’re a hardy people. We can deal with that.

So. No fic I've seen has mentioned the treachery, and how that might have added to everything else Loki was dealing with. Why? Because he’s “the villain”? He was following the king’s rules and keeping the banished guy banished because – as evidenced by Thor on Jotunheimr, he wasn’t ready to be king.

Yes, Loki’s my favorite. Yes, I mentioned the above in one of my fics, and a prompt I left in the kinkmeme. But I can’t recall any other fic about it.

It just makes me mad. *sigh*
