This week’s round-up on narnia_recs
This week we only have two rec. posts:
Art: Five artworks depicting Reepicheep
Fiction: 3 stories of Reepicheep and the Dawn Treader
Next week we are looking for YOUR recs in the following areas: Tumnus & 'The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe'.
These recs will be credited to the first person to tell me about them, unless s/he prefers to remain anonymous. And please feel free to post your own recommendations directly to the community, as long as they are set in or concerning Narnia.
Further News
I have posted quite a few single ship links to narnia_recs, but because it is a free asylum, it has a limited number of links to display on the page. I have therefore placed all the single ship links on one page and linked to it from the 'links' display at the top of the page. http://asylums.insanejournal.com/narnia_recs/6495.html
This week I found a community that holds competitions for Narnian icons. They’re active, but struggling, and I’ve seen a lot of great icons around, so take your fabulous icons over there and support them! Friends of Aslan http://community.livejournal.com/friendsof_aslan/
Did you know that FanFiction.Net has 65 Communities devoted to Narnia fan-fiction? Each community archive specialises in some aspect of Narnia. Want Susan/Caspian? There’s a community for it. Just Pevensie Incest? It’s there. Strangely fascinated by Jadis? Got a community for that too. Check them all out at: http://www.fanfiction.net/communities/book/Chronicles_of_Narnia/
I just don’t get the point of fanlistings, but this one is relevant to the theme, so here it is... Valiant - The Reepicheep fanlisting http://funderful.org/reepicheep/ |

A little early this week - I have a busy day tomorrow. This week we again have three rec posts:
Art: 3 Royal Portraits
Non-fiction: 1 Prince Caspian review + further reading
Fiction: 3 gen fics suitable for all ages
Next week we are looking for your recs in the following areas:
Art, Non-fiction, Fiction: Voyage of the Dawn Treader
These recs will be credited to the first person to tell me about them, unless s/he prefers to remain anonymous. And please feel free to post your own recommendations directly to the community, as long as they are set in or concerning Narnia.
Further News
A new Narnia fic exchange is starting. Fics need to be 800+ words. Further details at: http://community.livejournal.com/narniaexchange/976.html
I have also come across another Narnia recs list! Unfortunately no-one shared with me the fact of its existence, or I probably wouldn’t have started this one. However now that I have planned this one as far as Christmas I am not going to stop, especially as we are on different sites. I am sure the LJ site must have a lot of great recommendations, so you can check it out for yourself at: http://community.livejournal.com/narniarecs/
Enjoy! |

This week's round-up |
[Sep. 30th, 2008|03:48 pm] |
This week we have three rec posts to start the group off:
Art: portraits of King Peter and Queen Lucy
Non-fiction: 4 POVs on the 2005 movie of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe
Fiction: 3 authors who have created distinctive multi-fic Narnia universes
Next week we are looking for YOUR recs in the following areas:
Art: I would like to recommend portraits of Queen Susan and King Edmund, so if you know of a particularly good one please share it!
Non-fiction: reviews and blog posts regarding the recent movie Prince Caspian. Did you read any reviews or blogs that made you really think - or sent you sky-high in fury? Please share them.
Fiction: Must-read Narnian stories. This is my challenge to you: If you could only recommend ONE story about Narnia to share with a friend, which one would you recommend? Which story touched you, inspired you or made you squee fangirlishly? Please share it with us, so we can all enjoy it.
These recs will be credited to the first person to tell me about them, unless s/he prefers to remain anonymous.
And remember that I am hoping that eventually this will become a self-sustaining recs community, as well as a resource for new readers. So please feel free to post your own recommendations at any time, as long as they are set in or concerning Narnia. |
