Please join me in welcoming paraka as a new mod for atlantisslash. paraka is a talented vidder -- check out her Big Bang video -- and she's got some great ideas for this community. I'm looking forward to seeing what she's got planned!

Welcome, paraka!

Greetings from your long-absent and thoroughly negligent mod. I have a couple of announcements.

1) ( An apology and a request )

2) ( Porn! )

Don't forget that Saturday is a Very Special Day!

We hope there's a good SGA representation for this event. The SGA fandom here is small, just a speck of dust in the microcosm of this fandom, but we hope everybody who can will contribute a drabble, an icon, a manip, a haiku ... "from each according to his abilities" and all that!

BTW, florida_minxie has created bbtp_challenge where you can find links to everything created for this event. At the end of the day I'd like to do a master list of what we've posted to put it up there. (If you'd prefer your piece not be linked, please do let me know.)

Now! Go ye forth and create porn!

You may have seen this in some other journals (and if you haven't, then please post it in yours to spread the word far and wide):

florida_minxie is pimping an idea that's well overdue. As we've all been moving house and wondering what'll befall fandom, we've been neglecting a very important thing: porn!

Your Mission is...

(1) Pimp this in your journal
(2) Write or Draw fandom smut
(3) Post on September 01
(4) Comment, Comment, Comment

Whether it be a drabble or icons or commentfic, we can all contribute a little something to the critical mass of porn. C'mon, Atlantis fans -- let's get something started!

Your loving mods,
seleneheart and lilithilien

Well, despite already having a fic posted, this is the introductory welcome post from your mods here at atlantisslash. We're so happy you've joined IJ's own little slashy corner of the Pegasus Galaxy.

Whether you draw original art or make manips and icons, write drabbles or 80-page novellas, make fanvids or fanmixes, or even just watch and comment, we hope you'll participate and help make this an active community where everyone feels welcome. We'd love your feedback about what you'd like to see here.

To kick things off, we have an impossible question to answer:

What's your single most favourite fan-created SGA slash piece? Why?

Hard, we know, especially when this fandom has some of the most creative people we've ever seen. But if you could just use one piece to win somebody over to Lantean love, what would you pick? (BTW, don't be shy to rec something you've written!)

Now we don't know whether to hope you guys pick all our faves to narrow down our own choices or to give us lots of new goodies to explore...

Have fun!
seleneheart & lilithilien
