- pir8fancier: Trust Me - Part of what an author does is slight of hand. [...] This is why a book will often work as a whole despite its weaknesses in bits, and why a WIP will suffer in comparison if not followed by subsequent chapters lickety-split. It's because the reader now has time to think. Which is BAD! You don't want the average reader to start thinking. You want them to be yanked into your world and mesmerized by what you write. -
- tishaturk: TV and movie vids - I want to try to articulate a few general thoughts about TV and movie vids. I'm particularly interested in the reasons that vidders make (and viewers watch) TV and movie vids, and in the conditions that govern viewer responses to them. -
- tencrush: Jack scissored his fingers WHERE? - I find every so often, the angle at which fic writers approach a relationship like Jack/Ianto will change, due to new canon or speculation, and suddenly romance will be higher on the agenda, or the top will become the bottom, or some such thing) and, not being an avid reader, I wonder if these are specific to this relationship, or more general slash tropes, or what. -
- mrs_cj_harkness: Smut: What does it mean to you? - What is it that makes a good smut fic? [...] what is it that turns you off a smut fic? -
