Jack/Sam Fic Recs

[AmberLM]

Yes!! Thank you!

It's a great fic but the sequel involves

Spoiler:

Sam being pregnant with Jack's baby. I didn't get any further than the first few lines, it's a plotline which I consider a personal pet peeve. Just giving you warning if you enjoy that type of plot then go right ahead! Lol

Can it be Sue Corkill's Goodbye Scarecrow? There's also a sequel called There's no place like home. All rated M, so it's a link to her page.
Love her stories.

Thanks for the rec, don't think I read that one

Lucycat, Pol, you're welcome.

XFChemist, thanks for the explanation.

I admit, I don't share the stories I download. In part because I don't generally see the requests until other people have responded and in part because I reformat and make changes to suit my preferences (like spellings of names). I also sometimes edit to fix grammar.

I do that too.

I can't be bothered with editing other people's work (unless I'm their beta)! Once I would start it would probably take me hours and I'd end up rewriting the whole thing...

[Skydiver]

I don't change things either. Although I did obsessively save fic for a while. I have hundreds of megs of fic, some of them really old. and they just lurk on my harddrive.

I guess it's a good thing to be an electronic hoarder, I just kill bytes instead of trees

[Pol]

I have edited only one author's work, and that was only because it was a honkin' huge series, which meant LOTS of opportunities for the repeated (and INCREDIBLY annoying) grammatical error that kept occuring.

What's the name of the sequel?

[Ikorni]

What's the name of the sequel?

The sequel's called There's no place like home. Was in my previous post.

[Pol]

Ah, oops. Sorry. I missed your post and only saw the pg warning.

Thanks!

I do that too.

So do I!

I only save fic if it's so good that I know I will want to re-read it at some point. When I lose interest in a fandom, I delete most of the fic I saved, and I only leave the fic that I consider outstanding. And yeah, I can't resist the compulsion to edit things sometimes... not only spelling and names, but other things too. If a character says or thinks something that isn't important to the plot but OOC enough to jolt me out of the story, I delete it. Or, for example, a recent story I read assumed that John Sheppard's father was a colonel, which is not canon (obviously, the story was written before SGA season 4 aired). It wasn't important to the story, but it broke the immersion for me, so I went back and edited this little pece out in Word! Of course, I never share these edited versions with anyone.

[Seaboe Muffinchucker]

Generally (although not always) my editing is restricted to things I can use search and replace to fix. I delete a lot of "ands" and "buts" at the beginning of sentences, as well as a good third of the adverbs.

Personally, I don't edit people's work. In the same vein, I wouldn't like others to do the same to mine unless they're a beta.
