Also, our little thread comes up on some of the searches. By discussing Amanda's new project, we are helping promote it. Good job Samandans!

It's a good investment for the military to help their people get the best education they can.
In Sam's case, it definitely paid off - if it hadn't been for her, and all she had learned and discovered, there would be no Earth any more.

Originally posted by Tracy Jane View PostJust a quick musing... I just realised how Amanda-heavy the front page of Gateworld is at the moment There's the big Interview banner, the little interview button, the Sanctuary news, the TV Zone special pic, the Tapping in 14 episodes news and I got the Amanda banner at the top of the page to boot. I was in Sam/Amanda heaven *groans*
And of course also in Amanda heaven but haven't been out there since line in the sand so
I actually never go out there so...

Aaah, the Canadian Rockies *sigh*
I agree, Sieze the day, Nothing is impossible!!!!
Vertigo - inducing for me, but absolutely lovely lakes, waterfalls, snow, mountains. *sighs happily* The universe is a grand place!!
We rarely get snow and I miss seeing it on mountains!
The orange zinc oxide sun block works wonders, doesn't it? hehe

*and I have to admit that I just *had* to google 'dystopian'... and couldn't help but laugh at the first definition listed: 'dystopian - of or pertaining to or resembling a dystopia'... don'cha just luv dictionary definitions?! *
And now that I have a handle on what dystopian means... I couldn't agree more with CG's sentiments RE Season 9!

Originally posted by minigeek View PostThat was fantastic. Loved it. Thanks for the rec!
I guess I can be a bit brave and recommend a fic which I wrote the first draft of and Anni edited with/for me so after a few rounds it became a collaboration. OK so all the good parts are hers and all the sucky parts are mine. She wanted to put my name on it alone but I said NUHUH.

Ya'll probably read it, it's not new.
(I had never read it before.)Words have tremendous power. The right words spoken by the right people at the right times can lift up communities, transform lives, mend relationships, break hearts—even topple empires.

Any "new" news on Sanctuary yet?
I just noticed in everyone's posts, it says sanctuary for all - sounds even better.
The anticipation and my western diet are killing me.Words have tremendous power. The right words spoken by the right people at the right times can lift up communities, transform lives, mend relationships, break hearts—even topple empires.

While I'm at it - Rachel's "Goddesses" is probably one of the best stargate stories I've ever had the pleasure of reading. Ever. Did I mention Ever? It just showed up on ff.net.

So fantastic. Such Carter goodness. And Weir goodness too! Insanely intelligent plot. Wicked character interaction. Better than on television, I'm not kidding. We should rec it on the "Tapping Gates to Atlantis" thread...

Originally posted by Agent_Dark View PostThat was one of the first ones I got
Originally posted by minigeek View PostAbsolutely not. You see, unlike much of the television we've been seeing prior to recent episodes, Rachel writes character-driven stories. You'll be caught up in the action which is *driven* by the characters, and not the other way around. The story itself requires no knowledge of either series to make sense and resonate. It's fantastic overall. If you ask me.
You know what's sad though? This is a quote from Jo Mallozzi's latest blog (I know, not strictly SG-1, but I think it's still revealing).
"On the Stargate front, I’m almost finished my rewrite of Reunion and am, admittedly, a little worried. While the script offers plenty of action, it is primarily a character-driven story. It’ll be interesting to see what kind of notes we receive from the network."
How much does it suck that the writers have to be continually worrying about some kind of action quota? Sure, I love the action... but does every single episode need tonnes of it at the expense of character development?Neep, NZBG, Eileen!

Heck, Denise's "Trickets" series counts among those, as does Rachel's "Pond with no Fish", and there are others I'm forgetting now. Oh, Strix wrote a great one.
You know not what you speak of, young padawan PITA.
even my evolution is a sam/jack fic, just an au one. Mirror, Mirror was gen.
