Sam Carter /Jack O'Neill Ship Appreciation Thread 2.0

[MylittleEli]

Wow... thanks a bunch everyone for all the links. Feel free to keep 'em comin' but I already have enough bookmarked to keep me busy for a while, which is sweet

I'll be sure to send over a little care package, you'll need sustenance. Make sure you leave breadcrumbs so you can find your way back!

Just make sure there is chocolate... Jack is always better with a little chocolate *drops first breadcrumb* And I'm off to shippy fanfic land!!! *eyes glaze over in joy*

I love it! I have a secret for everyone here... this the the 1st fanfic I have EVER READ!!!! THanks for sharing and I'm glad this was the first I've read... I'm off to a good start

Thank you for reading! I've been writing fic for a long time, and it's something I really enjoy. It's a lot of fun to explore these characters in new ways.

This is great! I chuckled at quite a few of them, but laughed right out loud at #40 - the one about "Death Knell".

Thank you everybody for the nice hellos! I appreciate it!

I've done a Jack/Sam story over on livejournal, which I bring as sort of a casserole to the potluck. I hope it's ok to post the link here, and that you guys like it. http://artaxastra.livejournal.com/357420.html

Great fic. Really nice flow and rhythm. I'm not a fan of the fanfic trend of writing in simple present tense, I find it distracting and it's not a good model for young writers.

That said, this was well done and handled beautifully. Great job. Thanks for sharing and welcome to the family.

Funny!

Video project update:

Spoiler:

gater62 can't find a way to record her voice, I'm so sorry but probably I'll have to give her sentences to someon else.
I have no news of BrenRen...where did she disappear?
So, is there someone else interested to join this project? You just must have a microphone and a program to record your voice.
Let me know!

Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I'm not exactly a young writer though! *g*

Sorry for the double post

But since I still don't have all the voice recs, I made a vid with my dear friend Camilla. It's again a trailer for our favourite fic writer. I know that almost nobody here speaks French, but the English version will be ready very soon.
Btw, since she is French and we are Italians...and here there are a lot of amazing writers...is there someone who wants to be a Beta reader for her? Please!

The fic is called Collide

[Treknik]

Too right - addiction warnings should be given especially for those really long ones when it's a case of "just one chapter more then I'll go"

I love the really long ones! I just noticed that my 'Need to Read' folder is really full, after bookmarking a few fics of Jenn's that I haven't read.

Sorry, I didn't mean that you're a young writer. You clearly said in another post (and your writing reflects this) that you've been writing for a while. More, but it's OT to this thread

Spoiler:

I merely meant that the "simple present" tense is a habit a lot of new writers pick up from fanfic (I'm a professor, I see this a LOT). It's also a trend that has recently spilled over (uncorrected) into the media during news coverage - which makes me nuts.

If used properly, it can be an effective too. Unfortunately, a lot of young writers (those with no read "edited" experience) tend to slip and shift tenses. That's all I meant.

And, for the ON-topicness,and because I am writing about it in this week's Campfire...Pretense caps.

I really like this vid. Wish I had the talent to do this kind of stuff cause I got some great ideas (especially with regards to Jack and Sam ) but its totally beyond my abilities right now!

[Valerie_Jackson]

I would love some suggestions i anyone has any.

Well, I'm sure by now you've got tons to read, but I'll pimp my fic anyway.
A Sam and Jack Christmas. It's not finished as my SJ muse has completely left me, and my Bones muse has moved in.
and this, which was written by me and my good buddy (shel, as she is known by here on GW) Click me... and review... please?

Love this! If it was on ff.net I would put it in my faves.

How brilliant is this! How true it is! Laughed a lot on this

well that makes sense - too may this's - ah the trials of writing after coming in from a night out

[majorsal]

Yes, and also what would have happened if Cooper had remained a writer and not showrunner.

is it wrong to squee at this idea?

[yessika]

is it wrong to squee at this idea?

Nope

So, I got distracted for a while by RL but I shall continue watching SG-1 tonight even though I should be doing homework

[Akamaimom]

I got this...idea today. A fic idea. A...challenge...if you will. I was walking to class this afternoon and spotted two of my students. They were having a fun, rather lighthearted discussion when he suddenly bent and kissed her. She looked so shocked and then delighted, it was rather sweet.

I'm going to be flat on my back for the next two days, anyone wanna write a "first kiss" story? A 'how it came about' kind of thing? No limits, try to steer away from clichés, but...anyone?

Pol came up with this idea a few days ago, and I couldn't help but do something with it, so I thought I'd share:

Nothin' but Fluff, baby! Two first kiss stories rolled into--well--one, but it's two chapters. . .

Two Sheets, One Blanket

I hope you enjoy. . .
