"Moving On" by Susan G.

During dinner tonight, I was re-reading some of Susan G.'s FK fanfic that I have on my Kindle. (I have most of her FK fanfic on my Kindle, and on a hard-drive, and in the Cloud. Susan G.'s FK fanfic is not just my favorite, it's nigh unto deutero-canon.)

By chance, I came across a little story called "Moving On" of which I had no conscious memory. Oh. My. Goodness. It was very nearly like getting to read a new Susan G. story.

I can't seem to find it online to link to it for you. Her family kept her site up for years after she died, but... not forever. She died before the AO3 came along. And many of the FK-specific archives have now closed.

So: Spoilers. ( Read more... )

It's so early-second-season. So classic. So ... refreshing.

Susan, we were so lucky to have you while we did. I trust you know now how much good you did, in all the ways, all your life.

Retrotvexchange nominations open

Nominations are open at retrotvexchange (tag set) until July 22 at 11:59pm UTC. This is the new exchange featuring TV canons that closed no later than the 2001-2002 season. Stories (minimum 1K words) come due September 19.

Over 100 fandoms already have approved nominations, including FK, HL, BSG78, and D&DC. I went in tonight and found that I had nothing to do but add characters, friendships, and romances to those existing nominations. I may yet add more. Nominators are allowed up to 10 in up to 6 fandoms.

(I was surprised to realize that neither Buffyverse series was eligible for this exchange. But, yeah: BtVS ran into '03. Of course YB isn't eligible; its one season was '05. Twin Peaks was ruled eligible as long as all prompts/requests are from within the original run; by that logic, I would think that X-Files should also be eligible; I have asked. [Addendum: The mod kindly confirmed that XF is eligible on that same basis.])
