mama's got the magic of plebefic headers!

  1. Rating:PG..PG-13? For a "Bad" word.


  2. [Summary] Jensen had run, with a broken heart, leaving Jared and his world behind, to work with orphaned AIDs children in Malawi. With a new name and a new identity he means to hide, to get back to finding himself. Jared is determined to track him down. Will a shared past be enough to fix them?


  3. Summary: I can’t tell if I’m burning of freezing. I can’t tell if I’m awake or dreaming, breathing or dead. Wherever I am, whatever I am, it’s what you’re not.


  4. Summary: Ryan comes back from collage and buys Brendon's dream house.


  5. Summary: There's poker in the Garden of Eden...[This could make a pretty great Crowley/Aziraphale AU! Go on. I dare you. ETA: Were the angels in the GoE clothed? If so, they could play strip poker. Crowley would have to shed his skin, though.]


I found the link to #2 on [journalfen.net profile] fandom_wank! The Anonymous Writing Criticism Meme made it there last night with some people who were unclear on the concept of "If you ask people for anonymous constructive criticism, they might give you constructive criticism", and this summary came from the writer in question. Good times.

I saw the link to the anon crit meme on my reading page. I try to stay away from things that make me despair of humanity, so I only read the entries for authors whose stories I know well enough to have an opinion of, but there was still much cause for eye-rolling.

Rule: reply to the individual author's post, so she can actually, you know, receive your reply.

--> People reply to the main entry, and don't even name the author they're giving fb.

Rule: reply anonymously, so the author can know you're being honest.

--> "I'm not afraid of putting my name on this!" - proceeds to suck up in a sickening way.

Mostly I just felt sorry for the many people desperate enough for fb to take part in this, who still didn't get any.

And for the person in actual need of concrit, whose friends did their best to make the author believe she shouldn't take the helpful critic's kind advice. (Not the one mentioned on fandomwank, someone else.)

Orphaned AIDs children in Malawi. Oh, fandom: always finding new ways to be an insensitive jerk.
