General Discussion and Recs

Here's a link to Wave on Wave's first chapter: http://the-boys-n-me.livejournal.com/652.html#cutid1

Chapter 31 was posted today, so there's already a lot to read for this story.

Thanks. This is next on my list.

I finished "Portrait of a Farmer" and "Passion of a Saint". Enjoyed them both.

I spent the night re-reading "Four-Two Offence" by Annabirmingham.

Summary - AU/AU Jack and Ennis are on the 1st volleyball team at high school. Jack is a junior and Ennis a senior. Jack has recently moved to the area and Ennis doesn't seem to like him very much...


If anyone hasn´t read it yet, here´s a link to the first chapter

Thanks for all these recommendations in this thread.  I'm on the verge of looking for something new to read again.  I'm almost done re-reading 48 Days and Book of Dreams.  It's been fun.  I've been on a re-reading kick a lot lately.  Recently I've re-read Human Interest and as much of TCJ as exists to-date.

I feel like things are so, so slow in BBM fan fic right now.  I hope thinks pick up again soon.  I'm dying for updates to things like The Bus Stop, None So Blind, and of course TCJ (just to name a few).   I've been wondering where Sienata is these days too.

Hi! 

I'd like to ask the mods or admins, if it's possible to change the title of my story thread from" My SNIT" to "Returning to Brokeback".

Thanks!

Anyone?

I´ve read In Plain Sight by Victopet - again.
After every time I´ve read it, I feel like I´m in love. I walk around on pink, fluffy clouds

I´m looking for the Alchemy series (or at least I think that is the correct title). If anyone has it, I´d appreciate it if you could send me a copy

I love it too. I hope there is an update soon. I just love love love Amish-Ennis! The scene where he lays on top of Jack in a plowed field (symbolism? ) and asks "Why do you bewitch me so?"...chills.

Yeah, I love that scene too. And the scene with Jack teaching Ennis baseball in the barn...


I have possibly detected a pattern though. Shortly after the characters in her other WIP story - Brokeback Redemption - finally got it together, she stopped writing on it. Seems to be the same thing happening here. Maybe she just looses momentum once they actually have had sex. Let´s hope it´s not the case becasue Amish Ennis is addictive!


btw. nice to see the story "365 days" updated again (don´t remember the author´s name).


and oh, I´m still wanting the "Alchemy series" if anyone has it.

It's not looking good for IPS finishing is it?     But, then again, never say never, I suppose.

365 Days is a good example.  It just updated again after 11 months!  It's a brilliant story - genuinely funny, excellent characterizations, and very natural dialogue.  It's written by the writing team of fiftyandfifty (comprised of Cathalin and Melisande, I believe).
