It's not just official things that are awesome...

Some fannish Doctor Who anniversary things:

1. dbskyler has opened up dw_50ficathon (a ficathon to celebrate all 50 years of Doctor Who with a fic for each one) for ficlet madness to fill all the remaining years - drabbles, ficlets and fully fledged fic all welcome here! (And, dbskyler wrote me this for it, too - Ten, more Zygon hunting and a bonus penguin.) So, people should go join in! (Well, those of us not desperately word-hunting for Yuletide, I suppose... *looks sternly at self*)

2. usuallyhats made a beautiful anniversary vid here.

And I know there were other things I missed while Calufraxing (I am having to remind myself that, actually, I haven't finished there yet, either. 0_o)

... I'm pretty sure there were other things I meant to include, apart from all the things I need to catch up on sometime soon. Actually, I've had two of my prompts picked up for dw_50ficathon, so you can find among shiny other fic already written there, Ben/Polly fic and Eight and Charley by eve11. So, anyway, DW is awesome; so are DW fans.

(And now I can go back to obsessing about Public Eye in obscurity again.)

Glad that you're getting so much pleasure out of the 50th!

Well, it's been fun, after all, hasn't it? :-)

[persiflage-1.livejournal.com]

It has - although I confess I've not been as engaged as I might with the fannish endeavours - largely because novel-writing is pretty damn time-consuming! (I'm writing part 2 of The Saga, now... *sighs*)

So, is it too late for me to fill the 1974 prompt (I claimed it a while ago)?

[thisbluespirit]

No - you can post it to the comm when it's done, even if it's after this week. If it's finished this week, it goes in as part of the drabble/ficlet madness, whatever its length. (dbskyler explained better than me on the comm, though - check out the post there. :-D)

Ah, well, I'm sure most people will have lost interest in Anniversary fic next week. :P

Thanks for the shout out! So glad that I got that little fic out of my brain onto (virtual) paper. :)

[thisbluespirit]

Well, me too! :-D

I've still got to take advantage of this amnesty and churn out that promised Three+Jo+Angels fic... It's in my brain. I just wish I could spew it fully formed onto the screen.

:lol:

Yes, when will they invent a means of doing that? (And, yes, you must!)
