Author Challenge Round 5: New Release Blockbusters

[kag523.livejournal.com]

Fandom is always changing!  In the last few months, some familiar faces  have been dipping their toes into writing for BSG. The following authors bring with them the energy, talent and boundless enthusiasm that keeps the Kara / Lee ship alive.  If you HAVEN’T read fic by these authors, you should be now!  They are changing the face of fandom as we speak!

Three cheers for the New Release Blockbuster category!  (That is why they get my FAVORITE manip!)

Be the FIRST to read these AMAZING snippets of fic... and then guess, argue, and figure out who wrote WHAT.

Author Challenge Round 4: The Independents

[kag523.livejournal.com]

There is an absolute a joy to discovering a fic that is completely different than the norm.  I think these people have done exactly that!  Their fiction puts a new slant on a well-established franchise and makes the fandom even better by challenging the standard and staid approaches.   

Read through these AMAZING snippets of fic... and then go on to guess, argue, and figure out who wrote WHAT.

Author Challenge Round 3: Film Noir

[kag523.livejournal.com]

The following BSG fandom authors have a variety of writing experience, but all of them write powerful, grittily-realistic pilots.  They might not always be our pilots at their most pretty, but they are unfailingly real.  (My favourite!)  Take a look through these hard-hitting selections to see what I mean by their aching, beautiful prose.   

After you’ve enjoyed these AMAZING snippets of fic... go on to guess, argue, and figure out who wrote WHAT.

Author Challenge Round 2: Cult Classics

[kag523.livejournal.com]

Most of these authors have been active in the Kara / Lee fandom for almost as many years as the “Old Hollywood” writers, but I’ve categorized them as “Cult Classics” for their powerful, influential “voice” in fanon.  They are some of the authors you MUST read when you arrive in the K / L sphere and their particular “snapshots” of Lee and Kara have become a sort of requisite “fanon” experience for new shippers.   

Take a little time to enjoy these AMAZING snippets of fic... then go on to guess, argue, and figure out who wrote WHAT.

Author Challenge Round 1: Old Hollywood

[kag523.livejournal.com]

The following authors have been writing for the BSG fandom for many years.  (In fact, while checking dates, I discovered that Lotus79’s livejournal goes back before the turn of the century!)  I’m sure many of us cut our fanfic teeth on the stories written by these authors.  The question is, do you know them well enough to pick up the clues in their writing? 

Take a few minutes to enjoy these AMAZING snippets of fic... then go on to guess, argue, and figure out who wrote WHAT.

Announcing the Oscar Nominees!

[kag523.livejournal.com]

Thanks for the fantastic participation yesterday on the nominations for the Fandom Oscars!  It’s clear from the list on nominations that fandom is alive and well.  (Writers... you should be composing your acceptance speeches!)

Today’s DPP again has two activities for you.  First, as official members of the Kara / Lee Academy you are required to cast your ballots for the best fiction from the last year.  You can find the anonymous poll here.  (In this case, you can vote only once for each category.  In the situation of a tie, I'll be calling a tie-breaker vote the morning of October 16th.)

Not sure about who to vote for... Most of the fics in the voting are listed at karaleefic,
