sinpozium | Links, recs and more!

I mentioned this to a few people - it's great for sharing files even if its only between work and home or family!
Signing up with this link http://db.tt/8vFP9aX will give us both more space - if other Dropbox users want to post your own link you can do so too!

Thanks! I'll bookmark these for later reading *g*

Awesome! Hope you managed to get home okay.

I did. Getting home took a lot longer than I would have liked, but I arrived safe and sound.

\o/ So far it looks like my trip to NZ is not going ahead as planned unless things change overnight because there are no Qantas flights out.

Yeah, all the flights to Melbourne were cancelled when I flew out, so there were a lot of cranky people in the airport. Are any other airlines going? Maybe you could change from a flight to a cruise over there :p

It's for work, so if I don't go it I'm fine with that. :)

Thank-you! *joins*

Firstly, I have a bunch of invites to the Archive of Our Own (http://ao3.org), leave or send me your email address and I'll send you one. (If you left me your email address at sinpoz, you should already have received one.) I recommend it even if you're not a writer, the ao3 has plenty of neat features for readers as well.

Secondly, any volunteers for the org are welcome! Here's the Volunteers page (http://transformativeworks.org/how-you-can-help/volunteer) It's pretty sparse, so I can give you more info about each of the committees and volunteer groups if you'd like. Testers and coders are particularly welcomed, as are tag wranglers, of course. As I mentioned, I'm co-chair of tag wrangling, so it's clearly the best place to volunteer :D

And I'm happy to take any questions, feedback, etc, about tags & tag wrangling at any time!

I have links for almost all of the art I showed, if there is something you'd like to look at again.

So much of the art you showed was so pretty! But I would particularly like to look up the artist who did the really cute chibi Danny and Steve that was at the beginning of the first presentation you showed us, please. :)

Pentapus is one of my favourite chibi artists - I love the way she gets personality into her figures, and they are very cute.

Her various tags are the best way to find her art, particularly the Art Cute tag:

and her commision journal is here:

I'd love links to the SPN artists that you showcased. All of the art you showed was beautiful, but my SPN faves over on DevArt are a little samey.

I tried to pick a wide variety of styles to show *g*. Here are artists from the presentation who have SPN art, plus some bonus ones from my dA watchlist (Aaargh -very long list!):

y!Gallery is the "gay version of deviantART" I mentioned on Sunday. The main thing to be aware of is that the site has a lot of ground rules and they're pretty strictly enforced, so have a quick look through the Terms of Service before posting! Do join the Australians club if you sign up. :D

If you're in Sydney, Supanova is on next week.

Oh cool. I didn't know about the Australian club on y!Gal. Thanks for the heads-up.

I know what you mean about the rules. I don't post much over there because I tend to run afoul of their not copying rule which includes using close referencing for portraits.

I swear, Supanova is just mocking me! I cannot be in the same state as it...

Aw, I still really want a Veronica Mars/White Collar crossover. What I was remembering was

gyzym's fic A Strange New Story Every Time (http://gyzym.livejournal.com/60184.html) which is a Veronica/Logan future-fic with a dash of Neal Caffrey.

Here are my Hawaii Five-0 recs, although I haven't updated with anything that recently :
http://www.delicious.com/alasen/hawaiifive0

My particular favourites are probably: All the girls out on the stoop, and, Mr Rosso goes to hawaii

ETA: link should hopefully work now!

3 major spots for Justified fic:

justifiedslash,

harlancounty and the AO3! SO NOW YOU KNOW WHERE TO POST.

Henry V

Index to the fic is here: http://henry-herald.livejournal.com/

and there's a ship_manifesto essay here http://ship-manifesto.livejournal.com/267441.html#cutid1 which explains the whole thing rather more coherently than I did at the con!

The LJ com is here: http://inspector-lewis.livejournal.com/

Quality varies wildly – I’m not quite sure why, as it's such a thinky show! But there are some useful recs here http://epic-recs.livejournal.com/tag/fandom%3A%20lewis in case you haven't come across these particular fics.

Book pimp which there wasn't time for at the con: The Flight of the Heron, story of a friendship between a Highland chieftain and an English officer during the 1745 Jacobite Rising. Pre-dates Diana Gabaldon's Outlander series (which bears an uncanny resemblance to it, except that FotH is better-written) by seventy years or so. The TV series is up on Youtube; the link's in the post.

Just wanted to say I have been working my way through the Vorkosigan books and am really enjoying them - thank you! :D

I promised a reminder of Fanlore (http://fanlore.org/wiki/Main_Page)!

As I mentioned, we desperately want new editors, and welcome almost everything in terms of fannish history. You can create an account here (http://fanlore.org/w/index.php?title=Special:UserLogin&type=signup), and our introductory material is available here (http://fanlore.org/wiki/Fanlore:Portal).

(Apologies for the lateness! 14 hour train trip of doom killed me dead.)

I forgot to mention, Fanlore also has its DW community located at fanlore (http://fanlore.dreamwidth.org/).

After meeting you all, and realising how many people there are in Sydney, I was thinking about organising a slashmeet. I've got my proposal up in my lj over here (http://pollymel.livejournal.com/189095.html).
