Weird.

So the pingback_bot informs me that After the End made it onto the SPN News Letter. Which is really cool, but... I don't get it. Why that story and not others? I've been on there a couple of times (which, no, really, yay!), but I cannot for the life of me tell what sort of criteria they use.

Confused cat is confused.

I missed the boat with SPN, but I am obsessively bookmarking every H50 story I come across for future reference.

Hey, is there a storyfinders comm for H50?

There is a fic finder com:

It made me very excited when my obsessive diigo tagging actually meant I knew a fic that was requested. It's the small things in life.

I know what you mean! It makes me all fuzzy inside when I find a fic at spnstoryfinders.

Thanks! *runs off to add*

I wish there was a rec comm for H50!
Not just a list of whats out there.
But it's all good cuz I'm still getting caught up on fic and there is more coming all the time!

If there's not one we could always make one. ;)

How do they usually work?

(What am I saying? I have never modded a com...but it could be fun. This fandom makes me crazy.)

Well it basically boils down to : read everything and tell people what you liked. Do you know about crack_impala or j2_recs? They basically post what they think is the best. There are several different formats.If you were thinking about maybe doing this I might be interestted. PM if you decide to think about it more seriously

Do it!

I will cheer you on. I can't take on another comm (I still have ohsam and one other comm that's going to go up soon, as soon as I finish writing the intro posts), but H50 needs a rec comm!

[jesseofthenorth.livejournal.com]

OK well we are seriously maybe probably gonna but we are both dilettantes when it comes to running a comm, so let me pick your brai. What are a couple of pit-falls to avoid when starting this!

Oh, man. Okay. Why don't you guys email me dbrune4 @ yahoo . com, and I'll fill you in. Comment-boxes are NOT suited for my kind of long-windedness.
