Rec-Go-Round: Rec me a story you've written that you're proud of, any genre, here on my LJ.
Then go forth and ask the same in yours.

This is your chance to self-pimp the story you want me to read. 


It really hard for me to decide which story is my favorite. Ironically the two I like the most were the two the received the fewest readers for different reasons, mostly the pairing or friendship element . Unspoken was listed as McBeck because that was the slash in the story, but it was really more about John and Rodney's friendship. The other was Butterfly Effect. It too got fewer viewers because it didn't go slash, although I'm thinking of rewriting a different ending for that one.

I have just read 'Unspoken',and I can't understand why you didn't get many reviews, as it was very good and well written. It was nice to see John's struggle with Rodney and Carson's relationship, and how a past experience effected his judgment. And poor Rodney...he did have a extremely hard/grueling/punishing time didn't he. But I am glad that it worked out well in the end.

I am looking forward to reading 'Butterfly Effect' later on today.

well. i enjoyed butterfly effect very much. it works perfectly well like it is. although, being a mcshep fan and after watching the follow-up video, i really can't say i'd regret reading a different ending. ;)

Well, I can't pimp to you because I'm pretty sure you've read all my stuff and I know I've read all yours. Write more! :)

As for Unspoken and Butterfly Effect, god, I just love both of them. Butterfly Effect may not have gone into explicit slash but the emotions were so strong in that piece, that it gave me smile and feel all gushy. However, should you decide to write a different ending, I'll squee and squee. :)

Thanks. I do love all your stuff. Your kinks match mine. ;)

Yeah, that was the opinion of a lot of people. Thanks for saying so.

Butterfly Effect is one of the most amazing stories I've ever read. I read it in January, and now, months later, I still get teary-eyed thinking of certain scenes. Your portrayal of the relationship between John and Rodney is just... well, I haven't got enough adjectives to describe how wonderful it is. Whether you write a slashy ending (which I wouldn't mind *g*) or not, this will always remain one of my favorites. I'm so grateful to have been able to read it.

Yes I am a newish reader and I really loved 'Butterfly Effect' and the video of 'At Last' was a lovely touch.

Oh I meant to add that if you are interested I have written four very short stories and they can be found here

Wow, thanks so much. It really was one of those that nagged at me until I wrote it.

I really loved Butterfly Effect. I'm usually not very much into AUs or prequels, but this worked for me.
In fact, all your fics work for me :-)
As per feedback - I admit I sometimes forget to leave it. See, I rarely read directly from LJ post (or any web pages). The font is usually too small and I have to copy it to Word to make it bigger so my eyes won't kill me (I can only print that much, unfortunately). And I sometimes forget to come back and say how much I loved the piece *hangs head in shame*. I promise I try better, because I know that without feedback, you guys might stop writing this fantastic stuff and what would I do then? :D

Thanks so much. Just knowing you read it very cool. *G*

i really enjoyed both these stories when i read them and i'm rather sure I left feedback. though of the two stories my favorite was Butterfly Effect, I loved the concept, the way it was written, and I loved the friendship between McKay and Sheppard.

Thanks for saying so. I really did like that story and how it came out.

Just stumbled across this page earlier, went away and read Butterfly Effect and was totally blown away by it. Beautifully written. Particularly loved young Rodney. Have not watched vid as yet but kinda feel, as much as I love slash, this story works beautifully without it. Am away now to read other stories.

Cool. Glad you liked it. It's one of my favorites. :)
