I know TNH, who cracks me up every rare time I see her. She speaketh much wisdom.

Still a WIP, so there's no end yet.
Or, you know, there's an end started, but that whole section is a bit down the road, and therefore isn't up yet, because I've yet to write the in-between scenes.
Cool. I now how that goes, with the needing to put pieces together.
OK, how's this for pathetically fangirl? I'm having another wave of attempted virus hits as that damned bug bounces off mentions of my email addresses on other people's computers. Tonight I got one from Jennifer Oksana's computer, and my first reaction was "Oh my god! Jennifer Oksana has a file somewhere on her system that has a mention of my address! Her computer knows I exist!"
This is sad. I still dumped the bugger, though.
In a fit of MADNESS, and perhaps insomnia, I have updated Recalibration (and redesigned it, kinda--now with images! a whopping 6k of 'em! totally not fandom related!) and Latitude. Buttery will be updated soon-ish, but I'm going to bed before I break something with poor coding. Or worse.
Does anyone know of any good Stargate gen, other than Rheanna's stories?
What's your taste, helen? I'm personally very fond of Tripoli's stuff, but want to issue a warning that The Cost of Doing Business is a bit harrowing. Destina's recommendations lean heavily slashward, but there is some good gen in there as well; come to think of it I believe Tripoli has a rec page also. Yeah, here it is.
Now that I look at Destina's page she's not labeling all the gen anymore. Note that Lovely and Willing (both of which I like a lot) are gen. The author of Willing has another one out, called Surface Tension, which I'd also recommend.
Bright Shiny Objects does Stargate recs as well, though a lot of them are ship rather than gen.
Also, one of the two posts in my lj is a look at the gen nominees from this year's SG-1 fanfic awards. Rather astonishing amounts of crap (which I did not write about, because it felt mean, though you will note a few that I damned with faint praise) but I think I mention a few others there that aren't on the rec lists above. The award site itself, which has links to all of these stories, is here.
Thanks! Some lovely stories there, though I haven't read all of them yet. For Stargate, I like gen character stuff, not too angsty. A good plot is cool, but it's mainly the characters. I'm an absolute sucker for anything which combines 'normal' people with the SGC, but I haven't found much of that.
Anyone around? I pretty much need a quick and dirty beta. (xposted with bfic)
