Crickets chirping...? Appeal for gen fic! (Let's call it SG-1 Gen Fic Day.)

[fignewton]

I have the immense privilege of tagging for sg1_debrief, which mostly entails skimming through the newsletter's flist in search of gen fic. (The maintainers do the really hard work, and I think the other taggers cope with a lot more volume than I do.) There's always less gen fic than ship fic, but I'm resigned to that as par for the course by now.

But what's going on here, people?

Since the 17th, there has been one gen fic posted throughout all of LJ SG-1 fandom that gets tagged for the newsletter. ONE. (Thanks for that, dknightshade! I don't follow the jack_built AU, but it was a fun snippet.)

So here's my appeal: write some gen fic today, please! It can be commentfic posted here, or a drabble on your LJ, or a snippet of your current WIP. Fic recs are good, too, like the ones posted below: here and here. Anything. Gen is the one kind of fic that embraces all aspects of the fandom, so let's have some SG-1 love!

Erm... but not that kind. :)

[And yes, I'll try to post something ficcish myself today. I can't ask for it if I don't chip in myself, right?]

ETA8: Monday, 6:45 p.m. ::smushes all ETAs together:: I've compiled a roundup of all the fantastic participants! You can find the complete list for Gen Fic Day right here.

OMG that totally wasn't meant as a criticism of your tagging skillz :(. It was meant to be a not so subtle, go read jack_built it's awesome cracky fun. I just realised it didn't sound that way :(.

Sorry.

Don't worry, it didn't come across like that at all. :)

jack_built isn't on the newsletter's watch list, so it's not getting tagged. dknightshade reposted her T fic on her own LJ, which is on the watchlist, and therefore did get tagged.

It's as simple as that. :)

I did wander over there and read a few of them (the Sha'uri ones had me melting in a puddle), but while it's quite a fun AU, I really do need that big stone circle in the basement. ;)

Um. I sat down to get all the jack_built stuff for the last issue, since I realized at the last minute it wasn't on the watch list, and just ran out of time. You people are too prolific! :)
