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.

But but I recently wrote gen fic! Just not of the classic team. And I'm working on more now.

I *know* there has to be more on LJ land. There has to be.

Yes, you did. Vala and Teal'c pwn the rest of SG-1, yes? :) That was the very last fic I tagged last week.

Since then, though...? Just the one from dknightshade. And I don't mean from my rather small flist; I mean in the entire newsletter flist!

So if there's more gen fic out there, I need it to find its way here. :)

Oh. That's very sad then. And the only one you found was for the AU?
*sniff*

I'm barely reading right now, so I'm not very helpful. (RL plus original fic is distracting.) But I put out an APB on my journal for gen fic to help you in your righteous cause.

Hee hee! Thank you! Yes, let's spread the good word and get more gen love. :)
