Roswell

Post a comment below to take a turn pimping the Roswell fandom!

A week in advance of your assigned month you will be notified with a reply to your comment. During that time, you agree to post a minimum of 1 fic per week in the following format:

Subject: Title by Author (Rating)

Fandom: YOUR FANDOM
Pairing: (no abbreviations, please)
Author on LJ: (if applicable)
Author Website: (author's fics, if available)
Why this must be read:

Emphasis should be on fics that you feel are especially outstanding and accessible examples of your fandom, e.g. it plays on a repeated theme in the show, it's a fandom or a personal favourite, it was a controversial fic, it's good smut. Whatever.

Warnings are not required beyond what the author has posted on their own stories.

Thanks for playing and remember, kids! Without you, the crack_van will run out of gas!!

if no one else is up for the roswell pimping, i'd be more than happy to do it... i've been in a bit of roswell revival lately.

You're up for November recs! More info to follow by email. :)

[popgurlie.livejournal.com]

fantastic! i'll start compiling...

[cybermathwitch.livejournal.com]

I'm up for reccing Roswell in december. It would be a great way to decompress from NaNoWriMo and to reread lots of beautiful fic.

A lot of the stuff I know is Tess/Isabel, with some Max/Isabel, Michael/Isabel, and lots of other pairings thrown in. (For me, at least, it's a free-for-all shipping show.

I can do Roswell in January. :)

[virtualinsomnia]

I'd be happy to take Febuary. :)

[twigged.livejournal.com]

Just confirming you're up for December recs. I'll send you an email with more details shortly. Thanks!

[twigged.livejournal.com]

Are you still planning on January Roswell recs, Livia?

[liviapenn.livejournal.com]

Sure.

[twigged.livejournal.com]

Hey! You're up for February Roswell recs. I'll send more info by email shortly, so please let me know if you don't receive it, or if you can no longer play. Thanks!

[virtualinsomnia]

I got the email and will be glad to rec! I'll get started as soon as the 1st rolls round. :)

[grissecon.livejournal.com]

I'm up for doing Roswell recs whenever you need me.

Re:

[twigged.livejournal.com]

Great!! Would you be available for March? I'll send you some more info by email. Thank you!

Re:

[grissecon.livejournal.com]

Definitely.

::runs off to get links ready:: *g*

[stephiepenguin.livejournal.com]

I will rec for Roswell for April, as I think I will have the time (I've wanted to rec for a while, but this is the first month I've actually had the time to do it)

[gilkurtis.livejournal.com]

I'm willing to rec some month.

[twigged.livejournal.com]

Great! I'll send you an email with the posting guidelines, etc. later tonight. Let me know if you don't receive it. Thanks!

[twigged.livejournal.com]

D'oh! Disregard that last message (except for needing your email address). I thought Roswell was one of the fandoms I was looking for recs in, but April's already covered. *g*

[stephiepenguin.livejournal.com]

does that mean you need my email address?

[twigged.livejournal.com]

You have a paid account so I'll send it to you @livejournal.com. :)

[stephiepenguin.livejournal.com]

oh, okay, cool.

incidently, you have a fantastic response time going there.

:o)

[twigged.livejournal.com]

LOL! Once a month (today!) it's really crazy behind the scenes while we coordinate with everyone for the upcoming month.

Crack Van May (Roswell)

[twigged.livejournal.com]

Okay, you're up for May recs! I just need an email address for you so I can send you more info. Thanks!

Crack Van May (Roswell)

[twigged.livejournal.com]

Er... looks like I already have an email for you, so just let me know if you don't receive the message or if you can't play this month. Thanks, and sorry for my disorganization!!

Re: Crack Van May (Roswell)

[gilkurtis.livejournal.com]

It would probably be best if I didn't take a spin at crack_van in May, because the last 2 weeks of college will be killing me with finals and papers galore.

sorry!

[acari.livejournal.com]

I could help out with May recs.

[twigged.livejournal.com]

Thanks!!

Crack Van JUNE (Roswell)

[twigged.livejournal.com]

Just following up to see if you want to take the June recs? I'll send you some more info by email. Just let me know if you don't receive it or if you can't play. Thanks!!

Re: Crack Van JUNE (Roswell)

[gilkurtis.livejournal.com]

I'm ready to rec. Ready to play ;)

[grissecon.livejournal.com]

Is Roswell on permanent hiatus? Because if it isn't (and no one's calling for my beheading *g*) I'd be happy to take another crack at it. I've got plenty of fics to pimp left over.

[twigged.livejournal.com]

Yeah, Roswell went on hiatus because I had trouble filling the slot every month, and then no one answered the call at all in July. I know it was a really active fandom, so I'm surprised I had so much trouble. Do you have any suggestions for me? (e.g. are there any active communities I should pimp to, etc?)

But to answer your question, I will reactivate it if you think the LJ community is big enough to sustain it. Otherwise, you would sign up in the small fandoms thread to go again as a monthly feature. Let me know what you think works best. :)
