maddoggirl is calling for folks to
MST their very first Housefic, which caused me to look back and realize that my one-year ficiversary is coming up on
July 5. (
STOP ME BEFORE I PORTMANTEAU AGAIN) That might be a good deadline date if anybody has any fics they've been writing me, or thinking about writing me...
A few stats:
That Time Cameron Had Mono was posted to
house_wilsonand
house_slashon 7/5/06. I had begged for betas on H_W on 7/2 and
hellspoette,
whimsicalwonder,
blutige_liebeand Media answered the call.
Very first comment: "It's unrealistically funny, yet... It fits. Overall good read." by
elva_barr. I actually emailed her to find out what "unrealistically funny" meant and she replied, "... it seemed like a very well-thought out parody. Not really making fun, but your fic to most slash was a bit like Jon Stewart to CNN. Both are good, and equally different, yada, yada." I was bemused (had never intended it as a parody) and yet pleased.
It makes me happy to see that some of my current f-list commented on Mono:
axmxz,
rivers_bend,
idonmatrix,
daisylily(LOVE),
daasgrrl(who I totally fangirled all over in reply), and
purridot(in her prior life as caerulea_cat).

Date: 2007-06-13 04:30 pm (UTC)Can I tell you a secret? In an interview, one of the producers said something about the show going on for eight or nine years, and it made me sad. I'd rather have five high-quality years (with plotlines thought out properly, with that end date in mind) and let Hugh get back to his family then have four great years, two OK years, and two to three years of 'Is that show still on?' (*cough*ER*cough*).
Just keep moving forward is a great philosophy. : )
