I WANT A TORCHWOOD_LAS

That's what Writer In A Drawer was. I belive it usually goes inactive when there's active canon. You can shoot the maintainer an email and see if they plan to do another. Fannishwaldo ... I think was the maintainer of it?

Yeah, she asked right before MD started, but I guess the response was not good, because nothing came of it.

yeah, there's a general malaise in writing for TW right now. I think there was a similar drop off after CoE. But WIAD is the best known, if it can get off the ground, it's still the one most likely to draw in enough authors to make it work.

There was a woman who was running ... dozen's of LAS but she just had RL shit on her big time and most of them are down (was in the kink one briefly, before I remembered I don't do well in contest environments).

Yeah, I did her whoverse one.

There was a bunch of LAS comms about, but they kind of died. Mostly due to the mod in charge having RL crap on her. If they come back up, I'll poke you. There was a Jack/Ianto one along with a more general one - but I'm not sure if it was Torcwood specific or more Whoverse that included Torchwood.

I did the whoverse one. I saw that there was a j/i one, but that is not interesting to me. :(

I like the Jack/Ianto pairing - I think it's sweet. But I got kicked out on the second challenge, so I don't think people like the sweetness. :D

The big Whoverse one sort of scared me. At the time I learned about it, I had fandom knowledge but was a bit rusty with writing in it.

LOL i made it to the top four, and then two of us forgot, and heddychaa won. I was like, "oops."

I went from reading 4 hours of fic a day to now maybe thirty minutes a week. As a voracious reader, I'd definitely appreciate something to spark the great writers into action. Make it happen, yo!

that is what I am saying! I think that waldo posted and there was little response because the people who might write for it now aren't on the comm.

I don't tend to check comms anymore either, but if someone did decide to get it going, I think there are enough of us who could use our personal journals to get word out.

I'd really like to use Waldo's format. Like lift the whole thing, but I don't kow how she'd feel about that.

Can't hurt to ask :) Since I don't really write, I'd be willing to help out in an informal way.

i COMMENTED TO wALDO'S LAST POST.

I guess if no one steps up I'd do it. I don't want to. I want to read/write for it. :(

I wish I had a more reliable schedule! I've learned that making any time sensitive commitments, as a beta or co-writer or what have you, tend to blow up in my face.

i AM JUST GLAD THAT YOU ARE WRITING, BABE.

This sounds like loads of fun and I don't know why. I've never done one and I haven't written Torchwood fic in ages, except for a porny Tosh fic I did for [livejournal.com profile] mmom.

I think it would be great because they're short, etc etc etc.

I do love short fic. I don't really write anything else. I've, admittedly, always been intimidated by WIAD. I remember thinking about signing up for it and chickening out.

I think you should totally sign up! I hope to god we get something in place.

THIS HAS TO HAPPEN.
