Look, I’ll be honest and say that I have a very weird sense of humor. To that end, I love serious stuff, but I’ve also got a serious hankering for the crackfic. It makes me happy.
So I love slash, crossovers, and crack. What does that mean? Obviously I have MPD, and each one has her own voice.
Heroes & Villains, by Harper Kingsley —
When I wrote “Heroes & Villains,” I was channeling all the superhero comic books, cartoons, and fics I’ve always loved. That sort of wry, “life just sucks so get over it” kind of voice.
If you don’t love comic books and superhero novelizations, you probably won’t like “Heroes & Villains.” Same if you don’t like slash – non-descriptive, relationship slash – but a relationship between two dudes. This book’s probably not for you.
Ersatz, by Sol Crafter —
I admit that perhaps I poured a little too much crack into this fic ^_^; I thought it was absolutely hilarious and I had way too much fun writing it, which may have been a warning sign.
Too much angsty back story and melodramatic teenaged girl dudes for one small book. I still think it’s cute, but public opinion seems to feel it needs work.
If you don’t mind casual pot smoking, dudes playing too many video games, and a couple of slackers deciding they’re in love, you probably won’t mind this story. It gets a little wangsty, but I thought that was funny so my frickin’ bad. I’ll fix it in the remix I’m going to amend to the original – so for the price of one story, it will soon be two: crackfic original and serious second attempt.
From Diamond to Coal, by Sol Crafter —
Science fiction super genius story with just a hint of crack for flavor. Because come on, in what universe does any super!genius have that much awesomeness in one lifetime? No way.
Since it’s not a Marty Stu, it has to be crack, right? But more through the looking glass crack and not full on tentacle porn, so we’re good. For now.
A step-by-step story building up to the future we caught at the beginning. And we still have to find out what’s going to happen to William now that he’s been sucked into the portal.
I was going to have an alternate world story where he runs into a different version of himself, but I think I steered myself away from that. I tried to kill William instead, several times.
