CALLING ALL RPS WRITERS

[bubosquared]

Amy (synicism) and I are planning an RPS zine, if we can get enough submissions. Would any of you be willing to submit something? There would be free zines for submitters, of course.

EDITORS! Yes, please? :) Just tell me what fandoms you'd want to edit. :)

Editors!

If you're taking editors, can I be one as well? I think you can guess which fandoms I'd want to work with...

Oh, I'd love to have you! (Er. That didn't quite come out the way I intended. Um.)

I'm guessing one of them starts with a C and ends in re? :) Oh, speaking of that, if you have any recc's in fandoms i'm unfamiliar with, please let me know? I seriously odn't know enough about some fandoms to be able to judge.

Well, yes, Cure, and U2, and Sex Pistols, and Beatles, and Depeche Mode, and Duran Duran, and...I'm sure you can guess what sorts of things I like. I don't really do actorslash at all, so it'll have to be musicianslash, but other than that, I'm pretty flexible. (Erm...)

Do you read Cure fic at all? I've kind of drifted from the fandom recently, but one stand-out story that immediately comes to mind is tangerine's gorgeous The Walk (which, okay, I'm biased about, since I did beta it). ta's site is down indefinitely, and she didn't have it archived anywhere else, but I can mail you a copy if you're interested. Another good one, which I'd also have to mail, as the archive it was on appears to have vanished forever, is Adrift and stawberry girl's A Night Like This, a historical AU featuring Perry as an innkeeper, Simon as a witch, and the rest of the band (current lineup) as thieves. Purrr. However, it never did get finished, so it might not really be suitable for publication. Just recommending.
Also, in the world of Duran Duran fic - if that doesn't completely squick you - there's the Horrible Crush trilogy by "Alizarine," a pen name for Jemiah Jefferson, whose original vampire novel Voice of the Blood (http://www.jemiah.com/writing/novels/vox1.html) can be found in stores everywhere (and is fucking brilliant).

Want any more?

Somehow, between the time I wrote that and now, I've managed to get sucked into Cure fandom. Funny how that happens, innit. You go about your business, then you get shown a picture of Perry and Simon kissing, and suddenly you're shaking your fist at people and defending Lol.

No, I'm sane, really.

So yeah, please mail me those stories? I'd be ever so grateful. :)

Gack - forgot to link The Horrible Crush (http://there.indyramp.com/fiction/crush.html). It's really good, I swear...
