Title: TVTropes rec page
Post by: anijen21 on March 29, 2010, 02:12:03 PM
Can we like, collectively, as a group, make this better? My dream is to have a one-stop portal for every amazing Animorphs fanfic in existence, and there's about 8 years worth of material I am not at all familiar with.

Please go to this page (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/FanficRecs/Animorphs) and recommend your favorite fic, if it's not already on there (and if it is, put a note that just says "iawtc" or something?)

for those unfamiliar, the "edit page" button is in a really weird spot, it's like the fifth button in the second row at the top of the page. And if you've never edited a tvtropes page before, either go to this page (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/HowToWriteAnExample) and this page (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TextFormattingRules) to learn how to edit examples (tvtropes doesn't use simple html which is so weird and frustrating, but you can also just look around at the formatting once you're in edit mode to figure out how to modify text, which I think is actually easier but w/e)

THIS PLACE HAS BEEN DEAD LATELY AND I DEEM THAT WE ALL NEED A PROJECT TO COME TOGETHER AROUND! Let's find awesome fanfic and become the envy of all other fandoms on tvtropes, yes?

I really like this idea.

I'll head over and make some rec's as soon as I catch up on life. :P

Perhaps this could even be considered an official RAFProject?

oh I don't know if we need anything that formal but I figured everyone could use a little chore or task or whatever to instigate posting again. Either I've been super bored and impatient or this place has been a ghost town, idk.

A friend of mine of fanfiction.net sent me the above link yesterday. Look carefully and you might notice a couple of familiar stories there, including Book 55: The Difference, by Dinosaur Nothlit (not seen her around much lately). I was even more shocked to see Animorphs Travels #1, by Phoenix004 listed! I'm truly flattered considering how young and inexperienced (A.K.A. crap) I was at writing when I first wrote it. I was 13 when I started it and the first 3 or 4 chapters haven't edited much since then, so I think they're bloody awful! I'm really touched to see my name recognised outside of RAF and fanfiction.net and it's yet another reminded for me to finish the sequel! :P

AniJen21 is also a RAFian ^^
Thanks for this link, it'll help me to choose which fanfiction I'll read (when I feel less lazy :P)

Ha ha, it's okay Dameg, just didn't want another Tyler roaming the boards! :P

Really? I never knew that! I do intend to finish my fic (the one I'm currently working on at the very least) but I honestly have no idea when. I have SO many ideas and very little control on which one my brain wants to work on at any given time. Maybe I'll give it a shot in December after Nano Wrimo is over. I'd love to get #4 over with, as I have big plans for my third fic...  ;)

Out of curiousity, won't some people recommend their 'own' fics? I mean, I do have favs but I am one of those people who would do that (must resist, I am not a pitful person, I am not a pitful person!).

Course, that's silly. We all got favs we want to declare. I also got some that are your fics, anijen (so need to review them @ FFN)! :) I'll see if I'll have time to take part...but considering this topic was like in Mar....meeh...  :-\

But yeah, it's true things had been a ghost town a bit. I hope it's not now. <__< >__> Please tell me it isn'. I only came back from the grave!!!

0_0 Sorry, Lisa. Was just being honest. And I really wasn't going to do that. That would make me a horrible person. :( Me shut up now and go away.

You don't need to apologize to me! I was just opining.

Ah ok. Cough, I tend to do that. I get worried on what I say online. Call me a worrywart if you like. :P

But yeah, it is crass if anyone does that.
