Making the badfic panel superfluous, one tortured metaphor at a time...

[graculus]

For those folks who don't know, every year a bunch of us pervs get together in not-so-sunny Tynemouth for a little get-together called connotations, for which I have on a couple of occasions been encouraged to do a bad fic panel. Said panel, usually a delightful mix of appalling sex scenes and ultra-violet prose of other kinds (with the odd Paul McCartney/MarySue mpreg story thrown in), has been known to cause asthma attacks but has now been rendered superfluous by stuff what people wrote and got paid for.

First it was this post from vandonovan with a delightful example of death-by-metaphor, now it's the good folks over at Dear Author sporking merrily away at the world's least sexy sex scenes.

I...

well, I needed several minutes before I could stop CRYING for the laughing :) and then said to myself: And these people WRITE! And you (me) DON'T! Same on you(me!)!"

LOLOL :D

I should have read your disclaimer more thoroughly, I had to dry my keyboard.

Hubby is laughing so hard he's crying.

And these are published authors?!?

I'd seen the first alread, but as for the second. Oh. Dear.

OMG. Thanks for the link. I went to the second one and it was brilliant, in the appalling sense of the word! I LOLed and LOLed.

Okay.... at least I now have some justification for my belief that anything I've written isn't that bad ;)
