...is our fandom!?

Just a few tidbits that stand out for me because most stuff is now covered with the Debrief.

It has only been 4 days since we launched

event_horizons on Dreamwidth.

eilidh17 's brilliant idea for a lassez faire all genre prompt and challenge comm with no pressure, no sign ups, just a community of ideas to inspire each other. The response has been truly amazing, the works produced have been a pleasure to read, such fun!

Sign ups are now open for the 2014

jd_ficathon , a big thank you to everyone running the comm,

princessofgeeks ,

sid , et al. Go make some J/D lovin'! <3

The stuff coming out of fedcon has been so lovely, con reports and photos.

annejack in particular has been very generous in sharing her photography skills and writing up a few quite detailed reports on the Stargate panels.

There are of course mixed reactions on the Stargate movie reboots. I'll be interested to see where they take the franchise. I do like the original movie, and whatever they do isn't going to diminish or take away from what we have and have built ourselves from the TV series. I'm happy to give it a go as an AU, or even its own entity. And speaking of,

eilenna has posted Star One's 'The Eye of Ra', a mini musical about the events of the original movie in which Jack, Daniel and Shauri sing! (Floor Jansen plays Shauri, and being a huge Nightwish fan, I think this is *very* cool!). I highly recommend checking it out,

eilenna has provided the movie clip version and the stage version in which the performers adorn Stargate inspired attire.

And,
