dazedly sets down e-book reader

[kindkit]

I seem to have spent great chunks of yesterday and today reading a novel-length story in a fandom I know nothing about. Nothing. Never seen a single episode.

Huh. I guess in some moods, something as trivial as reading fic in a fandom I know and care about can feel too . . . risky? Too potentially disappointing?

The story, by the way, was Missing Persons, by Dira Sudis (Numb3rs fandom). It's good, sometimes great. But read the warnings first, folks. There are things about this story that could be very distressing.

There's something really freeing about reading in a fandom you don't know. I've read more SGA fic than I've seen of the show, and the same for The Sentinel.

I've read quite a bit of SGA fic and I've never seen an episode. Although perhaps I should say "I've read quite a bit of penknife's SGA fic; she one of the few writers from whom I will read just about anything.
