Where No Sheldon Has Gone Before....(Fan Fiction Recommendations)
#1
In response to a request from Cassius Moriarty (and who could ignore such a name?) we now have a Fan Fiction Recommendation Thread. Please deposit links to your favourite bits of verbiage here, along with, perhaps, a little spiel about what occurs within the story, or why you particularly favour it. Or you could just dump the link and scarper.
Like so;

General blether on the topic itself can also go here, naturally.

The Flames Went Higher- Lauren notalwaysweak- Sheldon gets his tattoo. Set in "The Bear Population of Southern California" AU Rating: T
I know, I know 'Sheldon? tattoo?? NO WAY IN HELL...'
I get that Sheldon+tattoo= OOC, but being the proud owner of many tattoos I had to see how this would turn out. I loved it. Tongue

This is the tip of the iceberg for my ff recs. My interest changes from time to time so the genres will bounce around.. a lot
Also I want to say that I have read/seen a lot of the work of some of the members of this site have created I am blown away. I have barely enough creativity to fit in my pinky toe and I'm glad there are those out there that choose to share their gift.

Cheers for doing all that O Queen! Much appreciated.
All I feel capable of apparently, is posting pictures of Sheldon flailing about like a tit, but I'm sure others will now be spurred into link-posting action.
Or we'll set the Morlock Morlock Morlock on them.
That icon NEVER gets old!

So this past weekend was ff update day by a lot of great shenny writers. My queue is getting longer and longer.

Being fairly new to Shenny fanfic, does anyone know how many stories MattFU1 had before he took um down due to trolls? He just recently reposted and I'm curious.

I think he had 2 that were completed, plus another he co-wrote with Defygravity18-Rooftop Quandry. He had a couple of others that were in-progress, but I doubt he will repost and finish those.
Oh wow, oh wow, what an adventure.
