On the Air!

On 11/22, abby82 alerted us to Chiller's exciting US Thanksgiving marathon events, in which Geraint Wyn Davies will host "his favorite episodes" of FK!  These air 11/24-11/25 and again 11/28-11/29!  And what are GWD's favorite episodes?  Season one: 5. Season two: 11. Season three: 0.  I expected BM, which he directed, but I was surprised to see BMV on his list.  Interesting!

Fanfiction!

• On 11/15, Leela-cat announced that she has begun posting her long-unavailable-online old FK stories on her Archive Of Our Own account.  [She's right; she made me very happy. :-)] [Update: She has finished posting all her FK work, except one unfinished novel, and including "Broken Promises" -- last seen online in 1996.]
• On 11/12, pj1228 posted her well-conceived UF story "The Relapse," which I had the privilege of beta-reading.  Even if you're not inclined to the UF, she has a new approach to a specific canonical moment.

• On 09/08, abby82 uploaded the three promos for Chiller's Labor Day FK marathon.  ("Before Edward. Before Angel. There was Nick. The original vampire with a heart is back. The cult hit that drew first blood and proves that you can't have twilight without the Knight.")  And she teased those of us who do not get the Chiller channel with the observation that "Chiller edits made completely new scenes!"  (Turns out, it was the original CBS cuts, which, yep, had their own special versions of several scenes.)

Discussing Writing

• On 09/20, abby82 recapped her summer FK writing, of two short stories and an in-progress scifibigbang novella or novel -- an AU, perhaps interestingly, as I know some of you love AUs best, and FK fandom doesn't often do them.

What I've been up to is: work eats my life and health and I would like a different job.  What you all have been up to is the following lovely FK-ness on my LJ Friends List:

Labor Day Marathon on Chiller!
On 09/04, abby82 shared the great news that the Chiller channel is marathoning the first fifteen FK episodes (that's "Dark Knight" through "Dying for Fame") on Monday 09/07.  There may be a better way to observe the Labor Day holiday than with our favorite civil servants, club owner and temporarily dead DJ... but I'm giddy that FK is on TV in the US again!

• On 06/28, ithildyn posted a link to YouTube footage of the famous Green Eggs and Ham reading by Nigel Bennett and John Kapelos at Syndicon '97.  Natsuko Ohama is with them.  (I was actually at that con!  You will not be surprised that the "Unsuited" affiliation was invented following this event.)

• When the news about the SciFi Channel rebranding itself "SyFy" (um, right, that'll make 'em cooler than us) came out, many remembered the days when Ms. Hammer ran the USA network and with it FK's third season, including ithildyn here, wiliqueen here, studiesinlight here...
  
• pj1228, on 03/15, reviewed A Bug and a Bag of Weed, a comedy with Nigel Bennett.

Recently, in FK on my LJ Friends List:

Graphics.  abby82, on 02/14, shared many Natalie collages created for halfamoon.

Comparisons.  endcredits, on 02/20, compared a BBC show titled Being Human to FK.  BH features a vampire and a werewolf (both with Nick-ish humanity-love) who share a house with a ghost.  There are Lacroix and Natalie equivalents.  Her clever post made me laugh a lot.

Fanfiction.

Ficathons

• Celebrating Female Characters.  The femme_fic ficathon, on 02/01, began accepting sign-ups.  They're unscreened this year, so take a look!  A wide variety of fandoms are offered.  Only one FK request is up so far, and while it's a very nice request, it would be outstanding if there were more.  (I'm hesitating over my sign-up because of Real Life obligations, or there would be two already.  But, you know, seduce me with more FK prompts and offers, right? ~g~)  Sign-ups are open through 02/28.
  
• Celebrating Claire Rankin Characters.  falcon_horus, from 01/23 through 01/28, collected prompts for her Claire Rankin-characters drabble-a-thon.  The prompts went up on 02/01, and there was a dash of conversation about Fleur and Natalie on 02/07.  All the drabbles posted so far are about Rankin's non-FK characters; I intend to produce at least one for Fleur.
  
• Female Characters, and also NC-17.  abby82, on 01/23, promoted two separate ficathon-style events, "Porn Battle VII" and halfamoon, for which FK is eligible.  The halfamoon community celebrates female characters, and their event runs 02/01-02/14.
  

Individuals

• Icons.  ithildyn, on 02/03, pointed us to her freshly updated icons-to-share page, which includes FK icons, among many others.
  
• Meme.  The "extras to order" fanfiction meme drew FK responses from hearts_blood here and from amilyn here.  And ithildyn here and havocthecat here offered, but no one asked them about FK.
  
• Actors.  pj1228, on 01/30, reviewed Just Buried, newly released on DVD (Region 1 only), which co-stars Nigel Bennett.
  
• Conventions.  Someone who posted under a lock on 01/29 announced the "Breakout Before Moonlight" con this summer in London, and noted that while it's mainly a Moonlight con, some longtime FK fans will be there.
  
• Nostalgia.  Someone who posted under a lock reminisced on 01/28 about a wacky multi-fandom round-robin story (including FK) that we participated in long ago.  Thanks for the memories!
  
• Wiki.  susanmgarrett, on 01/19, mentioned that she has been putting story listings on the Forever Knight Wiki, and invited authors to drop by and list their stories, or clean up entries. Separately, apparently someone had mislisted her as a Perk. Egad.
  
• Fiction and Actors.  abby82, on 02/01, posted a new story, "Illusions of Mortality," written for, um, "Porn Battle VII."  On 01/21, she shared scads of GWD photos from American Psycho 2 (2002), which she says was an intentionally campy movie costarring William Shatner.  Ger plays a psychiatrist.
  
  

Recently, in FK on my LJ Friends List:

• Poll.  oldschoolfic (out-of-production-fandom fanfic) is taking a poll.  What would inspire you to write or read more FK?  Let them know!
  
  

• abby82:
  • Challenge.  On 01/17, mentioned an upcoming multi-fandom challenge using Twilight Zone episode titles, and how she thought FK's assorted dream sequences (and one AU) might fit.
    
  • Fiction.  On 01/11, posted her fiction year-in-review, including five FK stories. She listed her Cohen story as the one that most "shifted perceptions of the characters" in 2008.  On 12/25, she recommended two FK Yuletide stories. 
    
  • Vidding.  On 12/31, posted her vidding year-in-review, which includes four FK vids about different characters.  On 12/27, posted -- Ravens and IBs, take a look! -- the Janette one of those vids, "What You Are," with a snazzy banner by 77words to boot.  And on 12/24, she happily pondered more vids, including a Nick one.
  
  

• Fiction.  amilyn, on 01/02, revealed that the Yuletide story written for her was an FK one, Natalie and Janette, "Conversations in Passing" by kynical.
  
  

• Reviews.  pj1228, on 01/01, announced that she will be expanding her LJ from just FK fanfiction to commentaries and reviews of other things with the FK actors, the first of which she posted about The Border (CD and NB) later that day, and the second of which appeared on 01/12, about "Jesse Stone: Sea Change" (NB).
  
  

• Fiction.  havocthecat, on 12/31, posted her 2008 Fanfiction Round-up, which includes one full FK story and two FK crossovers.  She named her FK story, "Could They Choose Between," her favorite of the year.
  
  

• Crossovers.  ithildyn, on 12/21, mused on crossing Magnificent Seven with FK.

Recently, in FK on my LJ Friends List:

• abby82 shared a new T+V vid to the song "Almost Lover" on December 17; this is one of precious few Tracy vids I've ever seen.  She also posted a new N&N story titled "Flight of the Imagination" (Rated R) on November 16.  (It has not yet appeared anywhere else.)  And on November 11, she posted about her works in progress, several of them FK, including a crossover with The Border.
  
  
• dj_clawson mused on vampirism and abstinence in FK and Twilight on November 23.
  
  
• amilyn added a link to her fanfiction to her LJ sidebar sometime before November 30 -- at least, I think she added it.  I think it was not there when I'd looked previously, but I'm not always alert to these things.  In any case, she's got five FK pieces and one FK/BloodTies crossover there, none of which, I believe, are in the usual FK archives.
  
  
• ithildyn, challenged to list all her holiday fanfiction, noted her "A Ghost of Winter's Past," with FK's Lacroix and HL's Methos, on December 8.  And on December 4, she recalled meeting ninjababe on IRC in the FK channel, back when.
  
  
• endaewen talked about updating her fanfiction site on December 13, with the Forsaken Fandoms award she won for her "Faire Things" (Best Fluff), and a new FK crossover ficlet with Highlander: The Raven, titled "The Raven In The Raven."
  
  
• pj1228 posted her episode-like second-season novella "Disclosures" on December 17.  I had the privilege of beta-reading this one, and she has said she is thinking of a possible sequel.
  
  
• There have been many wonderful memorial posts about tv_elf, some of them mentioning her FK fandom.  Thank you to everyone who has shared memories of her!  If you posted only to your own LJ, please consider cross-posting or linking your memorial post on the Horsechicks' memory post; that specific URL has been shared with her family and non-fannish people who love her and miss her.  (They're hard posts to make, I know. I keep crying when I try. I got to be at her memorial, though; the Horsechicks, bless them, characteristically dubbed it "Abby-Con," and that's amusing her no end, I'm sure.)

Recently, in FK on my LJ Friends List:

• abby82 posted assorted season-one FK icons on October 5, shared a new promotional photo of Catherine Disher in The Border on October 13, and posted her very first animated gif (from "Dark Knight, The Second Chapter") on October 18.
  
  
• havocthecat posted "Five Ways (and Six Universes) Where Elizabeth Weir and Sam Carter Don't Meet" on October 16.  One of those universes is FK!  (The home universe is Stargate Atlantis.)  As you know, the actors who play Weir and Carter were in FK's "Last Act" and "Near Death," respectively.
  
  
• amilyn recreated her impressive Natalie Mood Theme/Set on November 2.
  
  
• dj_clawson wrote a Forever Knight/Indiana Jones crossover comment-fic on November 8!  Professors Jones and Girard, circa 1954.  Funny!
  
  
• In ficathon news, galpalficathon is coming up: due November 16.  You can decide to participate at any time, right up to the last second; there is no claiming or assigning in this event.  (For convenience, I concatenated the FK prompts here.)  And of course yuletide sign-ups are open.
  

Not on LJ, but worth noting, Jean G. has relocated her website.  If you have links, you'll want to update them.  (I'm way behind on forkni-l as always, but just happened to peek into the 11/05 digest and see this.)

Recently, in FK on my Friends List:

• Potential Fanfic!  On October 3, ithildyn considered the c.1849 flashbacks in FK's "The Code," and how to cross FK with Magnificent 7.  Does the idea of Chris/Janette strike your fancy?
  
  
• Upcoming Ficathon!  On October 3, the oldschoolfic moderator confirmed that she is planning an end-of-year prompt-a-thon and story exchange.  (This is the community for out-of-production shows like FK.)
  
  
• New Fanfiction Posted!  On September 30, the current "Back-to-School"-themed oldschoolfic ficathon was due, and there are two FK stories this time!  (Naturally, there are also nice stories for other fandoms.)  For FK, we have:
  • "Twenty-Five Minutes" (G) by abby82 for the prompt: "the girl in the photo on Captain Amanda Cohen's desk" (~800 words).
    
  • "Fearful Symmetry" (PG) by me, for the prompt: "In 'Spin Doctor,' Nick says he had some remarkable students; how did he say goodbye to them?" (~7K words).
• Ficathon! DVDs!  On September 22, abby82 mentioned the galpalficathon FK prompts (available now, ficathon due November 16), and that the The Border (with CD and NB) is coming soon to R1 DVD.
  
  
• Meme!  On September 17, ithildyn posted an FK quotation meme.

Also, voting over at the forsaken_fandom awards is open through Monday, October 13 (Rules, FK List, FK Ballot).

Recently, in FK on my Friends List:

FK on Individual Journals

• On September 1, abby82 posted eight new FK icons (images, some artistic enhancement, no captions).  She also mentioned the fk_icons community, of which I hadn't known.
  
  
• On August 26, both wiliqueen and abby82 posted about the Gemini Awards nominations, which include Catherine Disher's work on The Border and Ben Bass in Would Be Kings.  (I've heard a lot about The Border, but Would Be Kings is news to me.)  Beyond those biggies, wiliqueen spotted Nahanni Johnstone (Wendy in "Dying for Fame") among the nominees, and abby82 shared photos and links while opining on GWD's and NB's TV work in the eligible period.

Multi-Fandom (Including FK) Communities

• On September 6, voting opened on the forsaken_fandom community for their awards (Rules, FK List, FK Ballot).  Some FK authors didn't approve their nominations; I hope they all got to hear about it and choose.  (It has crossed my mind to not vote, because I do not wish to read, nor endorse by a vote, the "non-con" category.  The rules allow underage voters to leave the "adult" categories blank; perhaps I will ask permission to do the same.  Anyway, it's on my mind.)
  
  
• On August 30, butterflykiki linked to the whattheficathon community, which is a crossover fiction exchange that could include FK in its next round, if it holds one, but there seem to have been no FK crossovers so far.
  
  
• On August 27, the oldschoolfic moderators introduced an optional modified challenge for those who didn't click with any of the original prompts.  Stories are due at the end of the month.  (abby82 and I are participating, so we're assured of some FK!)
  
  
• On August 26, the galpalficathon community went up.  This is a prompt-based, commitment-free ficathon focused on female friendship (that is, any positive platonic relationship between female characters: relatives count).  Many people are very excited about it, and prompting is open through Monday, September 8, so check it out!  Leave a prompt for Natalie and Janette, Janette and Urs, Urs and Tracy, Tracy and Cohen, ( the list goes on ).  I have not submitted any prompts yet, but I will (there are as yet no FK prompts there).

Recently, in FK on my Friends List:

• On August 11, graphiteslog sketched out a Forever Knight/Sapphire & Steel crossover that sounds quite sensible and intriguing.  (And if any of you have ever heard of Sapphire & Steel before, she would probably be gratified to learn of your existence.)
  
  
• On August 8, ithildyn pondered an FK/HL story she wrote in March, called "Shattered," which, to her surprise, ended up featuring Nick.  She mentioned an eventual sequel.
  
  
• On August 5, someone posted something noteworthy, under a lock.
  
  
• On August 2, abby82 recapped aspects of a recent "Curiouser & Curiouser" discussion on forkni-l.
  
  
• On July 20, abby82 recommended two FK f/f stories: Havoc's untitled Fleur/Kate piece, and also "What Makes a Mortal Interesting," a Janette/Natalie story I'd never seen before.

Recently, in FK on my Friends List:

• On July 16, amilyn posted "Somewhat Useful," a traditional drabble (100 words) featuring Schanke and Urs.  (Yes, you read that right.  It says, "Schanke and Urs."  Honest.  Credit the prompt to wiliqueen.)
  
  
• On July 14, ithildyn made remarks about a FK/Iron Man, Janette and Tony crossover idea.  I can only assume that egging her on would be a positive step, even though the story could never be posted to fkfic-l (rules, rules).
  
  
• On July 11, abby82 posted her Schanke vid "The Rockafella Skank" to a song by Fatboy Slim.  I am not familiar with this music genre, but the Schankeness is pure.  It's a light-hearted, totally pre-"Black Buddha" production.  (And it's the first vid she ever made.)

As for me, after a hectic, horrid, work week, I've used up just about all my hobby time this weekend reading and remarking on oldschoolfic ficathon stories by my fellow players, and thanking those who kindly replied to my story.  What I want to be doing now is taking greerwatson's advice and adding a "Relative Reality" column to my Places & Things of the FK Universe list.  Honestly, when I began it, I meant to list only the fictional things unique to FK (e.g. the Borchiver Award from "Can't Run, Can't Hide").  But I blundered into some that are quite real (e.g. Humbar Nurseries from "Only the Lonely") and greerwatson is very generously sharing her Toronto expertise to make the distinctions for the benefit of FK writers.  I hope to get that scrubbed and up this week, if not this weekend.  (What is it with Real Life, eternally interfering with fandom? ~g~)

Are there other FK-eligible ficathons on the horizon?  If not, I've promised much_madness that I'll try to address her taste for ficlets (101-1000 words) in some way.  And I still owe hearts_blood that NCIS/FK unbirthday crossover.

Recently, in FK on my Friends List:

• wiliqueen posted her promised "DVD Commentary" on her 1993 fanfiction "To Drive the Cold Winter Away," starring Natalie and Nick, with appearances by Stonetree and Janette.
  
  
• abby82 discussed her vidding progress on a Schanke celebration and a "Last Knight" commemoration.  [Added 05/25/08 10:47 PM: She has posted the LK vid.]
  
  
• shenandora posted two Lacroix graphics, "Friend in the Nightcrawler" and "Dear Nightcrawler."
  
  
• ithildyn posted the final part of an extensive crossover called "I Remember You Not Fondly," which includes Lacroix.
  
  
• In a public conversation on someone else's LJ, butterflykiki pondered writing new FK fiction. She should be encouraged in every way! ;-)
  

Did I miss anything?
