Palimpsest is best.

How well-known a word do y'all think "fandom" is? I was just watching a rerun of Futurama that mentioned "Star Trek fandom", and was a bit surprised, since I had a sense that it was one of those terms that non-fans might not know. I've been in fandom far too long to be able to tell.

I'm about to link to a story I haven't read, because I know there are some Ender's Game fans on my list, and because this author cannot write other than in pleasing manner. I haven't read the source material in years, so I gave it a miss. That said:

"Meek Shall Inherit" (NC-17, Dink/Ender, underage) by switchknife exists.

If you feel like you might want to read Ender fic, but not quite that kind, there are some other interesting-looking stories on enderslash. I couldn't find an Ender genfic comm.

This seems like a good time to plug rarelitslash, which features some of the obscurest fanfic you'll ever see. Even if you don't stop to read, just looking at the headers is entertaining.

HP fandomers should probably bookmark tinderblast (aka Brodie)'s list of authors with an LJ username different from their pen name. If you are one, or you know one (besides me -- I'm already on there), be sure to head over and let her know.
