November 1st is National Author’s Day. Following the events that took place at the end of September, I feel that it is especially important to recognize the amazing fic writers we have in the fandom.

To celebrate Thanksgiving on November 23rd, fics with corresponding holiday and family themes will be posted.

Episode Collection Event: Schedule Update

A recent article written by International Business Times provides the air dates for the remaining episodes of Season 2. The only major difference is that they are taking a week off for Independence Day; a new episode will not air on July 3rd. I have updated the posting schedule for recs to reflect this.

You can visit the Upcoming Events page to view other events taking place in the next few months.

Vacation / Upcoming Schedule

Just a reminder that I will be on vacation for about two weeks, starting next Tuesday June 20th. In preparation, here are a few last-minute reminders. 

  • I have everything queued during the week, so you’ll still be getting a few fic recs per day while I’m away. I’ll check in now and again to make sure everything is running smoothly, but overall I won’t be very active on Tumblr while I’m gone.
  • Starting tomorrow, I will be posting one rec per day for the Max Two ‘Verse series by heartsdesire456. They will be intermixed with other fic recs. As the series includes eighteen one-shots of varying lengths, I feel that this is the best way to still provide a variety of recs while also making sure that I don’t forget any of them.
  • The Episode Collection Events on the weekends will still be taking place. I will be monitoring the fics that are posted to A03 concerning the newest episodes and reccing them during the week in order to prepare for the weekend. 
  • The only break in the Episode Collection Event will come next Sunday, June 18th, as the recs will feature parenting fics in honor of Father’s Day.
  • I will also continue reading fics and preparing recs for the Fic Preference Poll Event while I am gone, which will begin on Monday July 3rd.  

Please feel free to let me know if you have any questions. I hope you all continue to enjoy the recs over the next few weeks! Happy reading 🙂

Today kicks off the first weekend of the Episode Collection Event for 2B!

It will feature fics based on the events of 2×11 and the promo and sneak peeks for 2×12. Stay tuned for recs leading right up to the new episode’s premiere on Monday night. Happy reading!
