Fic Of The Week - Week Twelve

[bk_forever]

Two really good fics last week, so only one this week.

I think I'm possibly being a bit overambitious with this week's choice, but if I can't get through it in one week, I'll just pick one shorter fic for next week.

This week's choice will probably already be familiar with a lot of people (judging by the number of comments it's amassed, it's very popular), so if you've already read it, sorry!

Time Enough is by veronicaluv and is one of those fics that I've been itching to read, but haven't got around to because of lack of time. It's only 13 parts, but they are LONG parts, the total coming to over 66,000 words. I'm not a fast reader, I like to savour what I'm reading and give people's carefully constucted stories the attention they deserve, I'm just hoping I can manage to read at least two chapters a day.

First part, the prologue, is here: http://veronicaluv.livejournal.com/94250.html and chapters are linked.

There's no real summary, but this is Ianto's journey, starting, as far as I can make out from reading the first paragraph, in the aftermath of Cyberwoman and rated R for bad language, violence and non-graphic sex. I can't wait to read it!

veronicaluv is the author of one of my favourite CoE fix-it fics - well, not so much a fix-it as a compete re-write that makes far more sense than the original - Forever For You - An Alternate Tale Of The 456. If you haven't read it, I highly recommend it. Part 1 is here: http://veronicaluv.livejournal.com/125015.html .

That's it for this week! Happy reading, everyone!

I hope your stomach feels better soon. I have a fun-filled one tomorrow afternoon with my OBGYN....I am having a problem, I want go into details that I need her to look at.

It is great that you have read 8 chapters. Wow! I wish I had the time to do that, well I use my time badly a lot.

No Coutney yet; we are going out to eat in a bit so maybe when we get back it will be too late for her to come over. Not sure I can take it tonight. I need to wash clothes as always and clean the kitchen. I would rather be here playing on my computer. lol!

Yes, you noticed that I put myself down...well it is obvious. I am not that big I know. I just wish I wish I had the will-power to lose weight.

hugs back*

Slept a bit better last night but still feel exhausted and fuzzy-headed, plus headache... Just going to read again today, I don't have the strength for anything else.

Good luck at the OBGYN!

*hugs weakly*

Sent you a private reply on LJ. I guess that would show up on your email too. So tired.

Both in the same boat, I'm exhausted.

Private reply not showing up yet, but with my email things show up in the wrong order as often as not.

I'm reading one more fic, then going to bed. I need sleep.

Oh well maybe it doesn't show up in email like your others do. Just go to Live Journal, click on on my name, my lj and you can see it. If not I will just email it and forget the filter. I wonder why it didn't work? It has worked with all the others I have sent to? Like you say might be your email. No big deal, just wanted to try it out. We can talk private through email. :D

It has worked, your filtered message is in my inbox this morning! Like I said, emails don't always reach me in the order they're sent. It probably showed up last night, but I went to bed earlier than usual so I only just found it. Going to read and reply to it now.

It's good that we know it works, even if it takes a little longer to reach me!
