Rec: Look At Your Renegade Time Lord

[x-losfic.livejournal.com]

Hello all! I bogarted the last reccing period using my phenomenal modly powers (actually my living space is pretty reasonable, thanks for asking). Please direct all crying/cursing the unfairness of the dark cabal that is b_e to fandomsecrets (I did just pm the mod and sign up like a pleb, but the drama will keep us young).

Within the next days I'm going to be talking about GOOD SEX (in fanfic, not like Cosmo magazine) (though a beta did once tell me some sex I'd written was 'straight out of Cosmo' (She did not mean that in a positive sense (I am not sure there IS any positive sense that could be taken in, come to think))).

It would help me out if, in the comments, you could tell me what makes sex writing work for you, in D/M fic, fic in general, and literature/art more broadly. I'll talk a bit about stories that work for me where sex is used well to advance the plot, emotionally or mechanically, and sex-writing that's generally a gut-punch of *guh*, but this is a pretty subjective question, and it might be very interesting to see how others look at it!

In the meantime, I give you a less-salacious rec of brand new, off-lj content. For full disclosure, it's somewhat related to a coming-soon Shalka (and somewhat D/M) project I show'run, which you may have seen pimped about by my cohorts. I had nothing to do with the making of this thing, however, which is pretty entirely distinct from the project as a whole. ...or is it?!?!?!? No, no it is. ... OR-- sorry, go on.
