galpalficathon. Awesome. A ficathon focusing on female friendships. There ought to be more of this stuff, and by god, beanpot and pellucid are ensuring there is. Prompting starts next week, and fics aren't due for aaaaaaages (she says, with undue optimism given the state of her two other ficathon entries). Should be excellent!

Speaking of pimping stuff, no_con_do is open for business again, for all those not going to Dragon*Con this year. I have a few ideas, namely a Pony competition (Photoshop a photo of a Pony to look like your favourite Stargate character!), discussion 'panels', pics, possibly an AIM rewatch, a fic round robin...

If anyone has any bright ideas, feel free to post and launch them, or suggest them to me if you want to brainstorm them first - it's an open comm, you don't need to be a member, and it's so laid back it's practically horizontal. And, seeing as people are headed off to Dragon*Con now, I officially declare it open! :)

Fun is to be had at no_con_do, for those of us who aren't at Dragon*Con. So far we have pics (SG-1 in chains, w00t!), meme suggestions, and a round robin fic kindly begun by aurora_novarum (featuring Teal'c and a puppy - who could resist that?).

Who wants to be at Dragon*Con when there's all this fun to be had?

Me.

So, with thanks to zats_clear for the name...

no_con_do: for everyone who can't get to Dragon*Con this year. Feel free to post whatever you want - it's basically a pinboard for anyone who's got an idea of something fun to do over that weekend. You don't need to join to post. The only rule is Play Nice. And pimping is much appreciated!

I've mentioned Stargate fans in the userinfo, but if there's interest outside of that, I don't have a problem with postings about whichever fandom.

Oh oh oh, I'm so tempted to start a one-off comm for those of us not going to Dragon*Con, so we can do fun stuff whilst everyone else is off enjoying themselves. Not a moderated comm, just a free-for-all space to commiserate.

And I so want to call it non_con. 

Heeheehee. How banned would that get me? (And I haven't checked to see if that's a comm already, because I'm at work and quite frankly I'm afraid what will appear.)

Anyone think they might be interested in such a gathering?
