Updated "The Day Fanfic Turned Jared & Jensen Gay and Totally Ruined Their Lives Forever"

[fangirl_says]

I am, weirdly enough, still getting comments on the Jared/Jensen parody fanfic I wrote back in April. Seriously, where are all these people coming from? I mean, I know it was linked from the fandom_wank post, and that probably is the source of a lot of the post traffic, but still. I love the feedback, but WHO ARE YOU PEOPLE?!

Anyway, because it bugs me that the intentional bad grammar in the fic might be mistaken for just plain bad grammar, I went back and edited it a bit. It's got a proper header format now, too. I've decided it's fanfic in its own right and I should treat it as such. :)

Title: The Day Fanfic Turned Jared and Jensen Gay and Totally Ruined Their Lives Forever
Author: hanncoll
Rating: PG13
Pairing: Jared/Jensen
Warnings: RPS, tongue firmly in cheek.
Disclaimer: Fiction. Made it all up. None of it is true. Well, except that Jared and Jensen are indeed from Texas; that part is true. Everything else is NOT REAL.
Comments: Humor, spoof regarding wank about fanfic. It's keepaofthecheez's fault.
Summary: Jared and Jensen find out about fanfic, and tragedy ensues.

The Day Fanfic Turned Jared & Jensen Gay and Totally Ruined Their Lives Forever

Question for the flist. When I first posted the fic, someone encouraged me to post it to a fanfic comm as well. I was hesitant at the time, but man, this feedback thing is addictive. *g* Would I be ill-advised to post it to a comm at this point? Has the moment passed? Please tell me what you think; I don't want to look pathetic if that's at all avoidable.

Also, half my flist has been doing wordles, so naturally, I did one for "TDFTJ&JGaTRTLF":

I haven't read the fic yet (still at work, wanted to leave, was on my way out & was told about a meeting I really should be at). But... what is a wordle? Where can I fine one?

OH, meeting beginning. Ciao!

If you click on the small version of the pic, it'll take you to the wordle site. Then you just copy/paste whatever words you want and it gives you something like the wordle above. You can play around with colors and fonts and whatnot, too.

Happy meeting! :)

I AM SO SAD! I CAN'T GET THE WORDLES THINGIE TO WORK ON THIS COMP! I posted it anyways, to spread the love, but yeah. BOOOO.

Aw, man, no fair! *thwaps it into submission*

[pie_andcoffee]

i love this fic. it made me giggle myself silly. and thank you for the nice comment back in my inbox this afternoon from when i read it the first time!

i think it's well on its way to being a fandom standard, right up there with the song, The Ballad of Jensen and Jared.

just my 2c!

[fangirlsays.livejournal.com]

Heh, yeah, I'm trying to reply to all the comments there, but WOW am I slow at it. *facepalms*

Whee, fandom standard?! That has a nice ring to it. *beams*

I think at this point you don't even need to post it to fic comms. Maybe if you see a call for crackfic or something?

[fangirlsays.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I think you're right. And it's really not timely anymore. Good idea about watching for calls for crackfic, too. *snorgles*
