Nomination post

Is there a story that you would like to discuss? Do you want to talk about some of the classics of the genre, like "Iolokus" or "Parabiosis"? Do you want to pick shorter stories, so that we can fit in more variety? Do you like casefiles? Character studies? The possibilities are endless.

Nominate your choices here, and support the nominations for other stories that interest you. Once we have a few suggestions, I'll try to draw up a schedule that suits everyone.

Hi!

Just joined... and I would like to recomend, 'Begginer's Guide to Tightrope Walking,' (http://xfiles.crossroadfic.com/recs/au_pre/beginners_guide_to_tightrope_walking.txt) by Kel, if you haven't read it here before, because it just clicks with me in very different levels (outsider POV, very funny, later seasons fic, etc).

We have not read it here before, though I recced it at [livejournal.com profile] crack_van. Welcome to [livejournal.com profile] xf_book_club, [livejournal.com profile] hlbr. I love it, too. I will put it in our queue, which is short right now.

Perfect!


And I look forward for reading with you new stuff... it's a little weird to come into the fandom so late... like entering an abandoned house, sort of... there's no one around to tell you the party is in the pool house at the back. *g*

The house isn't exactly abandoned, but I know what you mean. I am relatively new to the fandom myself-- started watching the end of 2005. Did you read the last selection and its sequel? I can give you a link to Livia's Balaban's website if you need one. Those stories are not the same without the special formating, and I think they are a love letter to the fandom. Very sweet, funny and moving.
