Another great new story from DeepFriedCake, The O Henry Affair. A holiday gift in and of itself, and fitting into the Christmas story round up in a particular way. Check it out and consider leaving her the gift of a review -- 10 has become the new bar of successful engagement with the fandom, at least in my mind!

Let's do a round up of favorite GG Christmas stories! I'm looking forward to some nostalgic holiday reading. My all-time Christmas fave is Mag's Twelve Days. I read it at least twice every December, and have to physically restrain myself from reading it at other times of the year as well. It may well be my favorite of all her stories -- is that blasphemous? It's so perfectly constructed and paced. I just love it. The other one that springs right to mind is DeepFriedCake's The Lorelais' First Christmas in Star-Crossed , a holiday gem of a prequel to Star-Crossed, Colorado. It perfectly captures the fragility of Lorelai's and Rory's flight and the beautiful sanctuary of the small town where they land in this version of Gilmore Girls. Love her version of a younger baby-bonding Luke. I'll be back with more as they come back to me, but in the meantime invite you all to chime in with your own faves!

So DeepFriedCake and I simultaneously posted Rory-centric stories today at ff.net. Hers is amazing -- no shock there -- full of moving, funny dialogue, and such a great restoration of the Rory order. Go check it out: Rory Saves Herself. Consider leaving a review, then come back here and say hello!

I'm glad to hear that Junie! And that you're actively seeking inspiration, would love to see a new story from you. :-) I have not taken the leap to listen to SP's podcast. I'm always nervous that he will end up with egg on his face ... so I'm glad to hear you're finding it fun. And, very ironic about the Jess spin off...

:::waves hello::: It's been so long I didn't even know what DFC was talking about when she said she posted to Primetimer! Lovely to see some familiar names here, how've you been, Junie?

Junienmomo wrote this back in July but it's still true. Awesome LL stories from Savvy, both the ongoing epics plus the shorter ones.

Interesting questions/speculation. Since a major, though not only, motivation for fan fic writing is to "fix" what one sees as wrong, my feeling is that we'll see more Luke and Lorelai fics. There are many of us out here who saw A LOT wrong with how Luke and Lorelai were written in the revival. And even if one was happy with their story in the revival, there's certainly plenty of room for various other motivations for stories -- what we didn't see, what was being thought, etc ... So as a (mostly) LL reader and writer, I'm hopeful!

I read on my phone all the time .. which is probably not a good thing ... but all you have to do is log on to fan fiction.net (or Archive of Our Own) and start searching.

DeepFriedCake is on a roll! She added Chapter 8 to A Wedding in the Hollow.

DFC posted Chapter 7 of A Wedding in the Hollow and it's awesome!

Deepfriedcake came back to us! With chapter six of A Wedding in the Hollow! It's full of the funny, and the lovely, and a teeny bit of angst... plus, a cliffhanger!

I have a new one that I stole from a Gilmore Guys podcast, but I'll answer this one from last fall, even though we know a lot more about the actual revival than we did back then (though I am trying to avoid spoilers as much as possible....) Rory with ... a new guy after several years of focus on career. L and L together, though I fear how this is actually going to play out in the revival... I have no trust, given the implosion of their characters and relationship in season 6, when last we had the Palladinos in charge... New Choice, posed by the Gilmore Guys podcast ep on The Real Paul Anka: Would you rather be stuck in a lifeboat for two weeks with Logan's Life and Death Brigade mates, or with Jess' Truncheon mates?

I was listening to the Gilmore Guys podcast ep of Just Like Gwen and Gavin the other day and they pointed out an error I had never noticed before, and don't remember seeing here (though of course I could have missed it). In Lorelai's rant to Logan.... ....they were laughing over the poor math skills of the writers, in having her say five months, three weeks, and sixteen days when it should have been six months, one week and two days.

Hey, fictionlover, do you know about filters? M rated stories don't show up in the general feed, you need to change the filters (scroll down to bottom of GG story page) to M to see them. If it's not that I'm not sure why else it's not showing up.... but ff can be mysterious!
