Meme!

I know a lot of people on my flist have already done this, so it's possible no one will have any ideas left for me, but just in case:

If you had me under your command and could make me write anything,regardless of whether or not I know the fandom or if anybody even writes fic in that fandom and no matter how crack-addled it might be,what would you love to see me write?

I'm not actually going to write any of these (unless something strikes me), but I am curious.(Lurkers etc., please feel free to play too!)

Angel/Wes beta needed, big job!!

flaming_muse and I are looking for a beta for a long Angel/Wes story that goes AU during the episode "Home" (S4 finale.) Did we mention it's long? It's long. 115k words, give or take. The majority of it is Angel and Wesley, but because of when it's set there's also a fair amount of Connor.

Because of the length of the story, we're not looking for a super- fast turnaround -- there's no deadline for posting it. That said, we are looking for someone who is willing and able to take the job seriously and not muck around with it for months. We don't need a nit-picky looking-for-typos sort of beta (although any typos you note will be gratefully changed.) What we want is someone who can look at the story as a whole, someone who will consider the characterization, overall story line and plot points, and make specific suggestions about how to improve any of these things that might be lacking.

We want to be sure we get a beta who's the right fit because it's such a long story. If you're interested, please email at least one of us ( Email addresses behind cut )

with a little bit of info about your experience beta'ing stories of this length and a timetable of when you think you'd be able to complete the job. We know this is a big undertaking and we'll be suitably grateful to everyone who offers to help.

Thank you!

Gingerbread recipe?

Does anyone have a favorite recipe for gingerbread? The cake kind, not the cookie/house material kind.
