The Reading Room - reminder

[constant-muse.livejournal.com]

Thanks to everyone who came along and joined me in talking about "Time Out: Past Tense" by Pamela Rose.

The fic for this week is "Velvet Underground" by Sebastian (recced by byslantedlight )

And next week (23 July-ish) it's  "Suitable Gravity" by DVS (recced by sc_fossil )
http://hatstand.slashcity.net/dvs/suitable1.html

Now is the opportunity to volunteer a fic for a few weeks hence. 
I think the Reading Room should have a summer vacation, not least because I will be away for most of August. But you don't really need me... 
Do we need a break to go away and find and read new things to rec? Any thoughts? Any recs for September?

There are one ot two stories I would like to rec. August or September - whatever you decide! (My holiday time is in October.)

But I would love it if an author would dare to throw one of her/his stories into the lion’s den! :-)

Excellent. Shall we say early September.

Re authors, that would be great, but I think they are too modest and need to be invited (hint, hint).

Roommates by Elessar
(one of my favourite stories ever)

And I think we should take a break.. It's more fun if everyone's here... :)

That sounds like a strong recommendation! When do you want to schedule it, end of July or beginning of September?

And I'm glad you vote for a holiday too. I know it is northern-hemisphere-centric of me to be thinking that way.

In september... I have A LOT of work and stuff to do now in July and August. *sigh*
Will I do review on the story like the others have done? Talk about it and then wait for you answers... and thoughts...

Yeah, well, I'm northern-hemisphere-centric too so... =P

I'm good with whatever you decide. I like reading new fic and revisiting old ones. Thanks for the opportunity.
