Some really good stories

I'm not a Torchwood fan as such--I enjoyed the cracky goodness of the show but that was about it. Except, this winter, my beloved Niece started to watch the show and loved it and was frustrated by it so much that she began writing a series of fix-its that have blown me right out of the water. There are a few writers of fanfic who make me just melt, and she's one of them. I'm trying to talk her into posting them--I've been begging her to post at AO3 or in her own LJ or *somewhere*! She says when she's done the series--she's going ep by ep--she will. If you're interested at all, let me know, maybe I can use interest as a carrot. Or a flogger, either way works for me.

Ooooh!! YAY for your Niece writing TW fic. :D

First of all... is she a Jack/Ianto girl? If so, and she's fixing the fuck up that was 'Season 3', or The Season That Never Happened (for me), I'd love to read. Especially if she's putting Gwen in her place too. Gwen was TW's version of Lana. *gag* Sorry... a wee bit opiniated on that. *g*

What pairings (assuming it's not gen) is she writing about?

Ooh, definitely interested :) I too lost interest in the show after certain characters met their untimely demise, but I love the fandom. I hope your niece posts these fics!

Ooooh -- this sounds GOOD! Torchwood is an intriguing series, and your niece's stories would make for great sequels to the episodes! Not that I would ever lean too hard on a fan writer.... *looks innocent*

I'd be interested too--the show is a great foundation but does need a lot of fixing! Ianto is a challenge to write, so I'm glad to hear she's doing him justice!

You already know I'd love to see them. I hope she posts soon...no, pressure or anything - as long as she has them up as of yesterday. *g*

I totally would read a set of Torchwood fix-its that you say are good. Absolutely. I recently watched the series and would love to read some fic for it -- whose quality is vouched for by a good writer, 'cause I wouldn't have the patience to search for the good stuff in that fandom.

Hugs,
Jackie

Oh, oh I'm a carrot! I've gone off Torchwood a bit after CoE but I'm all for fix-it fics ::grin::

I love Torchwood and would be very interested in knowing where to go if you niece ever posts it
