Why This Must Be Read: This is an enjoyable no-Stargate AU in which John is a lobster boat and whale-watching charter skipper. Rodney is a brewer and winemaker from a local vineyard family who'd left Bar Harbor in Maine for a few years after an argument with his family, but who's now returned to renovate the local pub. The usual suspects are translated into local characters - Ronon a chef, and Teyla an environmentalist, for example. There's romance, adventure at sea, and of course a happy ending - it's a lot of fun!

Last night I had a very long phone conversation with L. Now I know why I hadn't been hearing from them recently. Two very crappy things happened. They were dating somebody but broke up because this person (not somebody I knew) started treating them really badly and as if that wasn't bad enough, the person they're an in home caregiver for, who has a spinal condition so she can't really take care of herself, had this condition get a LOT worse to the point where she had to go to the hospital. Right now nobody knows for sure if she's going to have to stay in the hospital or some other care facility indefinitely so L. may need another job and place to live and may have to move really far away.
Oh, on top of that somebody dumped garbage in front of my apt door!

Hi, all! So, I've been wanting to get a better idea and feedback from other users about this topic regarding this topic ever since I started posting the challenge posts with rules and guidelines.

What can be considered old enough to be considered as period drama?

For me, anything up to the 1960s looks very old and distinct enough to establish a 'period'. The internet is divided in some ways so I thought let's take some comments and suggestions to see what we would love to see in the comm.
Don't hesitate to engage in the comments!

(I'm still awake so it's still Saturday night, right?)

All of these are fics I read in the past week and added to my fanfic database, and which I flagged for either being a favorite fic, or one I thought was exceptionally well-written. (For all fics I added this week, leave a comment and I can make a special post for you, or you can browse the regular posts linked in my master recs post.)

This week I was concentrating on fics from the Australian YA book series beginning with Tomorrow, When the War Began, as well as fics for the 2010 film by the same name. If you've never heard of either, I highly recommend them.

Enjoy! :)
