Got It by wojelah 3/5

( Could have been pure porn, but tackles some interesting issues. )

Today's 14valentines theme is arts and athletics.

I lied. I said I was going to do SPN today, but though I tried, it was impossible. It's so hard to find fics about women in SPN, and even harder to find them with female POV characters, so I'd only managed to bookmark ten possibles. I read five and got a whopping one rec, and didn't have time to go searching for more, so I just decided to do another batch of SGA instead. SGA wasn't that easy, either. I did finally manage to find seven, but I wasn't able to find anything that really excited me, and I don't really know if that's due to the fics or just that I'm getting really tired of fanfic right now and will be glad when this is over. XD Either way, after tomorrow I'm going to take a break from fic and read some of this manga sitting around!

( Good follow-up to Quarantine. )

Today's 14valentines theme is sexual assault.

Eep! Sliding in under the wire with this one. I spent a couple hours this evening frantically reading fics to try and find the last few for this set (which is why the last ones are all really short - no time to go through longer fics!).

1000 words. Jennifer felt like Audrey Hepburn in a black and white movie.
( SO CUTE. )

Last year was the first year I heard about 14valentines, and while I think it's a great idea, I was really bothered that something that's supposed to be about women was almost entirely m/m slash. That just doesn't seem right to me, so this year I decided I'd do a recs set every day for female-centric fics. I'll be reccing various fandoms, though it will probably end up being mostly Harry Potter and Stargate: Atlantis, just because that's the easiest for me to find and I did not plan well for this (next year I'll try and start squirrelling away recs in October or November). The fics will be het, f/f slash, and gen, all with female or mostly female POVs. They will also have nothing to do with the daily themes of the comm, because I'd have had to have started reading years ago to get enough that fit.

Today's 14valentines post can be found here and is on body image.

I also wanted to point out halfamoon, which I just found out about today. It's "a fourteen day multifandom challenge celebrating female characters", so pretty much just what I was trying to do myself.
