Recs comm PSA
Over on Dreamwidth, there's a fabulous little pan-fandom recs community called ![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
bestthingever, which has just expanded its policy to welcome recs for ALL types of fanworks.
The main rule of the comm is recs need to be for new works posted within the last three months; however, they're about to hold a recs fest that will span all of 2012 so far. If this is relevant to your interests, please go and enjoy!

Updates of a Not So Random Nature
There are only a few days left in the Merry Month of Turnbull, so if you happen to get the bug to write up some Turnbull for it, or make graphics or draw, you've still got a little time left! So far, we have:

And in other news, there are some new pieces for the Due South Zombie Radioplay! We're also finally back in gear on working on the Radioplay (
![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif){kind=small}
ds_zombies), so hopefully in the near future we'll be able to round out that storyline and give everyone the closure they've waited so patiently for. In the meantime, however, check out:Shattered Glass by Sossity
Body and Blood by ButterflyGhost
Stella by ButterflyGhost
Cat's Eyes by ButterflyGhost
Finally, there is one random Arch to the Sky style piece, though it's not quite as it takes place long before Turnbull comes to Nipawin. Same universe, different Mountie.
Title: Out of the Blue
Fandom: Due South; Arch to the Sky universe
Characters: Mike Chase, Cindy Mason (Chase), Sandy (cameo)
Timeline: 1988 or so
Rating: PG
Words: 3322
Notes: Well before Turnbull comes to Nipawin, there's another fairly new Mountie in town. How Mike meets his future wife.

crack_van drivers needed!
As you may know, crack_van has been a source of Due South fic recs that community's inception in 2003. Currently, thursdaynext_27 is reccing over there, and I'll be driving the Due South crack van for March. However, there's no one signed up underneath me to continue our fandom's nine year run. Please consider signing up here to take a turn at the wheel. You can check out what's been recced in the past using the Due South tag on crack_van or (perhaps more easily) by checking out the links to recs kept over at delicious.
If you're at all interested, please don't hesitate to give it a try! This is a pretty low-key thing - you just have to come up with a sentence or two explaining why Fic X rocks your socks. And reccing atcrack_van is an excellent way for newcomers to the fandom to get involved. =)

Rec of a new due South writer
I just beta-read a story for ![[archiveofourown.org profile]](https://p.dreamwidth.org/b164c54b26e4/61395-1465253/archiveofourown.org/favicon.ico)
DesireeArmfeldt, and you should go and check it out! It's got some great character observations. She has a couple of other due South stories up on AO3, too.

Crack Van!
I just finished a month of reccing due South stories on crack_van; you can find my recs here.
If you want to try your hand at reccing there, please don't hesitate! Reccing is a lot of fun, and it's also a good way for new people to find their way to the fandom. You don't have to write a long, detailed analysis of a fic when you rec it--just a few sentences about why you liked it is enough.
You can sign up to rec due South here, and if you want to check whether your favorite fics have already been recced, you can do so at Delicious (it's easiest if you sort the tags alphabetically to find the author you want to check).

Some recent fic (not by me)
Check out ![[archiveofourown.org profile]](https://p.dreamwidth.org/b164c54b26e4/61395-1457435/archiveofourown.org/favicon.ico)
Sock_Marionette's recent due South fic! There's some F/K, some K/V, and some Ray K/Stella. The author doesn't have a journal account, so I figured I'd post about it instead. I guess this is part fic announcement, part rec, although I haven't read them all yet. : )
admin: got rec sets?
Just wanted to remind everyone that recs posts are always welcome at ds_noticeboard! If you have recs of Due South or C6D works, you are absolutely invited to post or link them here at the noticeboard! YAY spreading the love!!

crack_van drivers needed and my rec roundup
crack_van is a great multifandom reccing resource, one that has generated over 700 recs for due South. There is only one more driver signed up, and then there will be no one reccing. Please consider signing up here and reccing your favorite due South stories. There is even a Delicious list of all the previous recs here so you know what's already been recced. Makes it easy peasy to figure out what to rec.My due South recs for June 2010 (everything links back to the original entry):

Screencaps
Is there a site that offers good screencaps of Fraser through all the seasons?
I know of the place that has caps of the RayK seasons, but I am hoping there is something like it for the complete series.
I want to do a scientific study - err...gratuitous post on Benton Fraser, GQ.
Thank you kindly!

due South on crack_van
There's been quite a few new faces in the fandom the last six months, so I thought I'd take a moment to point people towards crack_van which is an excellent resource for due South and other fandom recs.
Additionally, I've just updated the delicious links for due South oncrack_van to include sionnain's wonderful recs. Over 450 due South stories for your enjoyment. Check out the community, and the links!

[REC] Fic Review: Mangy Dog by Speranza
I just posted a fic review of cesperanza's due South fic Mangy Dog; you can read the review here.
The short version is: Somehow I'd never readcesperanza's Mangy Dog before. I just did now, and let me tell you: wow.
And then I comment on the fic for a long, long time. This isn't a fic I've heard discussed anywhere before, so the commentary is pretty rudimentary, but. It's a start.
If you haven't read it before (or if you have), read Mangy Dog and then come talk about it!
