Sennacherib by [livejournal.com profile] witchofthedogs.

It is angsty and there are character deaths. It's not even John/Rodney. It was inspired by Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose by [livejournal.com profile] synecdochic, which, if you haven't read it, you SHOULD.

I actually can't believe I didn't rec that one when I read it, consider this a rec now. If you haven't read it, go read Freedom, and then read Sennacherib.

Everyone loves Freedom, so I don't feel too compelled to harp on you about that one, but apparently no one took the time to read Sennacherib, which is sad, because it is really good, and there is a serious lack of comments compared to its quality.

So, take a look. If you like it, please comment. As an insecure author, I can tell you that it's incredibly tough to put something like that out there, and I would be looking for validation, if I were her. Please give it to her.

Can I just say, thank you?

I don't really write for other people and this particular story was one that I wrote for my own edification, but I'm finding a lot of people are moved by it and that is really the biggest reward I could receive...

Thank you for your most kind words.

You're very welcome!

I'm an infrequent reccer; most of the good stuff doesn't need my piddling recs, but every once in a while I stumble on something I think other people seem to have missed, so I try to get the word out.

I like to kid myself that I write for myself (and sometimes I honestly do), but I find that feedback makes the process a lot easier, and I was sad to see such a dearth of it on your lovely story.

*laughs*

I write infrequently any more, so when I do, I really am doing it for me, just to get it out of my head.

Sennacherib was actually written in one day... and it drained all of my creativity for the rest of the month.

I don't know if I consider you lucky or not; I've never managed to flesh out a long story in a single day. I can usually map it out and write a couple thousand words, but actually getting the whole of 10,000 or more words in one day? Never happened to me.

But, in general, I keep my stories with me every day, and I would miss that, if I didn't have it.

I hope you are continuing to write, I really enjoy your writing style and look forward to further stories.
