Some Recs, Piratey and otherwise

[dwgm]

1. thepodsquad has posted a GREAT PicSpam with commentary over at sparrabeth. I don't know how she processed the screencaps, but they are gorgeous, and her commentary is hilarious.

2. erinrua, Captain of Black Pearl Sails, built a great PotC website, Captain Erin's Fanfiction and Nautical Notes shortly after CotBP came out, and its fanfiction recs page in particular has been a great introduction and resource for many Pirates fans. Recently her old server bit the dust, so now her site is hosted on Black Pearl Tales, the archive site for Black Pearl Sails and Black Pearl Library. There is a link off the Black Pearl Tales home page, and best of all: NO ADS!!

3. I can't say enough good things about artaxastra's PotC American Revolution series. That link goes to her latest chapter, Approaching Thunder, and has links to all the previous chapters. The writing is some of the best I've encountered anywhere, and the whole scenario, which lays out a future in which Jack, Elizabeth and Will achieve both high adventure and a mostly blissful "Piratical Domesticity", hits so many buttons for me I find myself squeeing over every line. If only U.S. history had been this interesting in high school!

4. Games! Check out LineRider (thanks to schmoo999 for the link) and Catch 33, which niece gingersnapps showed me. Fun stuff, if you have a few minutes for mindless fun.

Wow, thanks so much for tooting my PoTC site's new location! :-D I didn't expect to get advertising, too. *G*

And thank you SOOOOOOOOOO much for giving it a new home. It looks so nice and centrally located there with Black Pearl Tales - and gad, I can't tell you how GLAD I am to be rid of those %&*#$@! advertisements! *shudders* Those things were evil ... Anyhow, thank you! :-D

*HUGS*
