One Hell of a Fanfic Podcast

You're home for Star Wars fanfiction recommendations!

[onehellofafanfic]

Star Wars. Fanfiction. Book Club. Podcast.

Need I say more?? (Well I'm going to lol)

Hi! We're Steph and Lauren and we've been bringing everyone a new SW fanfic recommendation monthly Since Dec 2022!

Check out what we are reading each month and listen in as we breakdown our thoughts about the cannon relationship, ships, spice level, plot, characters, writing and more.

You can find us on most podcatchers (Spotify, Apple Podcasts, etc) but if you'd prefer to watch Lauren and I, you can also find the recordings on YouTube (and possibly see our unofficial co-hosts Rocky and Beans 😺).

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on the fics too!

Never too Late by @space-blue was a artfully written fixit fanfic exploring what would happen if Obi-Wan called Dooku after Qui-Gon's death and the events that unfolded afterwards. This one is definitely worth the read!

Obi-Wan time travels in this short fanfic called A New Adventure by carryonmywaywardsonofabitch.

"eXeCuTe oRdEr SiXty-sIX" This beautifully sums up the complete vibe of this fic that Lauren and Steph read called The Chips Didn't Work by @peppermint-shamrock. Read this shitpost turned fanfic and follow along while they break down the fanfiction book club style!

Take the Clone Wars era... AND MAKE IT SPICY. But not too spicy. Like eating a delightful taco and finding a random jalapeño seed in it that gives you a little zip of heat but then goes back to being warm and delicious. Listen in as Lauren and Steph talk about Standards of Professionality by @trixree, book club style!

Hi there! I wanted to reach out and say thank you for jumping in and writing Sticky fingers all those years ago. It was a joy to read and then cover in our podcast episode that comes out tomorrow. If you're interested, you can find it as episode 17 that comes out 4/1/24. Our podcast name is One Hell of a Fanfic!

Thank you, this was very flattering! I'm not used to hearing people talk about my fics like this, and I couldn't stop grinning while I listened.

(The fic, and the podcast)

I feel like an important note for you guys regarding one point (about 27min in) is that Palpatine being involved in Shmi's abduction is from an early draft of the script of AotC. It's not canon canon, but it was definitely part of the plot in at least one iteration. I believe that at the time I wrote it, I was under the impression that it was a deleted scene, rather than a scrapped one.

The other thing of note is that the "Sidious helped cause Anakin" thing is similarly ambiguous canon; he and Plagueis did some Dark Ritual about the time that Anakin would have been conceived. Whether that directly caused Anakin or, as I believe was recently asserted, the Force created Anakin as a Light side backlash to the Dark Ritual... less clear.

Also, the whispering in particular wasn't really a germ thing; moist air on the ear is just a HORRIBLE sensation imo. The rest... projection. Ya girl's had OCD since high school and really overthinks germs.

Anyway, if you want recommendations for QuinObi fics, or fics where psychometry plays more of a role, I can dig through my bookmarks. It's definitely one of my preferred ships 😅

Honestly, knowing that we've helped make a writer's day makes all the effort of doing a podcast worth it! <3
