Hello! I reached an AO3 goal, so prepare for a rambling personal post.
I broke 2.5 million words!
First of all, thank you to everyone who reads and supports my work. Without you, I could never have made it this far.
And more than anything, I want to thank Bill and Conan. Those tall, blue-eyed, assless dorks get me through the days and I am endlessly grateful for their infinite inspiration.
After 366 stories, ~200 of which are requests, I have slightly more confidence in my writing. But it's still hard. Combatting all the voices that tell me I'm not good enough and should just give up is a constant struggle. But because of my friends and my amazing partner @martymcdie88mph, I keep going. I know my fics aren't everyone's cup of tea, but writing about Bill and Conan makes my life worth living. And I'm blessed to have a handful of wonderful people who boost me with their encouragement and praise. Thank you all🧡
So, here's to the next half million. Who knows how long it will take, but I plan to have fun along the way!
Edit: muted this monstrosity but if you're looking for the blank template it's on my blog and I'll tag this and it with "the stupid fucking shorts post" so you don't have to scroll through everything 💀😂 (I did not make the template btw, I don't know who the OP is but if you do please let me know)
Another relic from the olden days when Stargate SG-1 was airing live, that the youths may not know about. When Conan O'Brien had his original show, he had a segment called Pierre Bernard's Recliner of Rage, where a very soft-spoken man ranted about nerdy stuff. One time he did an entire bit about Daniel Jackson leaving SG-1. At the end of the bit, Conan said, "I think there are maybe six people out there who know exactly what you're talking about."
One of those six people actually worked for the show, or was somehow connected to it, and they got in touch with Conan. They loved the bit, and invited Pierre to come out and film a cameo. He's the technician (Sergeant O'Brien) at the end of Zero Hour, and they did a follow-up bit following him when he went to Vancouver to film it.
