My Top Ten femSlash Ships

If you are new to fandom (or this website in particular), then you might not know that AfterEllen and AfterElton are currently holding tournaments in order to determine the best femslash and slash ship in the whole of the Internets. This excites me to no end because it encompasses my two favourite things - polls and slash. I love a good argument more than anything, and the fact that we’re arguing about slash just makes it that much better.

So anyway, to show my enthusiasm and perhaps even convert some of you to the wonderful world of shipping slash I decided to compile a list (everyone loves a top 10 list). I have already posted my top ten male/male slash ships but that’s just the warm up for this one... It’s the ladies turn, that’s right I am about to tell you my all time favourite female/female femslash ships.

New Year, New Season: My hopes are ready to be crushed in the 2011/2012 season.

It's that time again, that's right all our favourite (American) TV shows are about to return to out screens after the long summer hiatus. Filming started a few months ago, so the spoilers are out there, we've started to get the promos so we have an idea about what's going to happen – or at least what the networks want us to think is going to happen. Waiting is at it's worst, because it's so close yet so far, but this is still my favourite time. All that anticipation, all that hope, this is the moment when you can dream that all those things you want to happen will finally appear on the screen.

Before all that reality ruins the fantasy that is happening in the fandom everywhere I thought I would write about what I am looking forward to. Not only is this a bit of fun, but it's educational as well, because I'm sure you're all looking to me to work out what shows are worth returning to (or catching up on) in the new season.
