Oh man, that would be so good! That's what really frustrates me with a lot of her stories. So much unrealised potential.

ayrt

The college flashbacks ending partway through was so frustrating! I don't know if she didn't want to do the research or what, but it messed with the pacing a lot.

She wasn't doing any research in the first place *grumbles*

I mean, absolutely true. I honestly can't remember if she even mentioned the Beanpot.

Pretty sure she didn't.

I don't get how you set something at BU and not.

Re: Fic Discussions - YCMAL

From: (Anonymous)
Because she didn't want to write BU, she wanted to write A Hockey School, and New England is the closest to her geographical comfort zone, and can't do BC because of British Columbia, so BU! And, hey, isn't Boston where Italians are? Time to make another botched attempt at ethnic diversity!

At that point just make up a school, lmao. Now I'm remembering how she fucked up writing a Jewish character too.

One day there'll be good college hockey fic in the tag, I hope.

Are you talking about either Gabe or Stephen? (I forgot which one, lol.) That was so tagged on. Did she even mention it in the initial story?

Re: Fic Discussions - YCMAL

From: (Anonymous)
Gabe is supposed to be Jewish. There's an ask somewhere on the blog about holidays where she does things like not mention Passover.

I'm not into college hockey, but gdgbaby seems to write a lot of Boston-based college hockey stuff. Have you tried her?

Hm, I'll check again? I remember a lot of it seemed very niche.
