There are also comms for all the obvious big-name (and small-name) fandoms -- just on my network page, I'm seeing lots of love for Merlin, Sherlock Holmes (in all its variations), Doctor Who, Trek (in all its variations), Supernatural, Avatar: The Last Airbender, etc. etc. etc.
I'm not even going to try listing them because I'm too lazy; the interests search is the best place to start looking.
But for stuff that's not fandom-specific, I'll throw in a plug for:
eid_ka_chand and daysofawesome -- fic about Muslim and Jewish characters respectively (with a bonus crossover challenge!) age_of_sail -- Temeraire, Hornblower, Master and Commander, Austen, Sharpe, etc. access_fandom -- disability in canon and fandom. dark_agenda -- encouraging writing characters of colour in fic. codswallopers -- hitting fictional characters with fish. rarelitfic -- just what it says on the tin. asexual_fandom -- for people in fandom who identify as asexual; includes lots of discussion about characters who are canonically asexual or can be read that way.
But yeah. The irony is that DW can look so fannish that in March, people started a Giant Non-Fandom Friending Meme to try to change the impression some people were getting that DW was "yet another clubhouse for the cool fandom kids."
