suelac for suggesting that Life During Wartime was WIP, but also a chance to pimp it for those few people out there who haven't read it. You've got all sorts of fabulous XF authors (well, fabulous authors in general. Except for cofax, I don't know that the others have written in other fandoms) writing self-contained, linked post-col. stories.
The whole series is fantastic, but the last chapter, Fimbulwinter, is really stunning (and leaves me wanting more, more, more which is how I ended up lumping it in with the typical WIP, which it's not. Anyway, for anyone who hasn't read it, go now and do so, and e-mail the very talented authors. These are the Mulder and Scully and Lone Gun Men that I fell in love with, and I'm far happier reading this series than I was watching the last two seasons. And now I'm tempted to go read it all over again.
However, that being said. Fire Sale really is a WIP (or was) and I do truly wish thathaphazardmethod and Barbara D. would finish it:) Because it's sooo good.
In that same vein, what are some of your other favorite WIP's that remain unfinished, for curiousity's sake? I'm trying to think of others. There's another X-Files one that I think may even be in the novel archive that was profiley and angsty and gory, and damn, now I'm gonna have to go find it.

Kipler's as good as she ever was. I tend to believe "Stranger and the Strange Dead" may be the best story ever posted in the fandom. Certainly top 5.
