Apparently someone two years ago read some of my Deadwood fics on a podcast. I’m flattered*, but I wish they’d said something to me (I don’t think they did – I don’t recall being contacted.) Anyway, link attached so I can listen to it later.

*I mean, AFAIK there are only, like, three people who’ve written any Deadwood fic and I’m one, but it’s nice to be noticed.

That is neat, but you should definitely tell people when you do something like that with their work!

Yes, indeed, a perplexing mixture of nice BUT... People usually ask before doing that kind of thing. I suppose if you're not in fandom, it's just a thing available on the internet, but... yeah.

So if one were seeking out Deadwood fic in non-podcast form, is it on Ao3?

Yes — gaze upon my works here: https://archiveofourown.org/users/moon_custafer/works

Scroll down for the Deadwood stuff. It was the show that finally pushed me to start writing fics — Doc and Jewel weren't getting enough screen time for my liking in S2. However it’s the silly throwaway one-off with zombies that everyone seems to like.

I played in a LARP that was basically Deadwood with zombies, so this does not surprise me. Thanks!

Update — I listened to the podcast. I don’t think they’re very good at reading aloud (at least not cold) but they seemed to enjoy the stories, although they complained that they weren’t raunchy enough. As I also wrote some that had sex scenes, albeit not terribly explicit ones, I say that’s their fault for choosing the two that had zombies in them instead.
