....brb looking up that series

[identity profile] figaro-figaro.livejournal.com 2011-03-17 09:33 pm (UTC)(link)
I have a feeling this is why the secret was made.

Excuse me while I look it up as well.

Yeah... guilty. I just want people to fangirl with but I think the fandom must have died awhile ago! I'd hoped the books getting released in hardcopy would stir up the love, but no dice.

It's possibly the best gay-BDSM-mystery-murder-well-developed-characters-etc. blah blah...

...okay, it's the best anything. If I could have gotten away with doing my thesis on this series, I'd have been all over it. But PHD's are.......... snooty.

The Administration by Manna Francis. Several books out, amazing character development, engaging characters, general awesome. Can also read almost (though not everything) on her website.

Don't be ashamed! I'm working on my MA in Lit now and I'm so discouraged by the PhD students seeming like they have ZERO interests outside of academia. It makes me feel like I can't be a dorky fangirl AND an academic. Be proud of your weird! You might inspire someone. :)

[identity profile] lady-wormtongue.livejournal.com 2011-03-17 09:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Um, that sounds like the best thing ever. Another one looking it up!

[identity profile] oflittlebrain.livejournal.com 2011-03-17 09:58 pm (UTC)(link)
I AM GOING TO THE STORE AND BUYING THAT SHIT TONIGHT

[identity profile] armistice-day.livejournal.com 2011-03-17 10:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Order here (http://www.casperianbooks.com/catalog/1-934081-08-6.html) from Casperian Books, or on Amazon!

Sorry for the butting in, just thrilled with a secret about something I love so much, I suppose! Hope this helps. :)

Another literature-loving fan of the series here to reassure you that there's absolutely no shame in enjoying these books! Intelligent, engaging plots, well-written characters, emotionally complex romance, an intriguing setting, and incredibly hot, authentic BDSM elements-- who could blame you? ♥

Yeah ... the fanfic comm [livejournal.com profile] shades0fgrey is not very active, and there are only a few pieces posted at A03. I'm hoping to post something shortly, fwiw.

For everyone saying they're going to check it out ... lucky you! There's tons of original stuff to read.

Hell, does that sound tempting.

*easily manipulated into considering book purchases by secrets*

[identity profile] jedishampoo.livejournal.com 2011-03-17 10:28 pm (UTC)(link)
I would normally think "why not just say it?" but I've seen a lot of literature PhD candidates, and they're pretty darned snooty. ;) But I think you should just tell them, anyway. What the hell, they might have heard of it, too!

I only read the first book and it wasn't my thing but hey, I know at least two people in postgraduate programs who fangirl that series.

Oh gosh, those books are nothing to be ashamed of liking - I really think that they're amazing on any number of levels, including the legit ones like character development, plot, etc etc.


Aaaaannd now I feel the need to go read them again. For those of you looking to try them for the first time, CLICK HERE (http://www.mannazone.org/zone/admin/index.html). :D :D :D

Must read this now..thank you!

[identity profile] anactoria.livejournal.com 2011-03-17 11:28 pm (UTC)(link)
There was a fandom for this? Damn, I missed out.

[identity profile] lesbido.livejournal.com 2011-03-18 12:11 am (UTC)(link)
omg what is this series and why have I never heard of it?

(Anonymous) 2011-03-18 03:33 am (UTC)(link)
The Administration by Manna Francis. Most of it is online. Has very well-developed characters, and around eight books worth of plot which goes between mystery-plots, romance and I shit you not, awkward family gatherings. It's awesome for anyone into BDSM, and hell, anyone who wants gay fiction for awesome characters, cool stories AND great sex.

[identity profile] sakurazukalori.livejournal.com 2011-03-18 04:28 am (UTC)(link)
Oh Administration Series secret ! :D I LOVE these series. I started reading them in 2003 on Manna's website - bought the books since. I re-read them quite often !

Me too! Well, I started around 2004/5ish. I've been buying every book since, totally worth it for the extra content. Administration needs some love!
