LindseyFic was a Yahoo group. It grew quickly in its first months after being formed at the end of 2000. Its peak month for messages was February 2004 with 238, likely due to news being released about the impending cancellation of the series. New fiction continued being posted through 2011, but from 2009 onwards the main posts being made were recurring updates from the makebelieve archive, a multifandom site sending out a new additions digest.

Although the LindseyFic was founded for fic posts, many of the posts involved conversation about the Angel series, the actor Christian Kane, or discussions about fanfiction.

The list changed owners several times, the final owner being peja who was also active on Dreamwidth until 2013.

As of 2019, it had 311 members. The group had a connected website http://www.geocities.com/lindseyfic/ on Geocities, unfortunately not archived.

Description

"Every day you sit behind your desk and you, you learn a little more to accept the world the way it is. Well, here's the rub: heroes don't do that. Heroes don't accept the world the way it is."

The place for the best in Lindsey McDonald Fan fiction. Any fiction is accepted. Het, slash, 'ship (ANY 'ship is welcomed), general, silly, crossover, angst, drama, action, anything as long as it's got a whole lot of Lindsey. Because Angel is ending, we also allow discussion about Lindsey, his role on Angel, Christian Kane, and Christian's roles in Rescue 77, Love Song, Crossfire Fire, Life or Something like it, The Crooked E, Just Married, Secondhand Lions, Taxi and Keeping Your Distance. Join today!

All fiction is welcomed! Adult/Slash should be marked. If you don't like Adult stuff, don't read it.

Fluff and OT are okay as long as it doesn't go overboard, please mark if possible.

Please no discussion of Christian's personal and private life.

Spoilers and Spec should be marked in the subject. Please give spoiler space until a week after the episode airs. For the benefit of people who live in countries where the current season of Angel hasn't aired yet, please write spoiler in the subject line for any episodes of the current season.

Whoo hoo. I'm no longer alone! Whee!

I started this list cause some of the many lists I'm on are getting crazy with rules and such. I understand the need for order, but having to remember the rules for each list is getting very confusing.

Welcome welcome, oh great writer of fic....

Has anyone else here ever wondered exactly how voluntary Lindsey's employment with Wolfram and Hart was? We've seen how they got Angel on board. Don't ask me to believe they haven't gotten other people on board as well. And I have no doubt that, should Angel have left before Origins, they'd have sent Conner right back to how he was at the endof season 4 or worse. Anybody else think that they held more over Lindsey's head than just "we'll kill you if you don't cooperate"?
