I am going to do a kind of big post right here. This is partially because I have been absolute crap at updating recently and therefore have a lot to, but also because I am procrastinating on a) NaNo, b) college essay, c) Crossover Exchange, and d) Yuletide. (I know, right, I just received my assignment and I'm already procrastinating. Even though I ( Read more... )

Right! So. Dearest of Yuletiders, I pretty much adore you, and I really love these stories, so I'll love pretty much anything you write for them.

I do want to give you some sort of suggestions as to more specific things I like, because I know that I like having some specifics, but don't feel too bound by anything I say. I like a huge range of stuff ( Read more... )

I interrupt my still-going-and-starting-to-catch-up NaNo to bring you this important news

ERASUREATHON SIGNUPS ARE LIVE

3) RPing with my most lovely Maxine Gibson and Alex Rider! SO MANY FEELINGS.

 I feel bad, I have been neglecting - um, everything?

right, so, a festividding letter.

Dear Festividder!

I love you. You are amazing. The idea of getting any vid for one of these fandoms is enough to make me jump up and down in my seat flailing joyfully. Thank you A TRILLION in advance! Below are some further thoughts in case you want them.

( seriously you're awesome for doing this. )

 in much lighter fare than I've been recently!

I'm doing NaNoWriMo again, as I do - well, every year. :P this year it is teenage superheroes and the dawn of the superhero age! I want to get to know my characters a bit better, so I'd like to do a meme thing with you guys if I can?

Three options!
1)  Give me one, two, or three characters and a prompt ( Read more... )

Betsy rambles at Tumblr about how I Am Number Four could have been a way more interesting story with some crucial changes, and then gets wrought-up in general about sexism and racism in books/movies.
