In trying to get back into the swing of things on here, I felt compelled to rant about facebook, which actually is a relevant topic surrounding my hiatus. I will cut it to spare you the details if you are not interested.
( What happened while I was away and how it brought me back. )

Wow, I can't believe it has been so long since I posted on this thing! I feel so badly that people have been contacting and friending me, and I have been ignoring it! I am glad to see that many of you are still around and posting, so hopefully I can get back in the swing of things and get up to date on all that has been happening since I went on ( Read more... )

I'm here! I'm alive! I know, I've been very very bad about posting and commenting, but RL has been crazy. In addition to my full-time job, I am also now teaching intro to sociology one night a week at my university, so, as you can imagine, I've been busy ( Read more... )

Though I have a few pages of it written, I am setting the Squandered Heart sequel aside for the moment to write post-DH fic. anogete was kind enough to listen to some of my complaining about it, and has thus given me a proverbial kick in the pants to keep going.

After I post this, I will be going on internet blackout until I have sufficiently read and digested DH. I'm this strange combination of uncontrollably excited and terrified, but mostly I just can't wait to get my grubby little hands on the thing. I hope that you all enjoy, and I look forward to your thoughts when you're done with the reading ( Read more... )

I've started writing the much fabled sequel to "The Squandered Heart." I don't have much done yet, but I'm mapping it out in my head, and I think I've come up with a way to make one of the main elements, which I previously thought was maybe ridiculous, somewhat plausible. It's going well, unfortunately I can't think of a title for the damned ( Read more... )

I've taken about five of these, and amazingly I always get the same result. Imagine that. Muahahaha.

The sorting hat says that I belong in Slytherin!

Why are you reading spoilers and worrying about Deathly Hallows? You should be watching this, the best HGSS fanvid ever. And this is coming from someone who thought nothing could replace the "Don't Stand So Close to Me" vid...

So, with a week to go before judgment day, it's really sort of sunk in for me that DH is coming, and soon all the theories we've spun in fanfiction will be settled once and for all. As such, there have been more alleged spoilers about the book running around than one could even imagine. I've no doubt that many of them are absolutely ridiculous, ( Read more... )
