*flaily-jumpy-twirling*

Z! How very, very excited am I? WITHOUT TEXTUAL RENDERING (or, y'know, even the regular plaster kind of wall rendering. My EEE of triumph at the sign ups made well have done structural damage to my house, I'm just sayin')

1. How long have you been in the DS6D fandom?
Oh, cripes. Well, I lurked like an extremely accomplished lurking thing from the beginning of 2005, but didn't actually pop my writing cherry until the summer of 2006, when I jumped feet first into getfraserlaid. Low pressure writing. I've... heard of that.

2. What's one thing you really like about your own writing?
What catwalksalone said, omg. Um, although I guess I sort of like my use of language sometimes. And the odd POVs I seem to find (Turtles are entirely valid narrators, I'll have you know).

3. Please give us a link to your stories?
They're floating around in assorted places (and I keep on finding myself when I accidentally end up on del.ici.ous because of something else and it's really kind of weird to me), but the pretty-much-complete list of my dS ( ... )

Because reality doesn't let turtles or wolves narrate

That's an absolute tragedy, they have such insight. Darn reality.

I know! It's deeply unfair of it to be like that.

1. How long have you been in the DS6D fandom?
Coming up on two years this August. At least, that's when I got an LJ and started writing, though I lurked for a little while before that.

2. What's one thing you really like about your own writing?
It makes me feel good. All shiny and proud and "I made this!"

3. Please give us a link to your stories?
Here.

4. Why did you choose Team Whimsy?
It was tough! I like reality okay, too. But whimsy is fun and I like fun in the summertime.

5. Please rec us one of your favorite "whimsical" stories?
Um... Gun, with Occasional Kangaroo: A Love Story. Go, go kangaroo!
Girls, Girls, Girls. Go, go penis!
Woman Like a Man. Go, go, me to bunk!
How to Speak Canine in Seven Easy Steps. Go, go Awesome Teammate!
(These are all F/K.)

6. What's one fun/goofy/random thing you'd like us all to know about you?
I am never fun/goofy/random.

7. And the burning question: how magical are our boys, REALLY?
They're okay, I guess.

Yes, you are never fun, goofy or random. Your seriousness is legendary and also terrifying.

As queen of the internet, I think you need to maintain a serious demeanour at all times and under all conditions.

OK, firstly, we're clearly going to win. Secondly, yey! Thirdly, darn you, HTML. Fourthly, no, really. (How much do I suck? <----------> this much.)

1. How long have you been in the DS6D fandom? A few years as a lurker, then maybe one and a half/two as a writer.

2. What's one thing you really like about your own writing? Can I play the Brit card too? (Tea, anyone?) Uh... I like some of the words I use?

3. Please give us a link to your stories? One snippet here, another here, and my backup fic for the last match here.

4. Why did you choose Team Whimsy? Because our show and our boys are just so damn whimsical! I mean, sure, realism is OK, but one of the (many) awesome things that just keeps me coming back to dS is the use of magical realism - dead!Bob, Turnbull (c'mon, he's hardly normal...) hypnosis, men turning into ravens, lip reading half-wolves and superhero Mounties. I love it. How could I not?!

5. Please rec us one of your favo(u)rite "whimsical" stories? I'm gonna need to get back to you guys on that one. I like everything ( ... )

1. How long have you been in the DS6D fandom? Since February of last year, when I saw the Goody Two Shoes songvid, and said I must get into this fandom!

2. What's one thing you really like about your own writing? Um ... voice?

3. Please give us a link to your stories? Index here. Most DS/6D stories part of last year's Match!

4. Why did you choose Team Whimsy? Whimsy is my middle name: Green "Whimsy" Grrl. :-D

5. Please rec us one of your favorite "whimsical" stories? Well, there's caersmanes fabulous Match fic from last year!

6. What's one fun/goofy/random thing you'd like us all to know about you? I am a deeply silly person.

7. And the burning question: how magical are our boys, REALLY? With ghosts, talking animals, UFOs, psychics, voodoo priests, and surviving wildly bizarre feats of death defiance?

SO MAGICAL!

I am ... um ... more than 30 and I can do the hands flat on the floor thing, too. Is that weird? I'm just used to being that way.

etcetera_cat July 10 2008, 19:58:49 UTC
I'm under 30 and I can do it generally only after a large dog has clotheslined me in the prep room!

... *rereads* Why does everything I write today make my job sound like one in the PORN INDUSTRY? *cries*
