This post contains my thoughts about the "Tarzan" musical I saw for the second time yesterday and then some general thoughts on musicals in general. If you'd rather read about my exciting adventures at the stage door after the musical was over, go to this post (f-locked because of A PHOTO! You know what I'm talking about... :-D).

( Have my (maybe not that coherent) thoughts and some pictures behind the cut. )

So, yesterday was the deadline for the PodCastle Flash Fiction Contest and I managed to submit my two stories in time! :-) (Everyone could enter two fantasy stories of 500 words.) Many, many thanks again to goldvermilion87 for beta reading ( Read more... )

Okay, what am I talking about? PodCastle is a podcast which runs fantasy short stories. Occasionally they host flash fiction ( Read more... )

To fill my blog with some kind of content (since I've been much too quiet recently - blame work and tumblr), have a list of awesome new books I got for my birthday:
