Straight from the Associated Press ... J.K. Rowling Completes 6th Potter Novel! Thanks to amberdiceless for the heads up! Whee! Let's see who I can call at this time of morning to share my excitement!

I feel quite accomplished tonight. I finished writing the last bit of Ch 1 of "The Wedding" - finally! - and did an initial edit/proofread so I'm just waiting a few days to re-read it and do the final edit before posting. In the meantime, I hope to finish chapters 2 and 3. I'll be happy with just Ch 2 by Christmas and 3 by New Year's. Really it ( Read more... )

I love Simon Pegg. I must say it now and forever.

I just watched Shaun of the Dead and laughed my arse off! I need to buy a DVD player that supports any region so I can watch my Spaced DVDs that are currently doing nothing but taking up space on my shelf. Fun seeing all the faces from Spaced - well, a few of them showed up. I think I might buy ( Read more... )

I got one of those bad reviews ... finally ( Read more... )

So my last (only) final is tomorrow and I haven't started studying. I'm about to head out to the coffee shop and saturate myself with caffeine and do some light studying there. I might get to a bit of writing in between, but I won't hold my breath.

My brother finally signed up for his own lj -- subwayslasher -- which thrills me because he can be the one to ( Read more... )

Oh, if it were only so! Only dust bunnies and the occasional cat under my bed....

So I'm eying "The Wedding" for the title of the new ficlet, but that's not set. I just looked back over Shiv's stringent requirements for the Vanilla fic and realized I've skipped, oh, most of them. No bickering, no passing of time with puzzles/mysteries before getting to the hawt sex. Albus is twinkly though a bit daft, and he's shagging Minerva, ( Read more... )

While out doing some Christmas shopping (finally!), we went to Best Buy, even though I despise the place, and I found a David Bowie DVD from the Reality tour! I was thrilled, especially when I saw the price was only $12.99! Just like being there for only a fraction of the cost! Yeah, I didn't believe me either ( Read more... )
