Hello, friends. As you might have gathered, I'm no longer using Livejournal. As happens with the internet, I've found other outlets for my creativity and/or angst, but I still have a deep and abiding fondness for ye olde LJ ( Read more... ) -
The Will, the Emma, and the Baker's Dozen Assorted Nerds: A Cautionary Tale
It's been a long time, Livejournal. I'm not entirely certain I'm even on any friends lists anymore, but seeing as how tonight might never have happened if it weren't for Livejournal, I thought it an appropriate place to spill my tale ( Read more... ) -
Mixed Martial Snogging
A few months ago, one of my freelance clients asked me to cover a mixed martial arts fight. I politely declined; it was the first time I haven't taken an assignment offered to me.
