Something wrong with the universe
One of my best friends is dead.
Just...like that. She apparently suffered a brain haemohrage yesterday evening, and she was declared clinically braindead thisafternoon. They're going to pull the plug tomorrow morning, and she's going to be an organ donor. It's what she would have wanted.
I don't even know why I'm posting this. I spent most of ( Read more... ) -

Wow, I almost feel like a BNF! Within about three days I got two requests for translations of my fic - A Terrible Fate can now be read in Polish, and there's a Spanish translation of Naming Pig in the works. I've also been nominated at Quill to Parchment (which you can find here) for my fic That Within Which Passeth Show (not all that ( Read more... ) -
Joy
I've finished the second chapter of my thesis!
Not finished properly, not finished as in forever, but finished in the for now sense.
This has been hanging over my head for about two weeks now, and it's a relief to have it over and done with. Of course tomorrow I have to get up early and go to rehersals, and then get back to work on the third draft ( Read more... ) -

I feel bound to inform anyone who's awaiting any update on any of my fics that it will probably be at least a week till I get anything posted. And there has been much wailing and weeping and gnashing of teeth on my part about that sad little fact.
I'm having to use the college computers to get any work done, and they're ( Read more... ) -

Oh dear.
My laptop is trying to kill me. Or send me into a frustration induced coma. Possibly both. I've said for a long time that my computer was my abusive lover, and today has just proved it to be true.
On the plus side, I've started working on a new play this weekend, and it's gone rather well (the old one, which I do have to finish, was ( Read more... ) -
Freedom
I'm free! I'm free! I'm free, free, free as a bird. The evil essay of doom is complete, and I am able to eat cheese again. Plus, I saw this picture at Mugglenet, and, well, wow:

Whining
I'm going to scream and scream and scream.
I'm home for the holidays. I'm supposed to be meeting up with friends and getting drunk and reading new and non-academic books(!) and writing chapters of Left Behind and The Best Ship, plus, you know, by goddamn, no good, slowly sucking my soul out through my left earlobe (which stings a lot more than you' ( Read more... ) -
Fic: Tips for the Hero's Own True Love
Title: Tips for the Hero's Own True Love
Summary: Ginny Weasley takes some friendly advice on how to be a hero's one true love.
Genre: Comedy/Parody

Equus
Now what we all want - hardcore nudity! (Cookies for whoever recognises the quotation)
Equus by Peter Shaffer
Gielgud Theatre
So, Equus is a slightly strange play. The depiction of violence and the implied bestiality are as up-front and blatant as anything in recent theatre, and the treatment of an 'insane' psyche is certainly a rather modern ( Read more... )
