Where I am
Quick roundup of my presence on the internets, in part explaining why I'm not posting here very often.

(Untitled)
So I'm punting Yuletide this year. It does seriously pain me to do so, because I've enjoyed it so much each time, but there are only so many hours in a week, and somehow I've maneuvered myself into a position where December is going to be an absolutely fucking insane month, writing-wise ( Read more... ) -
I've written a thing.
So it seems that I've gotten myself a new writing gig at Tor.com's blog, and my first post went up this morning. It's a writeup of Gallifrey One 2011, and all in all I'm pretty pleased with it.

Currently that other self is preparing a conference paper tentatively called "Anthony Bourdain and Models of ( Read more... ) -
One single thought about the Doctor Who finale
I might post a lengthier piece later expressing a lot of no-doubt-unpopular (but postively inclined!) opinions about this season of Who, but for now, just one. Spoilers follow.
