I love ffr. And AO3 fans.
On Tolkien: But is [JRR Tolkien's written works] a massive fandom? I'm not saying the book isn't popular, of course it is, but there aren't that many fics on AO3
OP is simultaneously saying she read The Hobbit 15 years ago and hated it and that she's been traumatised by spoilers in a fanfic, and that she never would have expected that ending.

Writing apps for iPad - suggestions?
Can anyone suggest any good fiction writing apps for iPad? I downloaded Writer's App today for the times when Ponyo kicks me awake (at 3.30-ish every night, like clockwork) and I have an hour or two of bright wakefulness, so that I can jot down plot bunnies and notes better than in the Note application I generally use. It's a barebones but helpful ( Read more... ) -

Lost fic
Urgh. Boring as i find the process of archiving, I have to keep transferring some of my older fic, that I want to keep, onto Archive of Our Own.
I went looking for Versatility, one of my favourite things I'd ever written (Jem, Roxy/Jetta) for reasons, and it's gone from ff.net and the other archives I'd hosted in on seem to be gone completely. I ( Read more... ) -
My Christmas dolly :)
Christmas doll post! And as usual, I didn't buy remotely what I planned to. :) But for once, it was a doll that's been on my wishlist for ages. And OMG bargain. If she hadn't been such a bargain, I would have put off ordering until we moved house.

Yuletide - predictable.
All right, so I am actually too lazy to do a recs post. But I have been spreading comments and kudos around to sweeten it. :D This is the only time of year I actually read fanfic, because I'm not in any large fandoms right now, and I'm really enjoying it. -
Holiday dolls!
I have NOT bought these. I think I deserve a medal. Really, I think, though, it's a sign of being happy in my life: I can go "I like very much" and not "I need to buy".

Sometimes being pregnant is fun
Just got back from waterbirth class. It was really really good, and very reassuring about my chances of actually having one despite my arm-long list of medical issues, but also hilarious because of the other parents attending ( Read more... )
