Hello Yuletide 2012 Author! My letter is here.

Here are links to my full-length fic. I'm on AO3, and I've also got an archive offsite, but this will always be updated first.

My work is always, always available for transformation by other fans. That is seriously the highest compliment, and the thought of podfics or art or anything bowls me over, ( Read more... )

I thought today would involve one more trip to some far corner of another borough, but luck intervened and I get to stay home and re-center myself. The past few days have been MADNESS, of the best kind. Friday I went to Manhattan for therapy, and had a good session (I think my therapist finally gets something I've been trying to show her all along ( Read more... )

It's so very, very bleh outside, and I have to go out in it eventually, but not yet! Not yet. Which means after an unwanted hiatus (I have to get better about managing "freelance" tasks when I have guests), I finally can share my latest Things I'm Verbing.

I kind of wanted the next bread I attempted to be this skillet rosemary garlic loaf that

I'M SO THRILLED THAT MY FAVE WON!!!! ( Spoilers! Also I kind of want the fic?!!?? )

There is a deafening all-day Orthodox Jewish rave happening on my residential street today. Happy Purim; I'm in hell. I'm also wondering if I can just call in a noise complaint, because I am super petty when it comes to thundering techno and devotional music taking over the entire several-block radius.Meanwhile, I have used up the dough and made ( Read more... )

I have this easily digestible list of things I want to get done today, but now that I look at it, none of it looks very fun. (It's stuff like breaking down paid freelance work, novels and other projects in 25-minute chunks, or organizing piles of random ephemera I've carried through at least three moves, or figuring out how to use up some ( Read more... )
