What do you talk about in your LJ? Randomness, fandom, politics, RL, Canada. Not necessarily in that order.
Other fandoms I am very interested in: I think I've mentioned most of 'em.
Other links: Hmm. Well, some of my fic is here. My LJ is here. My Blogger is here. That ( ... )

And wow, you're reading about Inuit languages? I had this linguistics geeky period when I was younger, and read Latin and stuff. I also, um, taught myself Quenya a couple of years ago, though I've probably forgotten most of it. (Yeah, I'm sure it'd be more useful if I actually learned languages that are spoken today.)

What’s your favorite song/group/type of music?: depends on the day of the week, but most days it's likely to be Canadian. I've been listening a lot to Christine Fellows recently. Elliott Brood always cheer me up and have a new album out next week \o/
If I could live anywhere in the world, and be doing anything I wanted, and living with whomever I pleased, I would be: a freelance writer and photographer living in India with abrinsky. So far I only have the last bit sorted.

Why?: Because I love meeting new people that are more thoughtful and articulate and smarter than I am. Which is everybody, btw.
Likes: Everything! No, really - fandom-wise, I'm super easy-going when it comes to pairings and whatnot. Although, I really really love Fraser/Huey fic. Like a lot. And I can never con one personanyone into writing it ( ... )

The fandom needs that.

Uh, me I guess. *waves* I am buzzylittleb, otherwise known as little-b or buzzy.
Why? (new, want a bigger f-list, wish to promote, really incredibly bored right now, etc.)
Uh, normally I am shy and reclusive, and this has been going up lately. Okay I am, English, in my mid-twenties, a geek, and spend much of my fannish time under a rock trying to write a really big writing project.
My second really big writing project, an extension/continuation of my dsss entry last Christmas. I'll talk about that more later, hopefully, because I am obsessed.
I am otherwise known for being strange, smart, and turning up late.
Likes: (characters, pairings, genres, interests, kinks…)
I am something of a type O fangirl; I read anything if it is good. Outside my current home in due South fandom; I started writing x-men fanfiction and carried on writing *eyeroll*

I also co-mod in a very laid back manner; rpf_canada (which needs more rpf, please consider cross-posting your fic/ squee/ anything of the above) and foom_mmms (an old school community for fans of old school Marvel comics - trying to accentuate the positive, the lovable, and trying to avoid fanboy bitching - and staying pre-1987. I share with papajoemambo, my favourite Canuck and we could both do with posting some stuff and kicking it back into life)
I also use my deli.cio.us as a fangirl information/research finding thing. Anything useful is in there and some stuff that isn't useful to anyone but me. Mostly, though, useful if you need to talk about Inuit cooking, mountie dress, random rpf articles, meta...
I really should have pimped that in the above post, since it is one of those things I am very proud of. And I find it incredibly useful. It started out as an extension to my ds_recs post on research is fun (honest)

4. I have dreams of this plotbunny getting written:
Uh, the one I have at the moment? I don't have any other plot bunny urges except a couple of unexpanded concepts that I just couldn't work out the plot on. I wanted an AU treatment of the history of comics in a Ray/Ray whodunnit (it would be called funny papers and went with a manip I made) or a SGA/M*A*S*H fusion based on fifties science (and what my brother calls ray-gun-gothic, we sort of had this one semi-worked out at that point) leaning more towards the book version of M*A*S*H and it's strange disjointed digressions on the history of medicine.
5. My favorite line of a song/book/movie/fanfic/quotation:
Uh. Currently, Sentenced to Death by the Blues (from Take This Waltz - Leonard Cohen) which is a chapter title in the big project.
