I woke up just as reveals were being announced. Great timing! 8)

I have to thank bjewelled for the awesome Assassin's Creed fic she wrote me. ♥

This year, I wrote:

• Lineaments (Mass Effect, Shepard & Wrex, T) for wickedtrue - probably one of the better fics I have written because of its subtlety and gen and love for aliens who don't get enough love. Writing this fic ( Read more... )

Happy New Year / Gelukkig Nieuw Jaar / 明けましておめでとう
I was going to post a really long, introspective entry about the ups and downs of the year 2009 on my personal site, but the blog script is b0rked and I can't be bothered to debug it. I considered writing up the entry anyway, and posting it when I get the site fixed, but then I realized, maybe this ( Read more... )

I don't usually do yuletide recs because I don't expect anyone else to particularly care about my opinions. However, as I was going through the archive looking for things to read, I noticed that yes, surprisingly, there are a lot of stories that are even more neglected than my own.

Merry Christmas / Prettig Kerstfeest / Frohe Weihnachten

So my mom came up with the idea to see Avatar today, and we decided to go to the first showing of the day at the IMAX theater, which started at noon. We got there 45+ minutes in advance, got tickets no problem, got to the theater and the doors were already open so I went inside and found good seats 2 rows from the back right in the middle and ( Read more... )

Sometimes I do wish there was a separate yuletide for animanga/games/Asian dramas etc.

I like the idea of writing treats/stocking stuffers, and now that I have the time I've been going through the entire Dear Yuletide Writer post trying to find a prompt that catches my interest, but about 80% of yuletide is books I haven't read and TV shows that I don't watch ( Read more... )

OVER NINE THOUSAND!!! (words)

In other words, yuletide is done, and the final word count is over 9,000.

Apologies for being MIA. Writing this fic has taken up pretty much my entire week. Will catch up tomorrow.

Pretty much everyone on my f-list has done this, so what the hell. Yay bandwagons!

You know how sometimes people on your friendslist post about stuff going on in their life, and all of a sudden you think "Wait a minute? Since when were they working THERE? Since when were they dating HIM/HER? Since when???" And then you wonder how you could have ( Read more... )
