Yay!
I sent my yuletide story off to beta! Yay! There's one fandom I'd like to write a treat for, but I don't really have a story idea for it so far. I hope I'll at least be able to write a little something for Madness ( Read more... ) -
I fought cucumber tests and I lost
I wanted to work some more on the comments for translations, including writing automated cucumber tests for everything. It turned out that tests that need Javascript don't work anymore. The Javascript tests are set up with Selenium which launches a real browser, in my case Firefox. The launching part still worked, but somehow Selenium couldn't ( Read more... ) -
AO3 coding
Every once in a while I resolve to post more. So far that hasn't really worked out well, as you might have noticed. Right now, I'm thinking it might be nice to write more about my coding for the AO3. So.
The past few weeks I've been working on rewriting the HTML parser from scratch and the code is now on our test archive so that testers can bang ( Read more... ) -
Dear Yuletide Writer
OMG, you are writing in one of my tiny fandoms! For me! I love you already! Please, please, please: have fun with your assignment! I don't expect you to read my mind, and I don't want you to write something you feel unenthusiastic or even uncomfortable about. Really, every fic in my teeny tiny fandoms is a win! Yuletide is for fun and the ( Read more... ) -
Albion Resources Post
I'm going to nominate and request Albion for Yuletide again this year. Not sure how my chances are for getting a fill, but a girl can dream, right? Actually, Yuletide has already started working its magic, since while I poked the internet pondering my nominations, I found things! Not fanfic, because I doubt anyone has ever written an Albion fic, ( Read more... ) -
Various fandoms, new and old
Fannish things that got my attention lately:
Lewis: After all these years with phases of near-radio silence, I'm happy to notice that there has been quite a lot of activity going on lately. And what's more, Lewis fandom gets its first very own challenge thingy! Signups are now open!
Supernatural: After all these years of staying clear of ( Read more... ) -
Slash meeting (Querstrich-Treffen)
I went to a German slash meeting this weekend. It was fun! I rarely get to meet fanficcers in real life, so yay! Very cool to be on the same wavelength with people I hardly know (I don't even have online contact with most of them) and don't share many fandoms with. Obviously, slash is enough to make everything awesome. :D ( Read more... ) -
Yuletide Reveal
This was my first Yuletide, and where at first I was worried that I'd have to write one fic to a deadline, I ended up writing three fics! Two full-length Lewis fics (Lewis/Hathaway Gen. Yes, gen, although I totally ship these two) and a Computer Anthropomorfic treat.
A Quantum of Solace for Lalaith was my assignment. I was flailing a bit at first ( Read more... ) -
Yuletide gifts!
I've gotten the best yuletide gifts ever! EVER! *cuddles fics*
My assigned gift is a very sweet and well-written Poirot fic; besides the fact that it is a good story, it is exactly to my taste, which is just awesome! ♥ If you can get the idea of Poirot/Hastings even a little bit, you should go and read it:
