Writing Round-Up

So, just a round-up of writing--and reading--things ^^

I had a birthday this month, and I received two lovely fics:

Firstly, Happy Birthday by thesmallhobbit, in which Mouselet and the rest of the gang manage to batter my bouquet and eat part of my cake. (You know, I spent part of my birthday looking up articles about Victorian taxidermy… *gives gang a ( Read more... )

"The Greek Decanter" was brilliant - and how lovely to have something written as a tribute to your Tea Set AU.

You'd think the gang would manage something as simple as a birthday surprise, wouldn't you?!

I'm thinking of doing smallfandombang again. Lewis, which I've written for the past three years is now too big, but I'm thinking about Call The Midwife. It's not on the current list, but I can't see why it couldn't be added.

heroinebigbang looks appealling, hmmm ...

I'd better warn you - the Heroine Big Bang rough draft for Round 4 Redux is due on 28th August.

And Lewis has finally made the leap, has it? ^^ I was always surprised that it was a small fandom - it seemed so popular. I did see your comment, btw - I'd assumed you'd just felt like a change.

If I did the smallest Heroine Big Bang it would only have to be 1,500 words, which I could do in a week, so long as I had some sort of plot - and I could change fandom if necessary up till then.

I think Lewis was almost too big last time, but just scraped in.

Small hobbit did a good job of bringing the gang together, I thought. They're more used to capers than birthday celebrations.

Thank you for your kind words. It's a wonderful AU that you've created.o

Congrats on having sold two stories. You're making your talents (and hard work) pay, and that marvelous.

Enjoyed reading your July stories. May take a peek at the Astronauts, it is a favorite Christie of mine.

Look forward to reading your upcoming works.

Look forward to reading your upcoming works. I am going to have to insist you don't read my next SFBB fic though ^__^ Honestly, reading a 50,000 word Dear Ladies/Pirates of Penzance crossover - I really wouldn't do that to you ^^

And thank you again for the birthday fic ^_^ You understood the universe so well, while still putting your own personal stamp on it. And I'm still thrilled you managed to work septic systems into the story ^__^

Thanks for the congratulations about selling my stories ^^ It's still not that much money but it's very encouraging. And do please take a look at Damon Wakes' info about his book - see what you think ^^

Neither hisietari nor I are terribly active on Tumblr, and we don't have a fandom in common any more - must admit I haven't been in contact with her recently either ^^"

Thank you for all the cheering and congratulations ^_^ And I'm glad you had a look at Okapi's teapot fic ^^

And it seems someone got tired of waiting for a taxidermy fic to appear and decided she'd better do it herself... ^___^
