Yuletide!
On the twelfth day of Christmas, my true/wonderful/awesome Yuletide authors gave to me...
Two awesome stories, one backstory for the Phouka in th War for the Oaks universe (true to Emma Bull's style - bright as a broken stained glass window, but it cuts) and a lovely, wonderful story about St Margaret of Antioch.
The Life of Saint Margaret of ( Read more... ) -

Thank you for writing for me! This is my second year in Yuletide and I had a ball last year - I'm really looking forward to seeing your story.

Thank you very much Yuletide Goat!

My Sweet, Crushed Angel

You have waltzed with great style,
My sweet, crushed angel,
To have ever neared God's heart at all.
Our Partner is notoriously difficult to follow,
And even His best musicians are not always easy
To hear.
So what if the music ( Read more... ) -

Yay!
It's hardly ever that something I write goes that smoothly. Double yay!

Dear Yuletide Goat
Dear Yuletide Goat,
Thank you very much for offering to write a story for me. This is my first time in the exchange, and I'm looking forward to it. I'm posting here, because the exchange is based on LiveJournal, but most of my actual blogging is over here.

Happy Yuletide To Be!
I've decided to participate in Yuletide this year. For those who've never heard of it, it's a fanfiction exchange focused on obscure fandoms. So, Geoffrey Chaucer's in, Harry Potter's out.
They have this scheduly matchup process thing that they go through, which I think is going to be happening this week, but in the meantime, they've opened things ( Read more... ) -
Larp: An Ecumenical Matter
A light-hearted theatre-style larp for 15 players, published by Peaky Games. It was loosely inspired by the tv series Father Ted, Nuns on the Run and similarly daft movies about religion. Set in the diocese of Peaky-in-the-Sea (consisting of Rocky Island, Stony Island and Pebbly Island), An Ecumenical Matter is an irreverent religious themed game ( Read more... )
