Hello. *g* I haven't been around much on this LJ -- I've actually been posting all my inane ramblings in another journal that was originally going to be for Harry Potter, but which has become my primary journal. If you're really interested in me, or listening to me whine about how my novel's progressing, or the quests ropo and I go on, or how much I ( Read more... )

Will be mailing letters out soon, so this is your last chance to join the coolest, riskiest book club ever! ;-) Though really, the risk is minimal: all you're doing is mailing an old book you already have, that you've enjoyed, to someone else. (And in the case of the letter I send you, you'll be mailing it to my bestest friend, so really, how can ( Read more... )

Calling all book freaks:

narida has sent me a chain letter! And I don't hate her for it! *g* Mostly because this one sounds really, really cool. There's no penalty if you don't do what it says, no "you will never find love" caveats. But I still feel wary about sending out an unsolicited chain letter, so here I am, asking for your permission. You've ( Read more... )

sarea_okelani has made a very interesting post about slash. I admit I share much of her confusion, as well as her fascination with discussing. All those who slash and slash alike -- come and educate! Inform! There's nothing hostile intended, we're just debaters at heart. *g*

There was a S5 AtS speculation thread posted at the Babble Board (why can't I stay away? Why?), but I've been chatting with Jen, so of course I have more wants than I said at the time.

( S5 wishlist )

Was inspired by the finales of BtVS and AtS (well, more AtS than BtVS, but beggars can't be choosers) and applied it to the following. Angel POV (because I loves me some Angel), and beware, thar be spoilers here (though only if you're living under a rock or haven't seen the finales.)

( Paved, 1/1 )

I'll start by saying I lurve Spike no matter how boring they try to make me think he is and that I hope for good things on AtS next year. I am neither enraged nor betrayed by anything I saw in Chosen and I look forward to the future.

However.

The Spike bashing is kind of amusing (as is the unbearable whining from some people about poor wittle ( Read more... )

I have finished BL: Book II. It is done. Complete. Finis.

Final Word Length: 61 pages, 10 pt. Verdana, 6" margins.

Final text length: 156K.

This is the best day.

It's off to the betas. I . . .

I have no words. Go on about your business. I'm drained and desperately hoping it doesn't suck ass. Also going to sleep so that I can wake up and read ( Read more... )

Was reading kita0610's LJ and am stunned utterly speechless (well, maybe not speechless) that there are apparently people in this world who disliked Orpheus. I do not understand. I could not understand less if I tried, and to avoid making my head hurt, I am now going to compose the World's Worst Poem. ( Ode to Orpheus )
