Sticky: WIP Progress
This post will not only keep me accountable ("Oh, I *was* working on that story!"), but will let any possible readers know what I have in the pipeline.
AvengersWheeee, new fandom! So far just one story, but it's part of a broader series and the bunnies are persistent. Yes, it's on the Pit for now. It'll be at AO3 once I get a damn account. It ( Read more... ) -
shiny new fandom!
Does anyone here watch Lost Girl? A friend got me into it and after one episode, I might be hooked. I feel the need to geek out about this very smart and very woman-friendly urban fantasy.
If not, it's on Netflix, and you should check it out, seriously! -
Marvel has ruined everything
"The Thomas Crown Affair" remake is on TV, and besides re-affirming a sneaking suspicion that while Pierce Brosnan may be pretty he isn't a very good actor, I now can't see Rene Russo, even as a ginger, as anything but Loki's Mom. Curse you, Kenneth Branagh! -
everything is better with taiko drums
Working on my funding proposal for next academic year while listening to the Battlestar Galactica makes me feel like a badass, instead of a grad student typing away on her laptop in a TCBY.

Strung 'Round the Moon - Persuasion - PG
So, there's a comment fic (and non comment ficathon ) going on here to celebrate female fictional characters. My comment fic, not surprisingly, was a little bit longer. I think this may spark a flurry of Persuasion fic, as it is my favorite Austen novel, and it's so wonderfully naval! Even when I should be writing and reading about all things ( Read more... ) -
Summer Writing Challenges?
So, I have a seminar paper to finish, but I'd really like to have something creative to do on breaks from that. Do any of you know of any good summer writing challenges/prompts/comms/etc. going on now or soonish? Nothing quite big bang-ish, but a little meatier than drabbles. It's been ages since I've written something that wasn't a book review ( Read more... )
