jennygordon is up on Heroines of Fantasy today!

She's starting a revolution, friends. Come help her. :)

Ah, my edits are done; my time is my own. I am going to attempt to keep up with Livejournal as I have not been able to in the last weeks. I know LJ gets quieter and quieter, but I said it once and I'll say it again--I'm going down with this ship. (In the hopes that it doesn't actually sink completely ( Read more... )
