Overall thoughtsStill missing from this roundup because it was written in 2012 but will be up in 2013: my second go-round with X-Men Big Bang. I swear, there is something just so powerful about the idea of "Write at least 15k words about something, here are your ( Read more... )

Overall thoughtsTransition again from one fandom to another - from Inception to X-Men: First Class. Seriously, it was very, very difficult not to start writing for these rebooted versions of Charles and Erik. It was certainly helpful that they were being played by such amazing actors. Oh McFassy how I love you both ( Read more... )

Following the meme that's been going around: here's what's in the monster of a backpack I normally carry around with me. It's big because it also doubles as my netbook bag, so I fill up the spaces with peripherals and power cords and stuff. When I'm not carrying my netbook around, I often use the extra space in the bag to carry books around in. ( Read more... )
