And then after all that, I wrote a Thing. I honestly don't know if it's a good Thing, but in the clear light of, um, three in the afternoon, I can say I don't hate it. Which makes a nice change.

If I ever go to another convention, I'm going as Charley Pollard. I wouldn't even have to try. I even talk like her, when under enough stress.

How fantastic was Doctor Who?

But! After my aforementioned book woe, I am pleased to report that Coldheart is really good so far. I mean, it's only so long before things all go terribly wrong and everyone gets separated, but at the moment, Fitz and the Doctor are making stupid jokes all over the place, bouncing off each other and annoying Compassion no end. This is a Team ( Read more... )

 DOCTOR WHOOOO, HEY, DOCTOR WHO!

( Vague spoilers, maybe )

 I have just realised something quite strange: I'm not used to the Doctor having arms. Or at least, not to him showing them.

(This brought to you courtesy of The Silurians, which has Three in a short-sleeved t-shirt, which is just weird. But seriously, in nearly 50 years, how many times have we seen the Doctor in anything less than a long-sleeved ( Read more... )

It's even affordable (well... I'd be completely skint once I'd bought it, but I could live with that.) I just need them to order it in my size - or rather, in the size above mine, ( Read more... )

OMG IT IS FINISHED. My Big Bang now clocks in at ~29k (which is rather ironic, given that the one I was writing for a 25k limit only reached 24, 700 <- Physics has left me wanting to write that in standard form *headdesk*). And as far as I can see, it has no gaping holes of logic left. So, yay. amine_eyes , I think I've PMed you the link, but if it hasn't ( Read more... )

Oh, I like Cardiff. The University's sort of gathered up down a couple of street and the English library is right next to the English building (though apparently there are lots of lectures in the Psychology building). And the city's nice and near water. I love rivers and beaches and all things watery (um... sort of from a distance, though. I'm not ( Read more... )
