Yes, I'm still here, I still love the fandom, and I still have stories to tell.  (I just hope anyone is still reading after I vanished for ten months ( Read more... )

"No Such Thing as Absolution," the next story in the "Adaptations" 'verse, will be online tomorrow.  I'm posting today because I want everyone to appreciate my beta reader, resourceress7, who made this possible.

How?  With twenty-nine hours total of line-by-line discussion and analysis, in face of sleep deprivation and my overzealous love of semicolons.  We ( Read more... )

Currently, the "Adaptations" series-my attempt to bring medical realism to Chase's spinal cord injury (hereafter SCI)-has been taking priority.  I've been fortunate enough to have resourceress7 and enigma731 join me as co-researchers (giving me the benefit of superlative organizational/editorial skills and a neurorehab background, respectively), because SCI and ( Read more... )

Sorry for having disappeared for a while: processing the finale took longer than I'd have liked.

I could devote a few paragraphs to the infuriating illogic of the thing (beginning with the terminal thymoma and ending with House's magical escape from infernal doom), but others already have, and there's no point in replicating their efforts.  I will ( Read more... )

As an introduction, everyone's dæmons (names, forms and the significance thereof, as well as a few paragraphs to explain what dæmons are to those who aren't familiar with His Dark Materials) are listed here.  Note that fics are posted in order of internal chronology, not necessarily the order in which they were written.Filed below is an early ( Read more... )

1. I'm working on that holiday gift-fic for phinnia. (Yes, the one that was supposed to happen last year and apparently took exception to the fact.) It's set within the dæmonverse AAU and features House and Wilson spending winter solstice with Chase. So far, it's coming along very nicely: warm, funny and bittersweet in turns. It'll even be done by ( Read more... )

Watched a few House episodes yesterday and came up with this: a dæmonverse AAU spin on S2's "The Mistake," told as a poem in free verse.

The Vague Large Thing has germinated and is growing a plot; it promises to be at least the length of its predecessor.  I've written the first draft of the prologue and am currently deep in R&D, which is wonderful as I have something of an obsessive love of research.  Some details have been ironed out as far as setting goes: those of you interested ( Read more... )

 I have just started plotting a Very Large Thing taking place post-"Principles".  I'd promised myself I wasn't going to do that.

Clearly I lied, because I cannot say when, but it's going to be novella-length.  It's going to be, period.

Plotting a story is like naming a stray: once you have, you're attached.

Why does inspiration always strike when it's ( Read more... )

Hello, all-it's been a while.  Real Life has been busy for me and promises to stay that way (dammit), but even though the time should really be going elsewhere, I manage to write a little.  Lately I've been busy finishing the beta for the latest installment of ruby_took's Werewolf Saga, titled " With Our Eyes Upon the Moon."  Anyone who enjoys House/Wilson ( Read more... )
