Writing and reccing and things...
Well, I have now finished with reccing for calufraxand while I was looking forward to it more than not, I had no idea that it would turn out to be quite so rewarding, but so it was. I'm still a little regretful of the 4 fics that came close, but choices have to be made.
Also congratulations to persiflage_1and primsongwho are both winners in the Children of Time Awards, so well done them! I managed to make runner up, but I'm still too pleased with the whole reccing thing to take in anything else just yet. However, it means people must have bothered to vote for them & given the odd pair of fics, well... There were some wonderful fics on those lists, so I should at least give a little hop or jump or something presently.
On the writing front, my tardis_genstory is progressing nicely. (Aside from the whole question of whether it'll be what the person wanted, but minor issues aside...). I am just annoyed at being unable to hop and down wildly with glee on here because given X situation, I have found the perfect name for Y. Which I have. And right names are important. So I shall have to keep smiling strangely to myself in the meantime. (I should add, I'm not wantonly messing with the prompt; it's a matter of a) lovely, lovely prompt that had to be done and b) historical fact so big I can't ignore it. But whether my answer to the question will be what was wanted, I'll find out when it's posted. Hence the writing of 3, once I think of a scenario. Because, frankly, 3 ought to be written anyway.) Er-hmm, enough of coded nothings, but you'll understand once the reveal is made.
And I'm also making a proper start on the 1851 story at long, long last. Aside from trying to hard to make my first sentence too long and descriptive. (Now it isn't. I ended up to go back to short with "London: shining capital of half the known world." I knew I had problems when it sounded as if London was a person...)
Oh, look, tomorrow, I have to go back to work. And do my NVQ Assessor course and all. *Sigh*
