It's so quiet! Ever so quiet! Nothing's happening. Sooooo.... let's stir things up a bit.
By now Marinarusalka - wotcher! - has probably finished Checkmate and we'll soon be able to talk freely. Mariner let us know and we could have some kind of discussion? Who's your favourite character (apart from Francis). Did you spot any plot holes, anachronisms, misuse of ( Read more... )

here's a slightly wicked piece of Lymond/WillScott fan fiction

*boggles* You can do such things? The blasphemy!

Joking aside, I loved it--very entertaining, and you managed to capture the mood. If I wasn't such a big fat chicken, I'd suggest a ficlet competition--but that would mean I'd actually have to write something. *wibbles*

Unfortunately, I haven't had a chance to pick up a copy of Checkmate yet, but I'm determined to have it read before the year is over. I'm sure I'll have tons of stuff to say then. :-)

Well, I've just finished reading King Hereafter (of which I was reminded by the box image) for the first time and am attempting to get more converts to Dunnett as we speak - would definitely be nice if some discussion could be stirred up here again.

Wow, it's so odd to see someone else using a handle I myself have used for years. :) I still have like, 3 vassilissa@whatever emails.

Fabulous. Totally fabulous. But I'm a slash addict and I'd been thinking something similar since I picked that book up.

Forgive me father, for I have sinned. I would rather see all the boys of the the world with other boys than with me and would, in fact, live a life of total chastity happily if my wish were granted...

Ummm...well there is another. Kate moaned that this one was a bit - restrained so I wrote her and less restrained one - it's here:

...if you think you're woman enough.
Also, Robin Stewart has been in my mind lately. I can't get the gawkit so and so out of there. Sooner or later I'm going to have to do it.
