Starting with the next rec, I'll be in the LAST 10 RECS stretch of this project, and I have something planned for that already, not necessarily something special but... let's say the last 10 stories are a very particular batch. On January 1st a freaking gigantic post is also going up that's related to everything so far this year, and that will ( Read more... )

To those of you who celebrate such things: Happy Halloween! To LJ: Screw you, I'm not using the "old version of the Friends page," I'm using my own template, don't you dare turn that off, I pay for it, idjits. To Seattle: stop raining long enough for me to clean up some leaves, please; no-one wants to smell my four giant maples' worth of rotten ( Read more... )

I had the distinct pleasure of drawing the loveliest story for Star Trek Big Bang this year. It was my first time doing this challenge, and I only just signed up to do a fanmix. It was just the right size of a project for me right now, and just the right theme. The story takes place in New Orleans, following Pavel Chekov there after he's decided to ( Read more... )

Well... that turned into a whole day and a half of "this is not what I had planned to do with this day and a half." I'll have family visiting for the next ten days, too, so it's possible the schedule will slip. And I haven't got time for reading at the moment, so it's possible I'm about to get cranky. Ach! Why can't I just sit and read fic and eat ( Read more... )

I had some real issues deciding whether I should rec this tonight or wait until it's settled a bit. I think I might do better talking about it when I've had some emotional distance, to be honest. But when I tried to envision talking about another story, any other story, I knew I couldn't do it. So here we are. I've been happily cocooned with this ( Read more... )

This is a funny one. I don't really mean funny "ha ha," and I kind of hate that I've said it, because now I have to explain it and I'm not sure I can. But that's kind of par for the course for me, and this story. It seems to exert quite a bit of influence you wouldn't expect for such a slight little thing. Just under 10k words, barely-slash (and ( Read more... )

This will probably come across as a cop-out, but I've actually been planning it for a while, and the 200th rec seemed as good a time to make it happen as any. Under the cut are twelve links to sequels, or works in the same verse, as the original stories I recced here a while back. They cover eight different fandoms, which I'll place in the tags so ( Read more... )

It's been a while since I talked about these two, even longer since I talked about the Abrams!verse versions of them, so here we are. I think I was saving this one for a rainy day. Today is decidedly not rainy (after almost a week of monsoon-like weather, that was intense even for us) but it's depressing in other ways, so I'll try to rec a couple ( Read more... )

Three things make a post, hmm? Alrighty then. This is mostly just to have something to show for the fact that I've been mindlessly staring at YouTube for the last two hours instead of making progress on the BB art (which is going well otherwise! but still...)

Thing The First:
( Fraser & RayK. An awesome little Dodos song. Grin-making until *almost* the very end. )

It's been a while since I've read Kirk/Spock, when it seemed like for a while there, that's all I was reading. And that was Original Series reading, too; as far as Reboot stuff goes, it's been even longer. I came across this almost two weeks ago, and kept it on back-burner, but I really needed a distraction from Project Work this weekend, so I dug ( Read more... )
