I'm still here. I've just had the busiest six weeks since pretty much ever (900-page manuscript plus two-and-a-half-consecutive-weeks'-worth of houseguests plus trip to New York plus some other things), but still here. Reasonably functional, even.

Been spending a lot of time in the Star Wars section of the Pit of Voles lately, and I have to ask, why songfic? Is there any songfic out there that would not be vastly improved by eliminating the clots of lyrics infesting it ( Read more... )

1) I have officially bailed on SGU. (Insert "I TOLD YOU SO!" here.) My crush on Sergeant Greer proved not enough to make up for just about everything else. Mostly I just got bored, and that's the one thing I will not tolerate in my entertainment ( Read more... )

1) There is new fic that I want to read SO MUCH, but I'm not allowing myself to read anything else for that particular ship until I finish my own fic (and by that I mean "the section of my sprawling AU of epicness in which they finally dun sex, which I'm planning to post all by itself").
