I was all ready to buy groceries today, having carefully outlined and balanced my budget ... when I remembered that I still have to buy two textbooks this week for the second half of my Latin course. *headdesk*

Following 03mm's suggestion, I went ahead and created a Fiverr account and have listed my first gig: an original 5,000 word story for $5. ( Read more... )

This could probably do with another read-through, but frankly I'm sick of looking at it. XD Whatever mistakes remain are there for posterity now.

This is the second of my help_japan fics, as requested by queeofspades: she asked for an angsty h/c fic in which Sirius was an alcoholic and Snape helped him overcome his addiction, preferably with slash involved ( Read more... )

I think this may be the fluffiest piece of fluff I've ever written in my entire life; and, truth be told, that makes me nervous. (I suspect I'm not terribly good at writing fluff.) But fluff was what was ordered, and so fluff there is! Thus ends the first of my four help_japan fics.

This story was written for arachne13, who requested a Card Captor Sakura manga- ( Read more... )

Well, I went ahead and wrote it. And somehow, it ended up being an extremely cathartic exposition on the death of childhood and the struggle for creativity in a mainstream society. (Who knew?) I'm a little worried that I managed to subvert everything the show stands for, but even Phineas and Ferb can't stay kids forever.

There was a thunderstorm tonight. It was brief, as per usual, but while it lasted it was wild and lovely, and ... that's really the only excuse I have for this.

Just a quick note to say that I officially have a page now on Archive of Our Own: o2dokoFirst I was on the waiting list for a while, and then I took forever to get around to uploading things, but it's up to date as of this morning. (And let me tell you, I am NOT moving 'Hours' anywhere again. Uploading that monstrosity takes forever. @_x ( Read more... )

I'm having one of those restless, frustrated days where I simultaneously want to climb a mountain and make a nest out of my bedsheets and not move, everAnd my general solution to days like these is to write, strings and ropes and torrents of words, but I don't want to work on anything I already have going and my mind is buzzing too loud to create ( Read more... )

I was washing the dishes this afternoon, and Loki was sitting on the edge of the sink watching me, and while I worked this little ficlet popped into my head.

It's complete, unapologetic fluff. But I had to run with it. Unbeta-ed and written rather quickly. My first attempt at Sherlock fic; be nice.
