HAPPY BIRTHDAY
secretrebel!
I've been trying out Adobe ImageReady, and (naturally) did some Stargate things. They're too big to upload as icons (dammit), but I'm posting them anyhow... Use them if you want, credit, etc.
What?
(From Serpent's Venom)
Pepper - Field
(From Paradise Lost)
Jack O'Neill: Intergalactic Space Hero
(From Window Of Opportunity)
And, dammit, I realised I'd copied a line from one of Jojo's fics - totally unintentionally. I hadn't read the story in ages, but was just reading some of hers today, and in 'Delayed Reaction' Jack has a line about telling the truth to total strangers. Which I've totally copied in 'Actions Speak Louder'. Bollox.
My brain has a huge capacity for retaining this stuff - precise lines from stories I read years ago - and it sometimes comes out in my fic. When I realise I've done it, I edit it out - but I guess I'm not always aware of doing it. Must Try Harder, next time.
I seem to have a very visual memory for words. If I've seen something written down, I tend to remember it clearly, and for years. There are still lines from books I read as a child that pop into my head sometimes. But my auditory word-memory is crap. If someone says something to me, I forget it within moments. It's a real pain when my boss asks me to do something, and I've forgotten what it was by the time I get back to my desk. Hence why I prefer communicating via email.
Grah.
edit: And I'm starting to wonder if I got the name of the Council leader from someone else, too. I just have this nagging feeling that I've heard it before. I may be wrong, but...
*cries*
This is making me sad and annoyed at myself.
And...
