Yay, fun weekend! I'm behind on nearly everything now, but I enjoyed it. Oh, and I finally saw The Hunger Games, which was very well done ( Read more... )

The remix reveal list is up! I wrote two stories this time.

1) Written in the Bone was a remix of a story by deborah_judge. ( yay, writing thoughts! )

The lettuce has sprouted and is growing well! I need to thin it some. The cucumber and squash seeds have sprouted! The tomato plants... aren't doing so well. I don't know if I'm under-watering or over-watering, but the leaves are turning yellow and black. No sign of activity where I planted the strawberries, alas. (As long as the cucumbers do ( Read more... )

I say this every year, but it's going to be so obvious which bsg_remix story is mine. The more I wrote (finished a second draft last night) the more all of the themes I love kept popping out. It's sort of embarrassing, actually. I should write a post about id-fic and WHAT THE HECK DOES IT SAY ABOUT MY ID when I keep writing [theme redacted for ( Read more... )

The third BSG remix is open for sign-ups! So exciting!

Plus someone will remix your fic ( Read more... )

Hey, fanfic writers! The next round of BSG remix is coming up soon! We'll probably open sign-ups by the end of the week. More details soon. We steal borrow a lot of the rules from the multifandom remix challenge, but it's just for BSG writers here. (That's inside the comfort zone; I don't know about you, but that's great for me ( Read more... )

Both are sites that encourage people to purchase less new clothing. Participants pledge to go without new clothing purchases for a specified amount of time. Both allow people to post about how they're ( Read more... )

We've posted the list of authors from our most recent remix challenge. If you haven't already, you should read some of the stories. I still love the remix of one of my stories, which took a short Kara/Sam ficlet and made it into a fantastic reflection of their relationship (and how Zak still haunts Kara) in the early days on New Caprica. Thanks ( Read more... )

I went for a walk around the neighborhood this evening at almost normal speed! Wooohoo! (I haven't mentioned it outside of friendslock before, but in mid-March I somehow did some damage to my piriformis muscle, which in turned made the sciatic nerve all... wonky. Fun times! For example, it hurt to sit, stand, lie down, walk, sing and cough.) ( Read more... )

I believe we've gotten the last of the stories posted at bsg_remix. So go read them! Lots of fabulous stories to be found. There's romance, murder and mayhem, princesses, comedy ( Read more... )
