So I've been in a Halloween-y mood recently. (Wonder why. ^_^) Today's reading material was Pratchett's Johnny and the Dead, which left me with thoughts about its relations to Good Omens and The Graveyard Book.
I've also (finally, finally!) been back in a writing headspace. Which I haven't done much of today because of The Squiddle. But perhaps this evening...? We'll see. Maybe fanfic (probably RotG if so), maybe Field of Stars.
And somehow these interests have converged to cause a really good RotG fanfic to rise again on my radar. And, bonus of bonuses, it's now finished! Which, well, it didn't have the swiftest of update schedules, so it's now less frustrating to try to pick up plot threads after weeks or months between chapters.
In short, if you're in the Rise of the Guardians fandom, and want a seasonally appropriate fanfic, go check out
So Darkness I Became. It is well worth the read, and the ending is one of the best uses of the autumn trope I've seen.
