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 ( Read more... )

There are a handful of fanfic writers about whom I can honestly say "I will read any and everything they write." This is because they are superlative writers, and even if I don't know the series they're writing for, they will paint the world such that I live in it, love it, and understand it ( Read more... )

So I've now seen Avengers twice, which puts me lagging far behind my-cousin-the-budding-film-director, but hey, it's what he hopes to be making someday ( Read more... )

It would be a lie to say that the whole house has been cleaned within an inch of its life. However, the kitchen, dining room, and laundry room have been deep-cleaned, as has the working bathroom courtesy of Wonderful Husband. The living room is mostly okay, as is our bedroom.

So a while ago I wrote a somewhat nihilistic Transformers Bayverse pr0nfic titled The Boy In The Box.

Recently, missmaryr asked me if she could write a spin-off/sequel to it. Now, I have my own sequel planned (yes, yes, femme4jack, I will get around to writing it as I promised you), but after taking thought I realized that me having a planned follow-up in no way ( Read more... )

hoshikage has posted the second chapter of "Resolution." And she does some really interesting stuff in it. Go read!

hoshikage has started to post an awesome Tron: Legacy fic! Go read Resolution and comment and let's see if it helps her keep momentum. ^_^

So, hoshikage, she of the awesomeness, has posted chapter two of her Transformers G1 AU genfic Hidden Agenda.

Go read it.

And reread chapter one while you're at it.

Okay, two awesome things.

One, hoshikage has finally started posting fic again! So please go read the first part of her story Hidden Agenda and help me convince her that she's a wonderful writer and needs to write more! (She's known me long enough that my pleas get somewhat tuned out.)

Two, femme4jack has used my Simulacra'verse story Stigmatic as a springboard ( Read more... )

I generally don't do fic recommendations. This is for a couple of reasons. One, I read a lot of fanfiction. A LOT. Two, I doubt my own standards, meaning that I have a much higher opinion of the tastes and intellects of the people (friends) who read this journal than I have of my own. Three, my fandoms are all over the place and there aren't a ( Read more... )
