( I was at a BBQ tonight... )

I have a pet peeve about the promotional art that the Cartoon Network put out for Young Justice.
Dear Cartoon Network Promo Department:

Artemis Crock has BROWN EYES. Please fix your promotional art, which gives her blue eyes. And by "fix", I mean "release new art" so that viewers stop associating Artemis with this inaccurate YJ poster. Artemis is ( Read more... )

Rather than post a separate entry on the Jack Layton chalk memorial, I've edited my previous post to include a new photo of Nathan Phillips Square before the rain, and a Toronto Sun article about how people were re-writing new messages today after the rain.

1) How did you first get into writing fanfic, and what was the first fandom you wrote for? What do you think it was about that fandom that pulled you in?

"Feral" fandom: I wrote Fern Gully fic in grade 7 and Peter Pan fic in grade 8 ( Read more... )
