+So I saw the Avengers movie about two weeks ago with my brothers. I liked it a lot, I've never been a huge Avengers fan but the movie I thought was excellently done. I went into it assuming I was going to ship Steve/Tony if anyone and walked out totally shipping Banner/Tony and Thor/Loki ::throws up hands:: I don't even know. It has interestingly made me not want to write fanfiction as much as reread large amounts of Norse mythology which is great because a) I love Norse mythology and b) I've already spent the last six months reading Norse mythology and researching Viking age Iceland, so it dovetails nicely. (I may end up writing some fanfiction though)
+I also discovered the wonderful
Joanna Estep, who's fanart for Star Trek I adore, over on Tumbler. She has been doing some
kick ass fanart for the Avengers and Thor. She's in a bad fanancial place right now so if you also want to
buy a print from her that would be incredible (I plan on buying one and I'm technically destitute at the moment). I'll be doing a separate post about her and opportunities to buy prints of her art later hopefully.
+Speaking of Star Trek I've been co-writing a long and I think really unique and intriguing Spock Prime/McCoy fic with
reixgaara. It's been a really interesting experience for me since I've never co-written anything before or role played a fic and it's a very different kind of writing from anything else I've ever done. I think takes a very different skill set which I might not really have. So yeah all around an interesting, exciting and informative experience. I hope we get an awesome fic out of it and you all like it.
