(no subject)
Ladies and gentlemen! Apologies for my horrifically long absence from the glorious fandom, I attribute it to two things: my spaniel chewing through my computer lead and real life beating me around the head with a stick of stress.
Real life has been so crazy lately it's little wonder I haven't been online. There's a fairly old history of insanity in my family (could you tell?) which has recently manifested itself in one of my more distant aunts. She, being kept alive out of spite and the will to destroy, has decided that she is going to sue us for eveything we've got. It's pretty fucking stupid considering she's a millionaire six or seven times over and we haven't seen her in, like, a decade. Still, what can you do?
You'd think this would be the worst thing that's going on, but not with my family. The London football mafia, known, I believe, as 'The Firm', have decided they want to break my cousin's legs. They have actually threatened him with this and similar violent acts because they believe that he owes them money. My cousin manages the ageing punk band Sham 69 and the mafia want a cut of whatever profits they make with their new album this year. I wash my hands of the entire affair.
I have, however, bought THE DRESS OF MY DREAMS...
Keira Knightley wore it to the premiere of Pride and Prejudice and usually there's a six-month waiting list for it but I managed to track down the only one in my size in the country! Such is my dedication to clothes. I will not be able to eat for several months but that just means it'll look even better!
Enough gushing, I know you guys only want fic news! I haven't finished the story I'm working on yet, nor have I heard back from one of my betas about THA. That is likely to be a long time coming as I really rushed the end and have loads and loads of work to do on it. the one I'm working on at the moment is going quite well and I will be posting it fairly soon once I've ironed out some of the mistakes. I will also endeavour to update far more regularly.
Will be back!
