the rain it raineth ev'ry day

Reason #2412434554 why I live in the Best Country On Earth: People from another country can post on Craigslist and perfect strangers with accordions will come out on a rainy day to help them get married. [via sonatine, who I think counts as an honourary citizen by now]

So I lied about having fic for Sunday, but thanks to the fine folks at rough_magic the one story I was working on has turned into five times the awesome (and I do mean that literally: five stories). At present I have 3,000 words of Sparrington Jack/Norrington and about a thousand each of three other stories. (Someday I may write something in this fandom which doesn't involve the good Commodore, but it's not going to be anytime soon.) But this is really a pretty good way for me to work: anytime I hit a wall on one thing, I just leave it for a bit and switch over to something else. Anyway, at least one of those should be finished and posted for your collective viewing pleasure in the next couple of days.

Also, the other day I finished Master and Commander, and I'm now working on Lieutenant Hornblower in my rare breaks from writing, so basically, P(me writing naval porn¹) is approaching 1 as t goes to infinity. And I may have downloaded the first episode of Doctor Who because I need another fandom like another leg

...I shouldn't make math jokes, should I. I mean, too late, but yeah. Sorry. Just be glad I don't subject y'all to my hilarious chemistry innuendoes. (You don't even want to know.)

¹ Naval porn of the non-Pirates variety, that is; naval porn of the Pirates variety is already well underway.

books, nerd alert, glorious and free, writing
