HEY, GUESS WHO'S BACK WITH A BRAND NEW RAP-
AND I DON'T MEAN RAP AS IN A NEW CASE OF--
Right. tldr: this semester was all Nine-Levels-Of-Hell Awful, but I’m glad that it is over. I will be slowly catching up on things LJ-wise (and Yuletide because, holy cow, this year is different).
Anyway, how has everyone been? What have I missed out on? Throw me all your links! Comment here so that I can tell you how much I missed you!
Other things, mainly Yuletide…
I defaulted earlier on (without penalty), which makes me want to kick myself because it should have been avoidable had I been more cautious of the fandoms I offered to write. Taking the time to write a 1000 word fic wasn’t the issue*, but going over the source material was going to cost me a huge amount away from my studies. I just couldn’t do it, and the prompt I got was… ah, let’s just say that I would have needed to go over the canon a bit more thoroughly than what I expected. But to make up for it, I am determined to write stuff for Yuletide Madness. I’ve been clicking around the new archive and WOO, THERE IS STUFF I HAVE NOT READ! (Some Temeraire, Team Fortress 2, Angels in America, etc, and I never knew Dead Or Alive even had fic!)
I was also wondering if I should upload some old fic on the new archive. I certainly don’t want to spam the place with my crap, so if anyone has any suggestions on which fic seems appropriate enough, give me a heads up.
*And obviously I have been writing things, mostly porny/fluffy TF2 things that partly kept me sane because I was so stressed with school I could’ve just choked a baby or something. So, porn. The non-anonymous porn kind. Mostly because I was like “fuck, I don’t care, if it sucks, then someone will tell me to gtfo”, but that hasn’t happened yet and the chan has been known to be brutally honest to point out if you are Doing It Wrong. It helps that tf2 is a crude fandom, lol. I’m hoping it’ll extend to my other fandoms so that I can sully my name even further. Hi, Temeraire fandom, I’m looking at you.
New places where I have an account!

New places where I have an account!
- Tanyart on the Archive of Our Own!
- Tanyart on forumspring! Now before everyone moans and groans and berates me for being an attention whore, I realize this semester that I like writing! It’s true! What’s more, I love writing for other people. And what I mean by that is: I love stealing people’s ideas and mangling them in 100-500 word spurts. So while I’ll still be taking random questions about myself, I’d also like to receive drabble requests. Anything. Because clearly I’ll need something to do over winter break, and that doesn’t end until February. :)
- And I have a Skype! I haven’t used it yet and I don’t know if I will, but if you want to add me, then that would be cool! I am “tanyarted” on there. You can hear my fumbling nor*cal valley-girl accent!
- I have seen Princess and the Frog and I cannot wait to start writing fic.
- My ‘s’ key is gimpy. I have to pound it with a hammer to get it to work, so if you see a missing ‘s’, you’ll know why.
- The jump from Temeraire to TF2 has absolutely trashed my writing, so forgive me for any future Temeraire fic that may-or-not-be-coming-oh-god-what-am-I-doing-
- Yesterday I was in for the longest eyebrow waxing I have ever had. It was not pleasant. And I don’t care if its tmi, taking Human Anatomy has cured me of any bodily squick factor, but this lady ALWAYS manages to screw something up. But she is so cheap, I cannot help it!
- I’m gaining weight. But that is expected this time of year.
- My younger sister drives now. It is a scary thing.
- And because I am a crazy head, I still have more stuff to write/draw Christmas exchanges/gifts. Huurrr.
