Just read the most fabulous fic. Connie Willis's book Bellwether, which is about a woman researching the origins of fads. In the fic, she's researching fandom and fandom fads. This is the perfect metafic; it makes complete and utter sense. Plus, it reads just like the book does. Link.

I am doing nothing else of interest. Today has been very dull so

Ohman, I know this is two days late, but comment has to be commented, because I'm currently rereading To Say Nothing Of The Dog and it's like coming home, I don't even know. Bellwhether is a close favourite, for several ridiculous reasons, including the fact that Passage makes me bawl my eyes out and so is notched down the list, beautiful as it is.

Also, fic! om nom nom nom. Thank you.

I like Bellwether a lot less than the Oxford ones, mostly because I'm a dork for Oxford and I dislike first person (not that that stopped me liking To Say Nothing of the Dog). It's still awesome, though. I still haven't read Passage. I have it, but I know it's going to be sad so I'm waiting until I'm in the right mood. :P
