How did I manage to forget that Supernatural was on tonight? I went up to the Donkey to study with Lisa around 8 and then I went to Maggie's party at 10 and I just...forgot. And it's almost the season finale and--and--

Anyone got a download? I'll love you forever, seriously. And I was so proud last week when I worked ( Read more... )

LOST was a clip-show, right? Because I totally forgot to watch it.

See, I was reading Tithe, minding my own freaky business, and a 'ship occurred to me. Like, whacked-by-a-cricket-bat, stop-reading-and-stare-into-space-for-ten-minutes occurred. And then I turned the page and a plotbunny ate my face off.

I guess this is the true test of fanfic: am I ( Read more... )

In fact, I'll say 2,013. That's the total wordcount of the file that has y'all's ficlets in them. And I'm not done. Some of them are barely more than drabble-length, and some of them ramble on for 500 words (Cati, how do I turn the pilots off?!). Just remember, the word-count of your ficlet is directly proportional to how much I love you. XD

I got divebombed by a robin today. It came out of a bush at scalp-snatching height, and if I hadn't ducked (while shouting "Jesus God!" really loudly), I'd be exploring a world without depth perception right now. Seriously.

I royally sucked at Latin today. I could tell tenses all right--better than usual, at least--but fuck if I can tell the ( Read more... )

Somebody finally reported me at ff.n for stories that no longer comply with the re-fucking-diculous* standards at the site. Funny thing, they didn't report the stories that actually don't comply. They reported two of my songfics--"One Day More" and "Ding Dong, the Witchking's Dead"--because they happen to have script-like names denoting the singing ( Read more... )

I joined musesfool's song challenge, mainly because it gave me until June to complete it, and I can maybe actually complete a fic in six months. The song I wound up with was Nickelback's "How You Remind Me"--not a song I like a whole lot, because Nickelback just makes my brain go "argleblargleflibbityblech," but extremely interesting in a lyrical sense.

*points to subject line*

Word.

Also, I'm feeling like non-nanoing right now, so a meme I saw...somewhere...at some point.

Ask me what happens after one of my stories.

If I know or can make it up convincingly, I'll answer. ;) Seriously. I'm eating Hershey's miniatures shaped like leaves and obsessively smoothing out the wrappers. I'm always like this ( Read more... )

I'm writing a quietly angsty second-person Legolas/Gimli Valinor fic from Gimli's perspective. I'm also so exhausted that the name "Gimli" is no longer immediately recognizable to me. I'm not sure if the exhaustion is the result of the slash, or the slash the result of the exhaustion, but currently this situation feels too full of significance to ( Read more... )

And then some days you know exactly how you want to write something, but every paragraph goes off on three different tangents and you can't decide whether to use "gorram" or "rutting" in any particular instance and somehow the story is just never going to get from Point A to Point B.

Damn you, Mal, why must you be so bloody difficult to write?

Also, ( Read more... )

How is it that I can write 3,000 words in about five days, and then when I only have about 500 more words to go, it takes me weeks and weeks? I just have to get them from the aircar to the apartment. And then that little bit in the apartment. And that's it. It's the reason I was writing the fic in the first place, so why is it so bloody hard? The ( Read more... )
