(Thank you, hormones!)

I met feliciacraft! She came up to my neck of the woods on work, and ended up staying just a couple of miles away, so we went out for dinner last week. It was awesome! There's nothing quite like discussing the mechanics of porn writing in a family-friendly pizza establishment ;D Oh, and she bought me some locally made chocolate from CA ( Read more... )

It's gone 2am, and I've been writing all evening, once again very few words for the amount of time spent, but... this story, Winter Lights, it's the kind of story I haven't written in years, where I take care of every single word, and everything ties into everything else, like ribbons on a kite-string.

My task has not been made easier by a really busy week in work, losing this weekend to enforced socialising ( Read more... )

I've been trying to post a fic there for the last 20 mins or so with no success D: Haven't dared look at my delicious account since The Controversy started, don't you fail me too AO3!
