So things are falling into place for the fun bits this week, anyhow - it’s arranged where and when to meet two TORnsibs for Tosca on Tuesday, and espresso_addict in Oxford Saturday. All good ( Read more... )

Saturday was a somewhat frustrating day. I did a load of laundry and it got rained on three times while out trying to dry. The problems I’ve been having with email on the Wellinghall account remain unresolved although I think at least now new messages ought to get through. I spent much of the day poking at the new Elf story *waves at julifolo who gave ( Read more... )

Much shorter than usual, so I’m not bothering to cut.

Well, Shrek 2 was a lot of fun - a good outing all around. Seven of us met up at a café about an hour before the film, and then afterward went to Pizza Express and then a pub. I am in awe of the level of film knowledge expressed, let me tell you - not by any means limited to LotR information ( Read more... )

Had a peculiar thought the other day, and I direct this one at chaos_rose among others. I doubt it’s wholly original, but I haven’t myself come across it before - how about the concept of meta-kink, in which one is turned on not by a particular kink directly but by the thought of other people being turned on by assorted kinks ( Read more... )

Monday. Um, isn’t the weather here supposed to be cool and rainy? It’s not happening like that - it was in the 80s Fahrenheit today. *phew* SO jokes that we do summer research in the UK to avoid the heat in Oklahoma; well, not this year. Anyone who still doesn’t believe in global warming is living under a rock (where presumably it’s cooler?).

( As usual, long ramblings including quite a bit about the research environment )

So I did actually manage to write a chapter of Passages, which is now posted at Romenna and also at Henneth Annun, take your pick. Links go directly to the new chapter - warning, as usual this is NC-17. Can't post to my own site till I'm home ( Read more... )

An assortment of random comments on the Elf/Man phenomenon.

( Ramblings and rantings inside - warning, long )

to all those who expressed sympathy to my post of a few days ago... I appreciate it very much. Nothing really awful happened, just that dealing with people suddenly got overwhelming. I haven't managed quite as much hermit-cave-ism as I would like, but that's the breaks. I will get plenty soon, anyhow ( Read more... )

Okay, Farewells, the new Passages chapter, is up on my site and also at HASA. So Elf!smut readers, hie you hence. *shameless begging* Feedback? I'm fully aware of the limitations of the story's construction, are the characters and the sex scenes still working?

I've also just revised an old Haldir story, Responsibility, as well, but both julifolo and anglachel1 ( Read more... )

Well, not exactly. No party, but it is my birthday, and I am at last out of my tweens - yes, I am now a Hobbit who has come of age. In honor of which, some fic commentary and pimpage.

I posted the revised version of Remembering at TORn's Main Board as my mathom there.

For those who enjoy the Elf!smut, I have another chapter of Passages ( Read more... )
