On a less angst-ridden note, I recieved two fic awards in the last couple of days. By A Thread won runner-up for Best Het at the Rogue Poet Awards and A Spectator Sport won Best Solo-Action at the first round of the  Indigo Crypt Awards. I just wanted to say thank you to those that nominated me, the judges for their efforts and the gorgeous award ( Read more... )

cause I am DONE, baby!! Yeah. I finished my last ever undergrad paper early this afternoon, and it felt damn good. And a relief. 10 minutes after I merrily sent my paper off to my prof I gathered all 26 of my library books - those were from my thesis and my two other final papers - and proceeded to get them out of my sight by dropping them off at ( Read more... )

Oh god. ohgodohgodohgodohgodohgdohgod. I finished the thesis. It's gone... I didn't sleep for 24 hours until the 4 hour nap I took just now, but at least it's done. And decent. What I handed in, at least, wasn't embarassing. Not great, but I can live with that. Because it was so late, my other two papers are going to be extremely late, too. I have ( Read more... )

That's what I'm currently doing...from Tampa... in a Sheraton. Ha. I am pleased to announce that I am currently on my first business trip! I'm working at the Convention Center this weekend in downtown Tampa for the MSA show, which is for exhibitors that market or produce products bought for and sold in museum stores/gift shops across the world. I' ( Read more... )

Hey, kids. Shades of Grey Awards just announced the winners for Round 23 and I won two awards for my Faith/Angel shots. I know, Part III is supposed to be "Coming Soon..." and the soon part hasn't arrived yet, but eventually I'll get back to their arc because I love those two to death. I have another series of shots featuring them as well that I've ( Read more... )

Rogue Poet Awards announced their winners today and Tea for Two and  Unsung Heroes snagged awards for Best General runner-up and Best Het runner-up. I have warm squishy feelings for both of these stories, and am thrilled that the judges felt the same. They both highlight some rather unusual pairings, and mark the first time I ever wrote Tara and ( Read more... )

Yup, here I am again. Back at school for my last semester. It's a relief that school will be over, but fairly nerve-wracking that real life will have to take its place. I've decided I'm only going to take two classes in addition to my thesis seminar, which will free up a lot of my time to work two full days a week, do fieldwork, and look for jobs. ( Read more... )

Good news! My Spike/Angelus ficlet Not Yours won runner up for best drabble/ficlet at Round 22 of Shades of Grey Awards. Check out the link for a list of all the winners. To date this is my first and only slash fic, and a pretty naughty one at that. Angelus just brings out the utter perv in me.  Mm, Spike ass, ass of Spike.

I am sick. There is coughing and mucus involved. It's kinda sucky. So, it was super cool to find out after dragging myself back to my dorm from my trip to The Vitamin Shoppe to get liquid echinacea, eucalyptus oil, and Robitussin, that I won a few awards for A Spectator Sport, Window-Dressing, and Drive it Home at Rogue Poet Awards and Fang Fetish ( Read more... )
