It never fails: Give me a paper or chapter to write, and out comes the fic. Granted, rarely does it make it up here, but it's still the best cure for writer's block I know.

The first halves of these have been kicking around my hard drive for two years or so, but apparently only now did I have the impetus to finish them.

Today, I led a twenty-minute discussion in which, after the first leading question, I said exactly nine words. It was awesomeUnfortunately, it was with graduate students in my pedagogy class rather than with freshmen in a composition class. *sigh ( Read more... )

Um. You know how two weeks ago I made a post about Brennan and Booth being the updated version of Fraser and RayV?

So I was thinking today about Mulder and Scully versus Brennan and Booth (spurred on by this fanfic, which has B&B discussing such things, and Brennan whining about how Scully gets to carry a gun, and so should she), and I came to a realization.

Huh. I just now found out that Janet Wright plays both Emma Leroy of Corner Gas and Sgt. Sam Thorne of dS's "Mountie on the Bounty."

Why yes, I believe that would be the sound of every single Canadian production I have ever seen having at least one actor in common with another Canadian production I have seen. Hee.

:-O

Eeee. Someone managed to get ahold of the original ending to the dS finale. Read it here.

*GLEEEEEEEES* Once upon a time, my 'ship might actually have semi-sorta-almost come true!

( Long, long fanfic meme behind the cut. Question 8 includes a hastily-written 360-word Fraser/Thatcher fic! )

rowdycamels, knowing my dS obsession (and having one of her own, thanks to me) sent me a DVD of an old serial called Canadian Mounties vs. Atomic Invaders*. I watched the first of the twelve episodes tonight ( Read more... )

Hmmm. Did anyone else just get a Facebook friend request from Tony Craig (aka Det. Huey on Due South)? Apparently he's friending everyone who lists dS as an interest, or is in a dS group, or something like that. Something to do with generating yet more publicity for that con in Toronto I seem to keep getting Facebook e-mails about ( Read more... )
