If you happen to be working on some creative writing project, fanfiction or NaNoWriMo or what have you, post a few sentences from each of your current work(s) in progress in your journal. It should probably be your favourite or most intriguing sentence so far, but what you choose is entirely your discretion. Mention the title (and genre) if you ( Read more... )

My Rose has lingering Richard Branson trauma from her formative years. *shakes head sadly*

Yay!

You might be interested in this article from a rather spine-crawlingly fundamentalist site (buut don't worry, it's not proving that pi = 3 or anything!): The Mathematics of Beauty

That's a lovely article. Thanks for pointing it my way!

(I am reminded of the old joke: Biologists think they're chemists. Chemists think they're physicists. Physicists think they're God. God thinks He's a mathematician.)

The HHG one had its genesis in that spamfest discussion we had last week. *blames you*

I spent about a quarter of an hour this morning telling people how much I like you and how you're one of the loveliest people I know and how rocky smart you are! :) :) :)

I spent a quarter of an hour this morning trying to find some clean socks. I think it's clear who was more productive. *nods*

By which I mean, of course: Wow. *is deeply touched*

*SMOOSHES YOU*

Love the palm writing. *giggle* I can't wait to see that one.

And the Doctor Who one, for that matter. :D

It's great fun to write, though sadly is coming in bursts of about twenty words every few days. *smiles*

Thank you!

More Ford and Arthur! They're all brilliant.

Ford and Arthur make me happy. (Thank you!)

Amongst other things, I love the way you start of with "Forced to have sex with aliens" and then extrapolate logical conclusions from there, from denial, to pregnancy, to children, to love, to children turning into wombats, to having wombat children.

Ford and Arthur seem so right. I didn't get on with some of your other fics, but these seem like they could truly have been written by DA.

PS. Thanks for pointing to Anna's AU, that was pretty amazing too.

*bounces* Thank you! That's very kind of you to say -- it's something I love about writing, being able to ask "What happens next?"

I didn't get on with some of your other fics, but these seem like they could truly have been written by DA.

First: *blush* Thank you. Second: Much as I like being told what people like about my stuff (and really, it never gets out) it's very useful for me to know what people don't like about it -- if you wouldn't mind mentioning which of my fics you didn't get on with, I'd really like that, though of course don't feel you have to. :)

PS - Anna = toft-froggy? Dude, that story is stunning beyond words.

Oh Ford. Oh Authur. Ahahaha! ♥

And the SgA snippets made me flail a little.

I love them so much! (And they love each other, even if the words would never, ever pass their lips.)

Yay!
