The most wonderful thing has happened for me, though it's probably not so good for farmers or the places that flood.  After a week or so of uncomfortably summery temperatures, we've got grey cloudy skies and rain.  Thunder and maybe even a bit of lightning, but look!  Rain!  Lots of rain!  It's cool enough to wear trousers!  My skin isn't sticking ( Read more... )

Remember all my aspirations of finishing off more in a fortnight, oh... a little under a month ago?  Yeah, I've done very little at all.  Some progress on more drafts and WIPs, but nothing being polished off or ready for posting ( Read more... )

So, this fortnight has brought with it the posting of two slashfics and another chapter of TAoSK.  Apart from thinking about Fleetwood Mac (and being tempted to type 'tusk' instead of the acronym), I'm being pretty productive.  The Slayers ficlet will probably be out by December?  I'm not sure.  The cover art comp for the Slayers fanbook ends in ( Read more... )

I've been having one of those days where I oscillate between being perfectly confident in my WIP and also so lacking in confidence that setting my fingers and keyboard on fire seems like a mercy to the world.  But that's good; it means that polishing the later unpublished chapters of TAoSK is challenging and that I'll hopefully end up with ( Read more... )

I had planned this for much later, but I've gone a very productive week forgetting to back up my stuff and caught a virus on my netbook. To have something nice to do that isn't frantically retyping about 20 000 words of lostfic (on top of the 10k I've already jotted down shorthand today), I've started posting The Anagram of Suzumiya Kurumi.  I've ( Read more... )

I've finished some one-shot drafts, though nothing that I can get away with posting yet.  Should be something out before September ( Read more... )

Phew.  So, I've got about 34000 words done on the Suzumiya fic, which I'm trying to finish.  Really, I am.  I've only just caught up with my initial concept and am probably 1/2 or 2/3 of the way through.  My proofreaders and test readers have only got up to about the 7000 word mark, however.  So I want to take things slowly, plot a bit more ( Read more... )

I can finally post CONTROL, something I was really excited about working on. I came up with the idea, but didn't get working on it until I was stuck in a room with three ladies watching 24 and had to find a way to make my brain stop hurting ( Read more... )

I've finally gotten my mess together and have copy-pasted In Which Many Cups of Tea are Drunk. here

I'll update the masterlist soon enough, too.  My other Ranma fic is in intensive beta, and won't be seeing the light of day for quite some time.  But trust me, it will be worth it. The final and polished fic will be very readable, though I've been ( Read more... )

So the F4 challenge fic  was submitted, and I've been planning on posting links to site and cross-posting my entry here, but two things have stayed my hand until today.

1.  The judges are still judging, so there isn't really any news or exciting things to say as yet

2.  I was bitten on the hand by a spider.  Not dead, but I was ambulanced, fed pills ( Read more... )
