Welcome to My Journal
This journal is focused on Stargate SG-1, but includes other SF and writing-related subjects. There are also a few personal entries, which are the only ones that are friends-locked.
To find my fan fiction, you can use the fanfic tag. I haven't written a lot of fanfic, but I have completed a full-length novel and a short story.

More Award Nominations!
It's nice to know somebody is still reading my fanfic. Both my novel, Liberating Males, and my short story, The Loving Cup, have been nominated for Gatefic awards! -
Liberating Males Nominated Again
My SG-1 novel, Liberating Males, has once again been nominated for a Stargate Fan Fiction Award. Yay! It's nice to know people are still getting pleasure from it. I do get occasional new reviews on it, even though it was completed in 2007 ( Read more... ) -
The Story in the Words
In my writer's critique group, someone complained about a phrase I had used by saying, "It threw me right out of the story." And I immediately understood what she meant.
Poor writing causes you to become too aware of the specific words on the page, due to those words being badly chosen, awkwardly strung together, or not appropriate to the context ( Read more... ) -
Finally Saw Continuum!
And that's a good reason to finally post an entry to my journal, which I haven't touched in months. The only posts I've been doing lately are on David Cook boards (my new obsession).
I've been going through a terrible dry spell as far as writing goes. I haven't written any fiction for even longer than I've gone without posting in this journal, and ( Read more... ) -
Happy Birthday, ladyireth!
Hope it's a great one!
I've started making a habit of including icons in birthday posts, since I collect so many, but in your case that would be silly. So here a couple of yummy Jack images that I hope will contribute to a good mood!

Stargate vs. Stargate Fan Fiction: What Genre?
Stargate SG-1 is a science fiction show. We know that because it's on the Sci-Fi channel. (Ha Ha)
Srsly, unlike a lot of other things on Sci-Fi, Stargate is true science fiction. It may be geared to deliver action/adventure, but the "speculative fiction" elements are more than window dressing. They are vital to the show's essence, and that's ( Read more... ) -
The Gray Doofus Strikes Again
Mystic broke another glass. I've had this cat for about a year, and so far he's broken two glasses, a ceramic coaster, the decorative lamp my sister gave me, and a pottery souvenir I got in Curacao. Come on! Cats are supposed to be graceful!
Ok, so he's not. He's also not the sharpest feline on the planet. It took him two days to figure out how ( Read more... ) -
Ark of Meh
Finally saw Ark of Truth, for $3.99 on iControl, and was glad I didn't pay more.
I nearly bought the DVD because, even though I'm not a big fan of S9/S10, I was really craving new SG-1. But I heard enough bad reviews that I decided to hold off, and it's a good thing. IMO, the movie was so-so at best, but there were a couple of things I did like:- ( Read more... )
