spn_summergen fic is locked, stocked and off into the luminiferous aether of cyberspace.

In celebration, have a minispam!

  Interesting article that puts into words the vague kind of frustration I get whenever people organize short little things into the day that totally cramp my writing groove.

  Dear god, what is this strange alien creature who looks like nothing so much as Fanon!Rockstar!Draco?

Pimpage: free_fiction is a little community that I'm helping out with. The basic idea is to keep this a small, word-of-mouth community where people can talk about - and post snippets/full forms of - both fanfiction and original fiction. I think it could be really awesome, even just in terms of getting feedback on WIPs and chatting and bouncing ideas around without having to worry about presenting a fully polished product. Once we get a few members, we're going to start out with a a kind of pimms-and-lemonade-mad-hatter's-tea-party of comment drabbles for WIPs or concept-fics that were fabulous in your head, all those crazy crossovers and original notions that never quite got off the ground and lurk on your hard drive chucking out the odd ninja-bunny, like ill-disguised espionage agents lingering around the duck pound, throwing out the occasional rye-and-raisin, surprisingly nutty breadcrumb.

...Wow, that got away from me.

Join up, watch it, who knows? You might like what you see.

Wow, it must be exam time. Operation Procrastination is at Defcon One.

Leverage:



'cause geek and muscle go together like horse and carriage
The Alec/Eliot comment fic party. You know you want to come and play ...


It's very timely, actually, considering this fascinating meta by facetofcathy on the stastics of the burgeoning Leverage fandom activity, and the surprising lack of Alec Hardison, the One Geek to Rule Us All. (Okay, that last bit was all me.)


My contribution: Snuggling.


Supernatural:

Pimping out a new community:



They too have a comment fic meme going on, the theme of which is 4.22: The Day After.

Eta: I forgot to note that the community is friendslocked. I'll probably repost the drabble soon in my own journal.

This is mine.
(Spoilery, obviously. Set immediately post-finale to the prompt: You-Know-Who is suddenly right there.)


The spn_summergen have gone out, and I'm very happy with mine; I've been hit with an awesome concept, and now all I have to do is pull it off.

If you got my prompts, don't worry about sticking to them exactly, I'm very relaxed, and you can go off on all the tangents you like.

Meme:

Everyone has things they blog about. Everyone has things they don't blog about. Challenge me out of my comfort zone by telling me something I don't blog about, but you'd like to hear about, and I'll write a post a reply about it. Ask for anything: latest movie watched, last book read, political leanings, thoughts on yaoi, favorite type of underwear, graphic techniques, etc.

Things that are Good:

One Froggy Evening.

A seven minute long Warner Bros. cartoon from 1955, released as part of the Merrie Melodies series, and it will WILL BLOW YOUR MIND.

- Wikipedia.

It's utterly, utterly adorable and funny and, yet at the same time, a perfect summation of human nature that is incredibly relevant in the wake of the economic crisis. Watch it. It is 7 minutes of your life that you will never, ever want or need back.

( Embed under cut + Linkspam + Recs + Candy (except not really. More like cyber-candy.) )

Meme:

Ask me to, and I will:
1. Tell you why I friended you.
2. Associate you with something - fandom, a song, a color, a photo, a word etc.
3. Tell you something I like about you.
4. Tell you a memory I have of you.
5. Ask something I've always wanted to know about you.
6. Tell you my favorite user pic of yours.
7. In return, you must post this in your LJ. Eh. Do as you will.


I have nothing of further value to contribute at this time. Except this: ♥

1. I'm on dreamwidth here if anybody wants to find me.


2. All are welcome, Open ID and DW users alike. I just thought Leverage needed a home base on external territory. ;)




3. Posted fic on the Supernatural H/C Meme for the prompt:

Dean, Castiel, Sam (slashy is good but not required, gen good too!)

A demon has a grudge against Castiel (maybe for his role in getting Dean saved, or in killing Alistair). Sam and Dean arrive in time to save their angel, but there's repair & comfort needed, of course.

It's over here.


4. This makes me sick to my stomach. (Review of the new Seth Rogen film 'Observe and Report')

"It's like date rape — that's funny, right?" - star, Anna Faris.

Of course. Because Rape is hilarious.

(Warning: there's a fair few pictures.)

( So all you fill the streets it's appealing to see, you wont get out the county, 'cos you're damn as free, you've got a new horizon It's ephemeral style. )
