Ficly goings-on

Since I didn't get around to a fic-round up in January, this list covers both months. Not that there's much here. 6 stories, c.5,400 words

( But the stories do cover 4 fandoms )

Also, since I'm trying to get back into a writing frame of mind, a meme seen all over, but nicked specifically from szm

Post a single sentence from each WIP you have (or as many as you want to pick). No context, no explanations. No more than one sentence.

Despite always saying that I don't do WsIP, I did find lots of notes lying around, so some quotes are from them (including a co-written one - hope you don't mind, perspi!). The rest are from stories I plan to write, so are what a sentence from them would look like if I'd written them already.

( Everyone suitably confused? Excellent )

Fannish Drift

With Dreamwidth rapidly hurtling towards reality, I've been doing a lot of mulling (read: staring out of the window chewing a pencil) about the way I thought I'd use my LJ and the way I actually do.

Since that bit's of no interest to anyone but me, I've also been thinking about Fannish Drift as a phenomomonemon*. I came to LJ for House-fic, stayed for Torchwood/Doctor Who/Jack, got hooked, lined and sinkered by SGA and am now watching my flist diversify into Merlin, Leverage, Psych, Due South and all kinds of other shows. ( Cut for rambliness that never actually goes anywhere )

*Like Nanny Ogg, I know how to begin spelling things, I just have trouble knowing where to stop

Of the awesome today

There are many things I want to do, including, but not limited to, replying to the 'fannish drift' post (it never ceases to amaze me that other people want to talk about the things I want to talk about. Spooky), writing up some recipes for ricecakefree, and reading some of the things on my 'unread' tag on delicious. Since I'm rather knackered, this is instead going to be a short 'how I was awesome/how are you awesome' post, then I'm going to bed.

Today I was awesome because I went to and stayed at my Slimming World group. Not only had I lost weight, I had a good time \o/ Every week, this is *hard* for me, but I keep plugging away at it, and hopefully it will get easier with time.

What about you guys? Conquer any mountains today?

Oh, and I managed to pick up a copy of Neil Gaiman's 'Stardust' for 50p. Result!
