Have just worked nine days in a row...am very, very sleepy...

Because, even after Bigbang, I can still be double-dared into signing up to fanfic challenges as though I were five...So here be my prompt table for spn_30snapshots!


( Here )

I posted my bigbang fic!! With 16 minutes to spare! Now need to sleep...Anyone spots any mistakes anywhere do let me know. The links at least all work and are posted in the right place:)

Bigbang is done!

Author Note: A huge thank you to pigeongirl99 and tallulahrose74 who both proof read this to death. They're wonderful women and I'm so very grateful for their help. Any mistakes left are mine:) GO AND LOOK AT THE MOODY, BEAUTIFUL, FABULOUS ART BY SWEETEST_POTATOE. IT IS AWESOME:) Finally, all the information about New Orleans food is shamelessly lifted from the fantastic book, Gumbo Tales by Sara Roahen. It's wonderful, go read it! Need to go and fall into a coma now:)

( Prologue )

Have sent my bigbang first draft in!

*does the snoopy dance*

Now I have four weeks to turn the first draft into a version that's readable.

Losing 72 games of minesweeper in a row and then moving onto Mahjong tiles is not an effective way to write your bigbang fic which is due on FRIDAY.

A stinking, nasty cold is not conducive to BigBang writing or, indeed, to having any kind of fun with your girlfriend:(
pigeongirl99  however, is a bucket full of awesome for making me this icon to commemorate the fact that I have finally graduated with a Masters Degree in Sexual Dissidence in literature and culture)
She is the bomb:)

I am clearly not to be trusted to my own devices. Have signed up to the SPN_J2_BigBang. Have written 640 words. Only 19360 words to go.
Will ban myself from all and any decisions in future...

My scarf is already misbehaving, and I've only knitted 16 rows:)
 

I am free! 

My M.A. has ended!

Am reading novels about gay Hawaiian detectives, and tons of fanfic, and every Agatha Christie ever written!

Am writing the odd bit of fanfic again!

Am knitting!

Am learning to cook!

Am realizing I'm so into Supernatural and those crazy wincest boys that my head might implode!

Am realizing I've been so rubbish at LJ, that the only people left to read this are people I know in RL - no matter:)

I'm starting again, with everything, LJ, fic, etc...

And despite a shed load of RL issues (relationships, uni, health) I'm pretty damn chuffed with being alive...

I''m back:) Fanfiction of a slashy nature will follow shortly..:)

BTW, anyone ever gets a chance? Country of the Pointed Firs by Sarah Orne Jewett is awesome. 'Cause, she was, you know, totally my thesis gal:)

 

So, in order not to think about the four hellish days I have coming up, or the fact that my dissertation supervisor won't reply to my emails; here be more fic. CSI fic, to be exact. This is just a little Greg/Hodges fic I wrote a few weeks ago - although I seem, rather alarmingly, to be developing a propensity for Nick/Hodges of late.
As always, constructive criticism is most welcome...


Title: 42 After All
Author: Marlowe6468
Fandom: CSI Vegas
Pairing: Greg Sanders/David Hodges
Spoliers: Certainly up to, and including, "Empty Eyes" - shall we just say up to the end of season seven to be on the safe side?
Warnings: Slash, my friends, same-sex love abounds.
Rating: Barely a PG. Kissing but no sex:)
Disclaimer: I do not, nor have I ever, owned CSI, it's plots, or its characters. If I had, Sofia would be a lesbian, Hodges would be out of the closet, and George Eades would never have been allowed facial hair (bless him).
Author's note: Thanks to Pigeongirl99 for the beta. Title shamelessly stole from Douglas Adam's Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy.

The thing about going back to uni after two and a half years is that you quickly realize that your brain has turned to mush in the interim.
This leads to much panicking, and reading, and not keeping up with your LJ.
Then, of course, when you do get five minutes the number 6 on your keyboard stops working, which results in your complete inability to log on to the net, your email account, and your LJ (please observe my username:)
It also means that I will now have to try and find a mythical computer shop in Hove that a friend has promised will help me.
What would really help me would the shop being at the address stated and not, apparently, flying around like something out of Gulliver's travels.
Rant over. Promise:)
Serenity rocked and I have now converted 4 people to Firefly. I will indoctrinate the world, I will.
Haven't read anything but Foucault, and Dollimore, and Butler for weeks.
Have forgotten why reading is fun.
That counts as a rant, doesn't it?
*sighs*
I know I'm very lucky to be able to do this course, and I do like it, but damn, post-grad is hard.
Need a slashfest with Pigeongirl99, but failing that will go home and watch Firefly. With my Mother. Who said she would never watch it. Until she saw Serenity. I will indoctrinate the world, I will...

Scene in a bookshop.

Me: Oh, I'm sorry, I'm afraid there are no tills on this floor, you'll have to pay downstairs. (With appropriate fake smile.)
Customer: What do you mean?

Or...

Customer: I'm looking for a book.
Me: Do you know the title?
Customer: No.
Me: Author?
Customer: No.
Me: Do you know what it's about?
Customer: Not really.
Me: Do you know what it looks like?
Customer: It might be about Hollywood. But only some of it. I think the cover might be darkish.

But better examples come from other booksellers.

Bookseller: Travel books? They're on the first floor.
Customer: Is that upstairs?

Customer: Where are languages?
Bookseller: They're upstairs in the reference section.
Customer: Does that mean I can't buy them?
Bookseller: Uh...no.
