Could you please keep my family in your thoughts and prayers right now? We could definitely use it. Thank you.
Reading, Listening, and More
Jan. 7th, 2025 12:15 pm
One of my goals this year is be more active in my comms here, so I figured it's time to update here.
Just Read- Doctor Who: The Waters of Mars novelization. I'm doing a Reading Challenge thanks to the library here, and this counts as Set in the FUTURE. I really enjoyed this novelization. It's good when the Target books are more than just word for word of the episodes, and give actual backstory and insight.
Reading Now- Marvel 1602 by Neil Gaiman. Recommended by![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
shivver ! :) So far, this is an interesting comic . It's not just transplanting the Marvel characters into the 1600s ; it actually builds on the world (and incorporates actual historical events)
Reading Next- Not sure; either the Wild Blue Yonder Target books or Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Cabin Fever (Jeff Kinney).
Current Listening: Doctor Who : Dalek Universe 2 . I enjoyed the first set of this series. It's exciting and whoever wrote these just *gets* the Tenth Doctor. His dialogue is perfect. :)
Eragon by Christopher Paolini- So... Tumblr reminded me the film version of this book exists. :P I do plan to rewatch it, but I wanted to check out the original book. It's actually a well-written, pretty vivid fantasy world.
Writing: I did two fics for @tardis_festivities, and finally got around to posting something I wrote last year ( for a OUaT event ) to AO3. Links are below!

<small> And Genermixer prompts are always welcome, even if it takes me awhile to do. I'm trying to get back into writing more. :)

Home (+thing)

I'm back home. :) We got power back last night and got here about half an hour ago. It does feel good to be back home, but still heartbreaking to think of how much damage ours and other states got. And it's wonderful seeing everybody step up and help each other out.

Memed from @thisbluespirit
1.Give me a list of two or more characters (same fandom, multiple fandoms, whatever, it's up to you, doesn't have to be a shared fandom, just whoever you want to write).
2.I'll use them to generate you 3 prompts from the Genremixer!
3. Go write tropey flashfic from any or all of them & link back here.

1. I'm currently in Myrtle Beach (SC). Staying in my aunt's house, she is on a trip to Australia so we're house sitting. And it is WAY too hot here !! :/
2. Went to BAM ! (Books a Million ) yesterday and had to ... actually stop myself from buying about 10 books and a POP! figure of Elsa from Frozen. I settled on 5 books all from this series I've been looking forward to. : https://www.goodreads.com/shelf/show/a-twisted-tale
Thanks toshivver I've been inspired to read Pride and Prejudice recently... which unfortunately was one I put back.
3. I've discovered two new comms thanks tothisbluespirit that are both OUAT on here!! One actually informed me about a deleted scene that I now wish was left in.
4. Beignets. I tried some today for the first time and actually got a takeout order of them. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beignet Basically they taste like little donuts or funnelcake. :)
5. Writing has been... interesting? lately. I'm currently in an online class on Advanced Fiction Writing. With the same teacher I had in my last class (Write Fiction Like a pro). And the last time he used the Wizard of Oz as an example. This class? Beauty and the Beast. And given my current interests, ... I'm starting to wonder if he's just trying to tease me/ get me to unintentionally squee! I did do a Drabble a few days ago and am about to start on my gift for Just Married. (DW, not sure if it's going to be 10/Donna or 11/River)
6. If anyone is following Big Finish's Once and Future, the third release just came out: A Genius for War. And as of now I haven't listened to it/
