Writing stuff

rpf_big_bang starts posting today so I'm looking forward to having lots of goodies to read and rec. WHEE!

A week today mine will be going public. Meep!

Oh, and there's still a chance for you to make me your fiction bitch. I will write anything you want (just about) in the SPN fandom and all the money goes to charity. Just over a week left until bidding closes

That was quite dark and messed up but very good. I could see something like that happening between Bale's Batman and Ledger's Joker if they'd been able to take it that far. It's the first time I've read any sort of Joker backstory so that was good.

Keeping myself busy

Giving my rpf_big_bang fic one final read through before I post it privately in my fiction journal ready for next week. It's pretty tight now and I am pleased.

I'm actually all caught up on my shows apart from Castle now so I might try and write some more Beauty and the Beast fic tonight or maybe make some icons. Then it's the episode of SPN that I have been dreading since I accidentally read the spoiler about you know who (no, I don't mean Voldemort).

My neck is really stiff today. Don't know what the hell I've done to it :(

Aww! I feel all proud

Dave just rang me all squeeful and excited because he's just received a commissions cheque for $700 for a short story he had published last year

If you're into zombie stories I highly recommend the anthology. It's got stories by Stephen King, Neil Gaiman, George R. R. Martin, docbrite and Dave amongst others

Dave's been writing for the whole time I've known him and he's very good. His first novel is currently on it's 3rd edit and he's looking to try and get it published some time next year.

Watch this space

Hee!

jacqui_hw rented Tropic Thunder and it's still hilarious

And I still wish this was a real film
