Yuletide and Reel_Torchwood

[paragraphs]

Yuletide is posted, and I am extraordinarily thrilled with this piece. I can't wait to share it. It's in my beloved first person, is just the most favorite kind of writing for me (sigh, I am such a romantic), is based on two real men who were lovers in real life, which made researching their lives absolutely fascinating. Just--I can't wait to talk about them more. I fear I will bore you! But too damn bad. LOL. (SO looking forward to 'meeting' my recipient! She's not on LJ, just on Dreamwidth, so but for this our paths would never have crossed. I believe she is a Brit--not positive though).

I'm working on my reel_torchwood piece right now and it is nearly finished...I am a picky git though and I am not entirely satisfied with its smoothness. It's truly the first thing I've written in so long, that the start is just rocky and cranky and I for one can tell when I started to get the groove back. So I'm trying to smooth out those first 5-6 pages and hope to get that done tonight before bedtime (11). I have two hours!

LOL I thought I'd posted this...got distracted. So, changing the time and sending this up, then back to work on my Gulls. :)

Also? So go read this amazing story I haven't even finished yet but DAMN sanginmychains is ON on this one, in so many ways. POW!: http://sanginmychains.livejournal.com/13298.html#cutid1

Even though we both know I have limited knowledge of TW, I am intrigued by how you're working them into "The Birds" (or working The Birds into TW, or whatever...)

And I don't know what this Yuletide is all about (I never did check out the rules) but I'm intrigued by that as well!

I need me some new C-writing to read!

WATCH TORCHWOOD!

Yay!

Why, oh Sherwood the Wise, do I so embrace writing in first above all other POV's? Do tell me why!

Sigh.

I love it so. I do, I do. I DO!

[sartorias.livejournal.com]

Well I do because it's so personal--one can really slip inside those other shoes.

[paragraphs.livejournal.com]

Exactly! I LOVE THAT!

Slipping into those other shoes.

EXACTLY!!!

And what kind of shoes would those be? Hightops, perhaps? Blue even!

And speaking of blue, is my piccie in the mail yet?

Glad to see you're having so much fun writing. I likes it when you's happy.

Merry Christmas, Snookums!

Just a note post-reveal to say thanks again for the fic! I'm mostly on Dreamwidth nowadays but I do still poke around on LJ. And no, I'm not a Brit, but I have studied there for the past nine years...

And I always, always love talking about Britten and Pears. :)

HELLO! Dang it, I missed the reveal! I was shopping. LOL.

I am going to write another post about this now that the reveal is open--I hope you'll look back, because I plan to wax poetic about this wonderful request I got. :)

I am so happy you were so happy to get them. I was ecstatic--then had so much fun reading about them, watching the vids, looking for pictures, etc. More about this sometime in the next couple of hours.

Now I must thank my person! (I got an adorable Lion King-Nala fic)

I will definitely look forward to seeing your post. :)
