Brief update
Aug. 3rd, 2012 01:14 pmI'm working away at what I guess is the obligatory angsty Lewis-longfic (over 9K words so far, God help me), with (since this is my first British fandom in a while) a lot of googling and help from sites like The Septic's Companion, which I am fond of for entries like this:
"skip: n dumpster. It’s odd that something as revolting should develop such a pleasant name. The dumpster was invented by a man called Skip Mandible. This is a lie."
I will also be participating in the 2012 Bujold Ficathon and have already picked up a prompt whose sheer wackiness seduced me immediately. That should be good motivation for finishing the Lewis fic.
And then, having taken my summer break, I must get back to final pre-submission edits on Time for Tea. I am already getting telegrams from George that read:
YOU HAVE LEFT ME FOR AYOUNGER MAN MAN ABOUT MY AGE STOP STOP STOP
And I assure him that it's really Robbie Lewis I've left him for, whereupon Wilfrid gets into the act. This happened last year too, if you recall.
Am all caught up on "White Collar" now; really enjoying this season with its entwined plots and potential exploration of backstory yes please. I also have to say (you could have guessed) that it's interesting to watch it at the same time as "Lewis." Bromance ahoy. Why I want to write fic for one and not the other I don't know.
Olympics continue fun, though I didn't watch last night because I needed sleep and was spoiled already anyway. Time delay is annoying but inevitable. I do have to say "yay Michael Phelps" though.
For my own use and perhaps because
yunitsa might be interested, list of "Lewis" episodes I've watched twice under the cut.
( Just bear with me here )
And the pilot episode has been taken off YouTube. Blast!
