New Stargate Story and Site Updates
Aug. 15th, 2003 08:44 amWell, in a fit of efficiency, I not only updated my page, I finally formatted and posted my last long-expired zine story, "Passing." It's a Stargate SG-1/Due South crossover, Jack O'Neill/Ray Kowalski and a bit of Jack O'Neill/Daniel Jackson UST. It's about 50K long, so I'm just going to link to it on my newly-restored website for now and post it here in a few days.

I also, in a further bit of efficiency and/or avoidance, created a quickie gallery of Boo pictures:

I should probably mention that "Passing" is the last of my zine stories waiting to be posted. Any productivity I seem to have exhibited in the last couple of years has been mostly illusory, since I've merely been posting old zine stories as they've expired. I haven't completed a new Stargate story--or a story in any fandom, for that matter--in, um, something like two years (Geah!). It's not that I'm not writing. I've spewed out oodles of the stuff. It's just that I haven't seemed to be able to produce anything but my cathartic Bad!Fic that I will nevernevernever be cruel enough to expose on anyone's eyes but my own. I'm not discouraged or depressed or anything about it, though. I seem to be just as happy and fulfilled writing horrendous Bad!Fic as I am writing "good" stories. This should probably worry me more than it does.
That said, one of my goals is to finish something, anything, and get back in the groove again. I love writing fan fiction, and I'd love to get back into public production. We'll see how it all goes.

The Return of the Website
Aug. 14th, 2003 05:37 pmYes, I finally got off my butt and told the server owner about the issues with my website, and it took him approximately .03 seconds to fix it. Now all I have to do is update it for the first time since, oh, June 27. Maybe plunging myopically into updates will keep my stomach from knotting up every time I look at the television.
Edited to note that last update was June 27, 2002. Need to be a geek more.

Reviewing and so on

destina's already-famous post, zvi_likes_tv said in this post:
Underlying my viewpoint is a distrust in the ability of authors to argue from the text they actually published as opposed to the story in their head. [...] Too often, I think authors take the position that their intentions, motivations, and interpretations are the important part of a story, regardless of whether or not those are communicated to the audience.
( This got me thinking )

Arrrrrrr...zzzzzzzzzzz
Jul. 28th, 2003 12:03 pmI can't believe how sleepy I was all day yesterday. I didn't stay up particularly late the night before, and got to sleep an extra hour, but I was still a walking zombie all day. When Boo had her morning nap, I had one, too, and when she woke up I was still so groggy that I just got her out of her crib, carried her straight into the living room, and laid down on the floor to keep snatching z's while she played. Naturally, since I could barely keep my eyes open, Boo was a playing machine all day. She didn't have an afternoon nap to speak of, and stayed up a good hour and a half past her normal bedtime. Possibly some sort of infant vampirism was involved.
No gaming Saturday night, so instead some of us got together and went to the movies.

Stargate SG-1 "Lifeboat" (7/18/03)
Jul. 24th, 2003 06:22 pmAnd now for something completely different, I'm going to talk about something fannish and discuss the latest Stargate episode, "Lifeboat." I taped it over the weekend, and just now got around to watching it.
