Goodness!

My trip to Florence is becoming more exciting by the day! And I will leave that cryptic note for the moment until more things are finalised.

I briefly contemplated becoming Stephenie Meyer's nemesis, but then, as I said to someone recently, I think she is more the Bay City Rollers of publishing than the U2 of same. And for everyone saying "Bay City Who?" well, exactly, time will take care of her. So I will use my time more purposefully.

Is it appalling of me that living more purposefully has turned out to mean writing Remus/Sirius darkfic? Still, at least two stories will be posted this month, one H/D and one AS/S, so for the people who are only here for the fic, there is light on the horizon.

Managed to post one of four fandom related packages today. It could well have been two, or even three, if I hadn't managed to lock myself out of the house for an hour. Oops.

like i've said before they were a gift and very comfortable!

and you have a very good point. all of the rollers were trained and talented musicians, but why they became famous is beyond me. i would think that you could also compare SM to britney spears. britney was musically trained as a child, SM went to college and got a degree in english. they both have the background, but are just barely mediocre in what they create. yet the fame is blinding. i just wish someone would explain to me like i'm 5 years old how and WHY this happens.

It's because some literary and music publishers are utterly amoral and will pimp crap to idiots in order to make money. They pretend that this is less appalling than selling crack, but it's not.

i'd rather take the crack. at least with that, i'd REALLY see the music.

Yes, but then your nose would fall off.

hasn't bothered michael jacson TOO much. the falling nose, not the crack.
