Bit of Ivory

I should have picked a pen name closer to the beginning of the alphabet. I only got one day on the “recently updated” list on SQ. 3 reviews that really count (’cause while I love you, Jen and Lou, I already know what *you* think of my fic ), though, which I suppose isn’t bad […]

I slept in today. Which is very weird. I usually hear my roommate getting up and getting ready and leaving, which lets me know it’s time for me to get up, so I don’t usually bother setting up an alarm. This morning I heard her alarm go off at 7:00, and then didn’t hear a […]

We spent the night brainstorming for her fic (and made a major breakthrough, I might add), and when we were waiting for the waiter to box […]

Today’s Friday Five looked pretty good, and I can’t think of anything else to blog at the moment, so: 1. If you had the chance to meet someone you’ve never met, from the past or present, who would it be? I have to choose just one? I can’t. It’s a tie between Joseph Smith, Jane […]

Looky here! I love it. It’s pretty and mysterious and very, very cool. I remember looking at the cover of GoF back before it came out, and I hated it. My first impression was “Ew. Harry’s ugly.” I like it more now, of course, but my first impression was less than ideal. But this one […]
