Wacky Weekends: Oops
In my defense, it is December. The paycheck job gets scary busy in December, and also finals week happened.
Rather than talk about the vilely antifeminist, binarist, looksist, ableist, and horridly insulting (and I'm dead certain they didn't consume any of the art they insulted) comment I have just deleted off the first post on the Conall Publications blog—why people feel the need to be vicious to random strangers who have done nothing but exist, I will never understand—let's talk about something more cheerful: It's almost Yuletide!
As my Dreamwidth profile says, my artistic ambition at the moment is to write something that gets nominated for Yuletide, the annual tiny-fandoms mega fanfic exchange. A Yuletide nomination won't mean I've hit it big. But it will mean I wrote something that resonated with someone, enough that they want more of the characters, more of the world. I am a product of fandom. Someone wanting fanfic of my work is one of the highest compliments I can imagine.
Guess I'd better get back to work on Leah Far-Sighted, huh?
