So while I was gone from LJ I got the bug to write an original romance. This was partially probably inspired by the fact that one day i felt like watching pretty boys kiss and sat through hours of Luke/Noah stuff on Youtube. (afreakindorable!) That's probably why I decided I wanted to write about two male soap stars falling in love. I'm working on the fifth part of this now. It's completely waffy and self-indulgent and has no redeeming social value whatsoever, but it's beautiful boys making eyes at each other, so enjoy if you like. No title yet.

( When I first notice, it’s a Monday. )

another meme cuz i need moar carpal tunnel plz

1: Name your ten favourite titles from stories you've written (or, if you're not a writer, just name your ten favourite titles).

we're talking best titles, not necessarily best fics here? I'm terrible with titles. I can only think of three of which I'm especially proud.

1) The Forever Kind. Like how this gives you a hint that isn't fulfilled 'til the end.
2) Fathers' Day. My favorite kinds of titles are those that put a little twist on a common theme - it makes you want to read the fic so you can find out how it differs. And speaking of which:
3) The Game of the Name (flocked). Don't you want to know why it's not the other way around? I do, and I wrote it. :D

2: If you happen to be working on some creative writing project, fanfiction or NaNoWriMo or what have you, post exactly one sentence/paragraph/whatever from each of your current work(s) in progress in your journal. It should probably be your favorite or most intriguing sentence so far, but what you choose is entirely your discretion. Mention the title (and genre) if you like, but don't mention anything else -- this is merely to whet the general appetite for your forthcoming work(s).

I've posted snippets from my book before, but here's another one:

Eleven Reasons We Were Reborn
a Please Save My Earth fanfic set by Jennifer Wand

( I. For a Dinosaur's Eye )

Best. First line. Ever.

came to me last night while thinking about a fic challenge in anichallenge.

And now it has a fic attached to it. It is a Sailor Moon fic, of course.
The challenge was to write a fic involving the seven deadly sins and/or seven holy virtues. So here we are.

In the Courtroom

( It is widely known that God is the ultimate judge. Less well known--though hardly surprising--is that Satan is the ultimate lawyer. )

Every year I write some Christmas Carols based on whatever I happen to be into at the time. Last year it was Buffy, the year before Gravi, the year before that HYD. This year, it's City of Heroes. Let's start with a guest carol, written by hedgehog39. I think you'll agree it's hysterical.

( Grinding Mobs, to the tune of Jingle Bells )

My offerings:


The 1st level hero
Is most likely to be
Hanging around Coyote.

The 2nd level hero
Is most likely to be
Getting his first contact
and a'slummin' around Galaxy.

The 3rd level hero
Is most likely to be
Beatin' up some Hellions,
Trying his first door mish,
and begging to all: "PL me!"

The 4th level hero
Is most likely to be
In the Atlas red zone,
on a team,
begging for a rez,
and streethunting for some XP.

The 5th level hero
Is most likely to be
Dead In Kings Row!
Totally outclassed,
on his face,
Licking up the dirt,
and transported back to Galaxy.

The 6th level hero
Is most likely to be
Heading for the Hollows
(Pool Power Time!)
Meeting David Wincott,
in a jam
Aggro'ing 2 mobs,
And ready to call a taxi.

The 7th level hero
Is most likely to be
Stocked up with Awakens,
In Electric Eel's lair,
Knee Deep In Trolls!
Looking for some Dyne,
far in debt,
Avoiding the Thorns,
And still dreaming of getting TP.


( Oh Little Town of Paragon )

There are, of course, other offerings, such as "The Little Scrapper Boy" and "Raiders We Have Killed on High," and of course, "'Brains,' The Herald Reaper Sings." But the piece de resistance is the following little ditty (which will be funnier if you frequent the CoH forums)...

( Good King Statesman )

We do parties, Bar Mitzvahs, etc. etc. etc. Good night everybody.
