Morning Post of Joy!

[themostepotente]

Not in binary today, kids :P *supplies coffee and sweets and congratulatory party favours*

1.) My niece is pregnant. It was a bit of a shock, but I am so happy for her. And I suppose that makes me a great aunt more in ways than one. *g*

2.) Dragon*con next week. So excited!!! And there's a mini Merlin meet-up planned, so more yayz!

3.) Multi-fandom art recs tomorrow \0/

4.) My PS3 took a crap last week, so as a last ditch effort to fix the damn thing, I called Sony customer service. Needless to say, my faith has been restored in technical support. I CANNOT LIVE WITHOUT MY PS3.

5.) Writing progress meters courtesy of marguerite_26!

Yes, Birthday Bash fic. I am UNGODLY behind on like everything. Ugh :-(

That's really a good question about the meters. I used 20k as a base to start. It may end up being shorter, or it may go over. It's so hard to tell. I just know it's going to be meaty and hopefully juicy. *flails helplessly*

On matters of the PS3, I love either first-person shooter games or action/advenure. Doom is my absolute favourite, but I still love Resident Evil and Tomb Raider and Final Fantasy. And um, Resistance: Fall of Man. Borderlands. That sort of schtuff. What about you?

Oh yeah, I struggled with that BDB fic, myself - deadlines are not the friend :/ But that was a pretty easy-going fest from the start, so a late post will be awesome as well.

When I started reading fanfic, I thought 20K was sort of a minimum for a really "good" (=epic development) fic. Needless to say, many many shorter fics proved me wrong! But still, most of the time writing H/D takes up many words for me..I want to express the complexity.

meaty and hopefully juicy
Ahaha xD Very literally? Sounds intriguing, if I may say so, and I hope one of the juices is blood!

Oh to be honest, I don't own a PS3 myself, the only video games I played were for PC (and it weren't many- the Sims, Harry Potter, Silent Hill and Heroes of Might and Magic IV is all I can think of ;)) I just recently realised what a badass lady you are, and I was curious :)
