December already?

[dbskyler]

I am once again doing the WIP challenge at writethisfanfic this month, and the good news is I forced myself to work on the story last night. The bad news is, I took out more words than I put in, so I am starting off with a negative word count. Hopefully I'll be making up for that by this weekend. Which reminds me, we don't know the December fic_rush weekend yet, do we? I think I'm going to need it again to pull me out of this hole I keep putting myself into.

Not doing Yuletide, but I did hang up a stocking at fandom_stocking. It seems like a fun community, although it does feel a little awkward to advertise my stocking -- like I'm shilling for gifts or something. However, since there are umpteen gazillion stockings, I will go ahead and point mine out for any of you who are so inclined as to stop by: my stocking is here.

I've been going through the extras on the S5 boxset, and so far I am disappointed by the commentaries and the video diaries. Although it was slightly amusing to see the in-vision commentary for Time of Angels and notice the amazing amount of awkwardness between Steven Moffat and Karen Gillan. Can we please get David Tennant back in there, just for a commentary or two? Or Colin Baker? I bet he'd have some great things to say. So would Peter Davison. In fact, I think I'm going to have to go re-rent Arc of Infinity to remind myself of what a good commentary sounds like.

Hope everyone's December is going well so far, and to those of you who celebrate, happy Hanukkah!

No dates for fic_rush yet. Not that I'll be able to participate this month - though I shall endeavour to pop by and cheer at least a couple of times...

DO please email/PM me if you want some cheering from me - or to rant/rave or get feedback!

Shall go and look at your stocking, with no promise to fill it, 'cos Five Weeks of Hell start tomorrow!

Oh, there's no obligation at all to fill the stocking! Just dropping by to point and laugh at my tastes is perfectly fine. : )

(I feel a little weird that I only requested my two main fandoms -- I do like other shows, but then I didn't want to get into a long or convoluted list, so I decided to stick to the big ones. Besides, when I would've been the only one to request Space:1999 fic for Yuletide, what are my odds of getting it for fandom_stocking?)

Good luck with your Five Weeks of Hell! I'll be sending supportive thoughts your way. *hugs*

I know there's no obligation - I just thought I'd take a look on the off-chance I might manage to write you something.

*hugs back* Thanks.
