1. Yuletide noms closed this morning - next up comes the fun! The full tag set, letters appearing, making requests! \o/

(And guess what? I nommed the 1968 TV Dracula as my third fandom. Just as I was about to repent my folly, some nonnie commented on the fandom promotion thread to say that they liked the look of it and that was all the encouragement I needed. So I will have three impossible fandoms on my request list. /sheepish)

But here we go again, folks! *bounces*


2. [livejournal.com profile] het_reccers is having an anniversary Trope Bingo, so I requested a card, because that should make me, you know, actually rec something during the month.

It's like a big square the sort of fics I would go out of my way to avoid, though. I think there's one possible bingo in there, but I shall just go for any squares for which I can find het fics I like - I don't especially want a prize, just something to make me rec! So, I think it should work.



If you're not scared off by that, you too could have a card here!


3. I made a post to one of my comms - [livejournal.com profile] dw_allsorts (the Doctor Who mini-table prompt comm*) asking for suggestions for prompt tables. I wondered if anyone here would have any suggestions. There's more details over at the post, and there isn't a desperate need - it's just that I know everyone is so different and I'm very aware that all of these tables were made by me, so I thought it might be quite nice to have some by other people? If anyone has any ideas, or would have joined in if there was a table like x, now's your chance! (Also, if anyone would like to suggest a theme for a table/tables, that would also be cool. I didn't think of that when making the post).


4. I wrote a thing for [livejournal.com profile] runaway_tales the other day! And so what, you cry? Well, it was not for Heroes of the Revolution, it was for The Pirate Queen (another of the three fake shows I did at the time, only one that had current actors and was In Space! With Pirates! (Well, Pirates-ish.) I had some thoughts about it, so I might occasionally write some bits for it? I don't know, but there's this, which I did hastily for the Flavour of the Day:

Beneath My Dignity (All ages, 444 words. Lio Hadwin, Arkryte II.) Lio gets lumbered with his nemesis on an away trip.


* It is an awesome comm! You should join! I'm not biased; I didn't make it... Oh, wait, I am, and I did. ;-D

*eyes bingo card* Hmm. Good luck with that. Still, at least you don't actually have to write the fic yourself!

Pirate queens! In space! Have you seen "Cutthroat Island"? Not in space, but a pirate queen. Okay, she's not technically a queen, but she is an awesome pirate. I recall you saying you'd avoided "Treasure Island" at one time because of the lack of women, so "Cutthroat Island" might be the perfect film for you. Okay, I may be slightly biased as it's one of my favourite films, but still. I can actually rec a film that's really about a pirate queen - "Anne Of The Indes", from 1951, but the side-eyeing over epic sexism would probably make it not technically a rec. More an apology. But bits of it are good! ;)

Pirates! :) "The Pirate Queen" is an excellent ship name, space or otherwise.

I will hopefully read that story later today.

*bows down to your all conquering obscurity* I saw you had thrown caution to the wind. Can't go wrong with vampires:) I should probably do a promo for 'Bulman' after ending my dithering (I'm still crossing my fingers that the people saying they were nomming vaguely popular things didn't change their minds at the last minute. Oh the tension! Again).

I'll stick to gen reccing - it's less scary;)

I have no prompt ideas other than ghosts! more ghosts! all the ghosts! Ich habe einen eye-patch! Scotland?

Hurrah for more fic! With eye-patches?
