Things Things Things

1. I decided that there's really no point in trying to catch up with snowflake_challenge now. After all, the questions come around each time!


2. Although I didn't write anything for fandom_stocking, I did post Chapter One of the Sapphire & Steel fic I've been writing for annariel and kaffy_r since last fandom_stocking just to show it is a thing that exists (and hopefully will soon continue). Anyway, Sapphire, Steel and Copper in the 1920s, in a spooky house:

When the Lights Go Out (2797 words) by lost_spook
Chapters: 1/?
Fandom: Sapphire and Steel
Rating: Teen And Up Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Characters: Sapphire (S&S), Steel, Copper (S&S), Original Characters
Additional Tags: Brother-Sister Relationships, 1920s, Ghosts, Supernatural Elements, Character Death, seances, Mentions of World War I, References to Suicide, Evil Wallpaper
Summary: It seemed like such a lark, to hold a séance in a haunted house, but what human can bargain with time or death - or even Elements?


3. I was trying to write a letter yesterday for hetswap so I can sign up (because that's the only way I get my requests together for these things) and realised I might just as well start it "Dear Paranoidangel..." instead of Dear Author. Unless of course, she doesn't sign up, in which case I may be unmatchable. Heh. We'll see! First I need to get back enough brain to write requests... (I'm sure tomorrow will be betterer!)


4. Thank you for all the dw_allsorts prompts! I've updated the choice of tables now and you provided some lovely ones! It was very helpful. :-)

Whoa, that's a great start on the fic :D

Thanks!

3. I am still dithering on whether to sign up - it depends a bit on how far I've got with my Chocolate Box fic by the time sign ups end. But part of me only wants to sign up if I can be matched to you :)

[thisbluespirit]

Aww! I'm pondering whether or not to add in OUaT to widen things out a bit, but otherwise us getting matched if you sign up so far is looking likely to inevitable at the moment. Someone else on my flist has requested BFA and The New Avengers, though!

But you don't want to overload on assignments, so, yeah, see how it goes!

[paranoidangel]

I've got as far as looking at what I might request and it does include fandoms you don't know (or don't write) so we might end up matchable with other people.

[thisbluespirit]

Yay, I do like an element of chance and unpredictability in these things! (Not, of course, that us being matched would be a bad thing.)

The world needs more evil wallpaper fic:)

Good luck with hetswap!

Thank you! I put that tag in but I may have oversold how much there is about evil wallpaper...
