Fortunately, this is mostly on the periphery of my friends list. Please don't assume I think any of you are racists.

I just have to say that if I see the term "POC" or the full version "person of colour" applied to any human being just once more, I'm probably going to scream, make an effigy in snow of the person using it and kick it to bits.

Anadxof asked:

When did you start writing, and how many stories you have? Those are two questions, but related ;)


I've been writing stories since I was four years old and I'm told I was telling them at three. I've always written. My first fanfics were written in the 1990s. I have no idea how many I have. There are 14 stories so far in my sixth season for Remington Steele (averaging 50-60 parts each) and a host of shorter ones filling in various gaps. I've written in several other fandoms and have a lot of Blake's 7 stories and quite a few Drake's Venture, By The Sword Divided and Tolkien ones. I don't think I will ever know exact numbers.

Jo asked:

What are your top 5 fandoms, in order? Which character do you relate to the most in each of them?

The top 5 and their order change frequently, but this is it for now:

1. Remington Steele. I can never decide whether I relate most closely to Steele or to Daniel.

Ask me one fandom-related question in the comments. This can be fandom specific, general, or about fandom/lj stuff/fic writing/etc. in general.


Just one question, please, but it can have sub-parts.

Question can be as wacky as you want. Ask me about tv shows, characters, fanfic in general, fandom issues/meta, anything about any of my stories specifically. Whatever you want.

A valuable journal has been stolen, a man has been killed and I had to dress as a bunny rabbit.

I never should have let him organise the costumes and I don't believe for a second that they were all he could get. How likely is it that he would accidentally dress Murphy as a clown and himself as Sherlock Holmes?

Things were going badly when we discovered that the theme of the party was "Old California." Our costumes didn't exactly blend right in. Mr Steele talked fast and reduced our humiliation, although I'm not sure it was any improvement for me to be described as Kit Carson's lunch and Murphy as Sir Francis Drake's fantasy.

Then a man dressed as Zorro killed a man. The victim expired in our arms and his final words, "Eighty loons." were enigmatic, to say the least. We were so busy dealing with that that no-one noticed a thief enter another part of the house and steal the journal of an old prospector.

None of this makes the agency look good. I'm also slightly troubled that I may have been Mr Steele's fantasy at the party. The question is, does he see me as a Playboy bunny or as Harvey? I'm not sure which would disturb me more.

I wasn't going to get involved, but I hate to see the kind of misogynistic madness that some women are coming out with. Is it some special fun-day for feminists? They all seem to be even stranger than usual today. A lot of people who usually seem quite sane are getting their knickers in a twist about abortion. Apparently, some evil new law allows people not to lose their jobs for refusing to perform abortions. Feminists don't approve of freedom, do they?

I'm not generally fond of conspiracy theories and I watched this documentary expecting and intending to be able to point out all the flaws in it. Instead, it has convinced me.

I know that some people will hate me for posting it, but I also know that I will hate myself if I don't. I've come to the conclusion over the years that it is better to bear a bitter truth than conspire in protecting a more palatable lie. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=7866929448192753501

If you can prove this documentary wrong, please do. I would love for it to be wrong.

The tenth story of my sixth season is now available for download at: http://www.4shared.com/dir/3705548/6b527f49/sharing.html

The file name is Season6Episode10SteeleResolve.rtf. All previous 6th season stories are also there. Usual warnings apply: explicit sex, Tony Roselli, pregnancy and terrible jokes, however, this time the Tony Roselli bits feature him getting what he deserves, so if you ever wanted to see the Rat humiliated, here's your chance.

I decided to watch the pilot episode of Bones. I managed the first four minutes. She's a whining idiot with no class, he's a jerk. I had intended to watch the whole episode, but when something gets to four minutes without a single interesting or engaging character, it just can't hold my attention. I need a glimmer of wit, a morsel of acting ability, even just a bit of eye-candy would be nice. Instead we get leaden lines, delivered woodenly by the two least charismatic people since Gordon Brown.

On the other hand, I highly recommend the Bones vids by SB158. I knew they were brilliant before, but having seen the source material, I can only say she works miracles.

Nobody EVER tell me again that Bones is like RS. Laura Holt wouldn't go around being such a silly little victim!
