Okay, another round of drabbles for the 100 drabbles of summer. I'm still working on the list, but I keep hoping getting some of them out there will motivate me. You can follow the progress on my main table if you want to.

I can’t decide if I want to review something tonight, but in honor of another 100 drabbles of summer round I thought I might actually post what I got done of last year’s challenge, which was a grand total of 8 drabbles (after I finished in 2011). I’m already further along than that for this year but wouldn’t give high odds of finishing; it’s very much a maybe. But obviously better than last time, even if so far it's pretty TVD heavy this round.

-Since I don't have much in the way of TV shows to talk about right now (and even less after GoT ends for the season) what have I been watching? Baseball of course. My Rockies are doing way better this year than last tear so it's fun to watch them again (they're always my team, but last year it sort of stopped being appointment viewing to watch the games). But so far this season it's still appointment TV most evenings.

-Also, apparently my dad has been reading ASOIAF, and asked for my GoT DVDs the other day. We've got tickets to a ballgame next week so I may spend part of the late drive home getting his thoughts so far (I'm sure it hasn't been as surprising to him as it should have been since my mom and I have been discussing stuff around him for a while now so he probably got to certain things and remembered that he'd heard about it a couple years ago).

-My [livejournal.com profile] scifibigbang fic is...progressing. I've rewritten this (probably) closing section almost as much as I rewrote the opening. I think I'm going to leave the smutty bits for a follow-up to be written later unless the talky parts really start coming easier and I feel I have the time/inclination/story room to add it to the goal of this fic. Unless that happens it's not going to be any too long, but should make the 25k requirement.

-Also, GODS DAMN DO I HATE THIS POST EDITOR, THIS IS WHY I WRITE MY ACTUAL THOUGHTS IN A SEPARATE PROGRAM, WHICH MEANS I SOMETIMES FORGET HOW AWFUL IT IS WHEN I DECIDE TO JUST WRITE QUICK POSTS IN IN POST EDITOR WINDOW. And yes, that whole thought needed capslock, I REALLY HATE THIS, WHY DID LJ DO THIS TO ME?!?!?!?!?

Okay, so I slept on it and...I’m not sure things lived up to my expectations.

Game of Thrones 3x09, some book spoilers but mostly around what’s already happened )

So, another pretty detailed review. [livejournal.com profile] willowfaerie2 asked me to do some Game of Thrones reviews, in particular 1x09 “Baelor” otherwise known as “book fans sit back and watch new viewers get the full Martin treatment for the first time.”

Title: Birdsongs in Winter (or Littlefinger Pitches ASOIAF)
Author: [personal profile] jedi_of_urth
Fandom: ASOIAF / Game of Thrones
Characters/Pairings: Petyr “Littlefinger” Baelish, other mentioned, some Petyr/Catelyn
Rating: PG
Word Count: 597
Prompt: westerosorting ‘Pitching A Song of Ice and Fire for TV” challenge
Summary: How would Petyr imagine Game of Thrones if he was the one in charge of its production?
Disclaimer: I don’t own ASOIAF or GoT
Author's Notes/Warnings (fic): The form of this was set up to answer the needs of the challenge, which wasn’t for fic so much as how the pitch would go, mine just ended up being a little more fic-like than it had to be. No real spoilers, just general info from book/season 1.
Author’s Notes (flashback): Challenge for April 2011. This one the challenge, it was the first one outside the Tourney of the Hand contests that I’d ever entered and it won, so I was proud of myself. I’m still happy with the way I approached it too.

Petyr Baelish thinks he's a star )

There are several of these coming tomorrow/later today I guess, but this was the only one I managed to get through tonight.

Tell me you want to play and I'll pick up to three of your fandoms. Then update your journal and answer the following questions:

1. What got you into this fandom in the first place?
2. Do you think you'll stay in this fandom or eventually move on?
3. Favorite episodes/books/movies, etc?
4. Do you participate in this fandom (fanfiction, graphics, discussions)?
5. Do you think more people should get into this fandom?


[livejournal.com profile] scorpiod1 asked me about TVD, GoT/ASOAIF and Avatar: The Last Airbender

TVD, some vague spoilers )

GoT/ASOIAF, slight spoilers if you haven't read the books but nothing major )

Avatar: The Last Airbender, no real spoilers )

Okay, so I think I need to talk about the couple of books I’ve finished in the last week.

First the obvious (and long) A Dance With Dragons Read more... )


And now the less obvious: The Snow Queen’s Shadow Read more... )

So lj still seems to require three refreshes for a page to load correctly, but that's better than it has been I suppose. This is not a good move lj, get it fixed.

So, maybe it's time I gave in and got myself a deamwidth account in anyone has a spare invite code, and if y'all could let me know who you are over there so I can find people again. I'd like the keep lj as my primary online local but it this keeps up...

Also, you might think that the lower amounts of lj-access might mean I had spent my time working on my various writing projects or finishing ADWD but not really. Still only about half done with Dance (I have ~feelings~ about some of the plot things okay?) and no writing. Why? Because I ended up getting kind of addicted to to That Guy With the Glasses, especially his Nostalgia Critic stuff although the guy who does Masterpiece Fanfic Theater is pretty awesome.

wheee

I HAVE MY COPY OF DANCE WITH DRAGONS. FINALLY.

I want to read it so much, but there's a part of me that wants to enjoy the anticipation just a little longer, knowing that I *could* read it. I mean, one only gets to read it for the first time once.
