fandom life

To-do, fandom-wise:

femgenficathon  due July 31.

Castielfest  due August 9.

Narnia Fic Exchange due August 30.

And then I also just signed up for spnsupporting, which, praise the flatbread, has no specific deadline.  Plus I want to finish my Lucy/Ramandu's daughter, and I still have that half-done Anna fic floating around.  And an Edmund LWW vid, and an end-of-Who5 vid.  And I want to write poetry, too, but I never have time or inspiration for more than a few lines.

Also I bought, when I got The Magicians (arrrgh), Stardust, so I want to read that, and I've yet to finish Good Omens, and my brother got the new Rick Riordan for his birthday so I want to read that, too, and I have to sort through all my family's Pratchett to see what I've not read yet and what I want to steal, and also I am long overdue for a reread of the Madeleine L'Engle books.


I did the friending thing today via an awesome female characters friending meme, which is really cool.  Yay new friends!  I talk about myself and my life and my fannishness all the time here, obviously, but it seems to be the thing to do to put up a little something by way of welcome and introduction, so.

Hi, I'm Meto, I'm a going-to-be second year college student.  American, West Coast, of European-mutt descent.  Only girl of four kids in my family, liberal, mostly-non-political, Catholic.  I'm studying literature and history, and I have no idea what I'll do with it - probably teach? I love reading, and writing, and music; I like to swim and to play soccer though I don't do enough of either anymore.  My favorite fandoms are Narnia, Supernatural, Merlin, and Dr Who/Torchwood, though I can easily get gleeful over any number of tv shows, movies, and books.  My greatest ambition in life is to have a room devoted to my personal library with wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling rows of shelves, sliding ladders, and lots of well-loved and also plenty of untouched and pretentious books.  I also like to bake and to paint my nails and to watch Disney movies.  Annnd I've run out of things to say about myself.  Welcome welcome new friends, I love finding other people who love the same crazy stuff that I do!

You did, and it's actually ahead of all those things on my list - I'm just about finished getting through my backlog of emails from camping and I have the document open and read through once, so you should be getting that back in the next couple of days! Sometimes I just need a reminder, so thanks for this!

Re: The Magicians. I really do recommend reading it. It's well-written, and I adored the first part, and despite the argh, or even because of it, it's really good for making me think. Plus, I want people to talk to about it :D
