grav_ityI swear, this is the most Yuletide reading I've ever done. Which is, I guess, what happens when I am by myself for Christmas?
Anyway!
Queen and Consequence - The Princess Diaries.
I love this one because, in addition to being funny and capturing all the characters (and pears!) with perfection, it's also about the "real" Queen of Genovia watching a movie about herself, starring Anne Hathaway. There are Chris Pine jokes that are simply not to be missed. It's beautiful.
Sunrose Transplanted - The Trickster Books
Sarai makes a pretty understandable, if selfish, choice in "Trickster's Queen". This fic is the outcome of her decisions. It's not all easy, being out of the plots and conspiracies, but she does her best. Also, we get to see Empress Kalasin, which doesn't happen enough, as far as I am concerned.
Brightness All Around - The Protector of the Small
Wyldon asks Kel if she would like a puppy. I'm not even freaking kidding. Gods all bless.
With All Brightness - Lilo & Stitch
My feelings, you guys. MY. FEELINGS.
Delete Selected Email? - The Anger of Jonathan Franzen
Remember the time Jonathan Franzen got mad at Twitter and insulted, like, EVERYONE ALIVE? Fandom never forgets, that's for sure. And fandom is pretty damn clever about it. This is a series of movie proposals, and it does not disappoint (anyone except Jonathan Franzen, presumably).
Seeds of a Rose - Stealing Fire
Lydias. Lydias. Lydias. Lydias. Lydias.
I can't even.

Twitter is amazing, but also profoundly dumb unless you're networking for something. I just like yelling at THE HOBBIT on it sometimes, is all. LJ is fine for the Jan 10 thing. I'll link to it, and the comments are better than they are on blogspot. ;)

Yeah I know I probably should be there for networking particularly since I want to try to pitch agents this year on the Lucifer story and possibly on the psychic soldeir story (if I can get it finished which I'm supposed to be doing as it's "due" by the end of the year... well hello procrastination). I just don't even know how to begin on setting up an account that wouldn't just get completely abandoned or be buried in fangirling lol.
And whoot! That works. Now I just need to figure out which of my flaily notes will work as a longer review lol
