so not a surprise? no.

[seperis]

Yeah, so whoever heard me say I wasn't going to write for this can now collect their winnings, as it was in fact a total lie. To be fair, I really shouldn't have said that before seeing the movie.

I need a beta in probably--hmm, a day or two? About fifteen thousand words in final draft, K/S. Please. With sugar on top. Reply or email or whatever--my regular email is working again or seperis at gmail.

ETA: For everyone who is not amireal because it's too late for her--do not go and look at my Voyager fic. Okay? Look, this is part of a fandom when I was really just starting and I eviscerated my fic from a dark period of my life I thought I was finding an artistic soul or something.

This cannot end well okay? It's been like, ten years--Holy God, it's been ten years since I started writing in fandom. I may need to lie down now.

There should be a Decade Club for ficsters who hit the 10 year mark. We can stare at our early fic and cry together or something.

Either that or indulge in some cheap wine and homegrown weed and laugh hysterically.

Oh! Idea! We should totally do this for VividCon. Dig up your old fannish shames, have dramatic readings of said! It could be part of the Badfic Dramatic Reading storytime!

ETA: I realise I should probably mention that I assume booze is a given at a Badfic Dramatic Reading storytime, right? Because I don't think anyone's cruel enough to make people face the fannish shames without a warm fuzzy buzz between them and the pain. *g*

...that's brilliant. Yes. This.

[niqaeli]

Oh hey that reminds me do you and svmadelyn have any baking requests for your room party? Because any and all baking'll have to get done before the road trip out, and there's other stuff going on for me the week before, so planning is necessary.

Yes, yes I am a crazy person. You should see how we do Christmas. :D

*note to self: ship 10 cases of cheap wine to VVC*

There will not be enough booze in the world to drown my shame.

I predict really big hangovers.

...maybe I WILL fly out on Tuesday instead of Monday.

With luck, the memories will all be dulled by the pain.

[niqaeli]

*grinning*

Water. Water is the key to minimising hangovers. And electrolytes! Powerade/gatorade.

[amireal.livejournal.com]

*is an old pro*

Oh yes. My liquor runs usually include gatorade. FOR I AM NOT A FOOL.

[niqaeli]

Hee. Mine too.

Man, I shall have to contemplate what booze I will be bringing with me from my liquor cabinet. (We're driving. *g*)

[amireal.livejournal.com]

This is the first year I'm flying. I SHALL FEEL SO LOST WITHOUT A CAR. Also, now I need to memorize the 'how to get to the hotel' instructions.

HOMG, I have to be *careful* how I pack for VVC this year. *FLAILS*

[niqaeli]

Oh man, yeah that's gonna be hard.

I'm so pleased to be able to bring everything I want to bring this year! I CAN BRING ALL OF MY TOILETRIES OMG. ALLLLL OF THEM. Also, booze. Also, my crockpot! ALSO OMG MY CAR. *g*

I'm a little excited, if you hadn't caught that....

You so do not want me to bring my first Robin of Sherwood 'zine-published story from 1991. You think you do, but you'd be SO VERY WRONG.
