Thank You!!!
Jan. 15th, 2024 10:24 amThank you!
A very generous donor gifted me with DW points to allow me to access a big bunch of my icons again! The access will last through Valentine's Day, and expect to see Halloween and Christmas icons used, too, tee hee. Gotta use 'em while I can. I am SO HAPPY!!! :D

Happy Boxing Day!!!
Dec. 26th, 2022 10:27 amTee hee, Happy Boxing Day, luvs! Hope your holiday yesterday was a good one.
I had a nice, laidback day. I went over to my sister's, opened presents, and had dinner. We (including her hubby and MIL) spent the afternoon watching old favorite TV episodes from her DVR, many of which we could quote chapter-and- verse, but were still funny! :)
I got some very nice prsents: clothes, chocolates, books, DVDs and some practical stuff like toothpaste in my stocking, needed because of all the candy. :) I gave all edible gifts, which my recipients loved, so go, me!
I got home and watched a little TV while doing a little writing and hit the sack early. Today is a day of no chores and doing nothing but playing on my laptop and maybe some writing. Oh. yeah, and reading. Reading is the lifeblood of the imagination! :)
Enjoy your day!

Christmas Week!!! :)
Dec. 19th, 2022 06:42 pmWow, it's already Christmas Week! Remember when you were a kid? Christmas seemed to take FOREVER to come, and Christmas Eve was the longest night of the year as you waited for Santa. Now as an adult, you turn around and say, :Is it Christmas ALREADY? :)
Heh, I'm close to posting the last chapter of my Halloween fic, might be able to get my Yule fic posted on time, still have a Christmas story to start...feeling very creative. Are the holidays inspiring you?

Creativity
Dec. 15th, 2022 10:52 amWow, creativity is funny! I had a stretch of white-hot creative output from mid-July to late October with my McHale's Navy slavefic, writing 10 stories in that timespan, then I started to slow down, and now I'm hot with it again, with loads of story ideas written down in my notebook. Yay, me! :)
I've gotten more Christmas ideas! Three so far, though I'm not sure how many will be posted before Christmas. Still, there's a week-and-a-half to go! Maybe a glimmer of a Yule idea, but too wispy to tell at this point.
I wrapped all the presents I've bought so far last Saturday. Buying more this week so more wrapping!
Heh, I started writing this a few days ago and realized that the holiday fluff I originally envisioned are turning into sexfests, bawdy but still fitting the holiday themes. Weird, as for years I haven't written much in the way of sex scenes, and then this summer my Sexy Muses went into overdrive. You should see the topics on my search list, LOL! In fact, I was just ready to post a Christmas fluff piece and it morphed into naughty but nice! ;)
As for my sexfests, what better present than sex by the light of the Christmas tree? ;)

Fannish Update
Dec. 5th, 2022 05:40 pmHi, luvs!
Time for a little fanfic update. I managed to post the final chapter of one of my Halloween-inspired stories on the last day of November. The other story has two chapters to go before completion.
I was happy to write and post a Thanksgiving story before the holiday, and did get a Christmas idea, which I'm working on now. Another Christmas idea is just a glimmer right now, so we'll see how that goes. I also have two first drafts of more McHale's Navy slavefic, so that should keep me busy in between holiday stories. I also have a new Halloween idea which is just another glimmer. Lots of time to work on that one! :)
Hope your writing is going well and that you didn't overload on gift exchanges and such. The holidays and writing should be fun, not stressful! :)

Thanksgiving Week!!!
Nov. 21st, 2022 10:33 amAh, Thanksgiving Week! Here in the U.S. it can be one of two things: crazy bizzy if you're the one hosting the big feast, or pretty peacefuk if you're not. The Christmas frenzy may have already begun for you. My tree is up, decorations will go up this weekend, and there are still presents to be bought and cards to be sent.
Fandom-wise, I managed to post 4 out of 10 chapters by Halloween of one of my Halloween stories, and now have 7/10 chapters up. Another spooky story had the first of three chapters go up (now 2/3) a few days after the holiday, but I did manage a naughty Natasha/Pepper story that started out as horror and got tangled up with some light BDSM. Muses, amirite?
I had zero ideas for Thanjsgiving stories until a Clark/Bruce ficlet popped into my head, and I hope to have that posted by Turkey Day. No ideas fpr Yule/Christmas/New Year;s at the moment.
Hope you can take a breath before the holiday craziness begins! :)

January--Meh
Jan. 27th, 2021 10:38 amJanuary sure has its ups and downs. All the holiday decorations are put away and the tree is in storage, and things are kind of blah, though we did get a snowstorm last night, though only about 3-5 inches. No biggie, but it looks like January now.
TV is slowly making a comeback with shows starting their seasons and sports keep chugging along. Hey, my man Tom Brady is in the Super Bowl again! His tenth trip and an opportunity for a seventh ring! That's crazy! I'll be rooting for him!
No resolutions. I never kept 'em, anyway, so why set myself up for failure, ha? I think I'll just keep to last year's goals: continue writing original fic (2/3 of my third novel is written) and just letting things drift along with fanfic. Seems to be working, so why change it? :)
At least things are looking up politically. Hopefully the honeymoon lasts for Biden at least 100 days.
Okay, gotta get busy writing. Have a great day, luvs!
Holiday Time
Dec. 4th, 2020 11:10 amHope you're all doing well during this busy time of the year. Of course it'll be somewhat different this year (anyone else tired of COVID?) but festivity should still be around for us to enjoy. My tree and decorations are up and I'm working on presents. Weather is cold but not too cold, and I'll be cooking pasta with chunky garden sauce and meatballs tonight. :)
I've got a good-sized fanfic queue (even managed a Christmas-themed story) and have been working like crazy on original fic. It's good to be productive! :)
Got a stiff neck from sleeping awkwardly, methinks, so that's a thing for now. I hope you're all well and not too stressed with stupid COVID and the holidays! I did hear that people are decorating earlier than usual because they want holiday cheer! :)
Merry Christmas!!! :)
Dec. 24th, 2019 10:14 amMerry Christmas, my friends!
Technically, Merry Christmas Eve, but I don't know if I'll be on-line early tomorrow. Might be late as I'm hosting this year Anyway, be merry and have a great couple of days!
Remember when Christmas took forever to get here and Christmas Eve was the longest night of the year when you were a kid? Sure wasn't like that this year. A late Thanksgiving sped things up even more! :)

Halloween Week!!!
Oct. 29th, 2019 08:53 amIt's Halloween Week!!! :)
Yep, the best week of the year. Okay, Thanksgiving and Christmas Weeks are good, too, but do they contain Halloween? I think not! ;)
Our peak foliage is later this year, probably due to some crazy weather we had earlier. Everything is a riot of color!
My place is all decorated. I've got white and yellow pumpkins this year. I've gotten quite a few compliments on my Witch door decoration.
I went to a Halloween party and wore a Witch's hat, Halloween-themed jewelry, a shirt that said 'Ghouls' Night Out', black pants and shoes, and carried a plastic cauldron and broom. :)
Lots of costumes and spooky decorations, and a fine menu. Appetizers included chicken wings, pizza rolls, and pigs-in-a-blanket. The entree was pasta with meatballs and sausages, and I had graveyard (chocolate) cake for dessert. :)
So stir that cauldron, fly that broom, and eat that candy! ;)

Meandering
Jan. 19th, 2019 11:00 amHi, luvs!
We are battening the hatches down here. Not only are we getting 8-12 inches of snow, but rain and sleet as well. Starts tonight. I have my flashlight batteries and battery-powered radio just in case!
Wow, if the Patriots were playing at home tomorrow, the fans would have had it rough! Guess Kansas City isn't supposed to be as crazy.
One of the Christmas stories I've been working on was kind of meandering. I knew what I wanted to say but it was kind of dragging along and not quite crisp, y'know? Anyway, I had a new idea yesterday and now it's all being pulled together. Dontcha just love that when it happens? :)
Stay cozy, and keep reading and writing! :)

Holiday Stories
Jan. 12th, 2019 10:27 amHi, luvs!
Well, my plans for posting holiday stories in December fell by the wayside (RL Strikes!), so you'll be getting Christmas stories in January and February, most likely. ;)
I did manage to post one of the four I had in the queue, and first drafts for two more are done. The last one is a WIP, so hopefully I'll be able to finish that last one in a reasonable amount of time, though now that Christmas is past, there's really no deadline. :)
I had wanted to post my wrap-up of my 2018 fanfic postings, but that fell off, too. Maybe soon!

Holiday Ideas
Dec. 8th, 2018 01:56 pmWell, I'm really getting into the holiday spirit! I'm finally getting some ideas for holiday fic, so hopefully I can post at least a few before Yule and Christmas, though if I post in January, you can get extra holiday fic during the post-holiday blues, ha, ha!
Right now I have a Bruce/Dick story written, total fluff, that needs work, but it's coming along. And I have an idea for Golden Age Steve/Diana, and maybe some World's Finest. I also started a Natasha/Pepper story last night that might turn into something.
I might even have something Clexian to write! Right now that's kind of iffy, but the boys are hanging around, so we'll see. :)
How about you? Any festive ideas for your favorite characters this year? :)

Pats Rally
Jan. 29th, 2018 09:42 amIt's been quite an experience during recovery. Right now I'm watching the New England Patriots rally down at the stadium while resting on the couch. This never gets old. :)
I've been doing a little writing so you might see a step-up in posting from me. Still got tons of stuff to wrap up from 2017 but am starting to make some headway. You'll be getting a mix of Christmas and Halloween and New Year's, ha, ha! Right now I'm working on my Clex Halloween story, which has no deadline, so might wind up finished by next Halloween! :)
Man. am I tired. Naptime after the rally! :)
