How I Write

Discipline!!!
It’s all well and good to dream of the Bohemian lifestyle and create without rules and regulations, but that’s pretty much what it is: a dream. Unless you’re a genius on the level of Picasso or Joyce, unfettered and undisciplined isn’t going to work.

The World's Finest (Essay)
May. 10th, 2011 01:01 pmHey, luvs! I just posted my essay on The World's Finest (Introduction To Superman/Batman) over on superhero_muses. Go check it out and have fun discussing! :)
superhero_muses. Go check it out and have fun discussing! :)While Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer was more about social issues, Santa Claus Is Comin’ To Town delved more into political/philosophical concerns.

Meta: Rudolph As Gay Symbol
Nov. 30th, 2010 09:50 pmWatching Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer is always fun. The message of accepting differences is a good one, too. As a five-year-old seeing it for the first time, it made a big impression on me, though admittedly, I wondered why a red nose, difference or not, was such a big deal.

Old Married Couple Moments
Aug. 24th, 2010 11:05 pmThoroughly enjoyed yesterday’s angstfest E! episode, Virus. Johnny falls ill to a mysterious virus that’s brought down others, too, but the virus is a new strain no one’s ever seen before. Roy does some wonderful worrying and emo’ing over his partner. ;) When he finally has to go back to work and leave Johnny's side, he’s told his replacement partner’s waiting for him out in the squad. “My temporary partner,” he says.
Roy and Johnny are the paramedics of Station 51’s A-Shift, and the four other firefighters work off the engine (Big Red). All six spend 24 hours at a time with each other, sharing meals and sleeping in the dorm at night when they’re not called out. Roy and Johnny sleep about two feet away from each other. ;)
They really are a family instead of just paying lip service to that fact. All six guys are friends, bicker, squabble, and save each other’s lives in fires or on other dangerous rescues. Chet and Johnny share a Spock/McCoy relationship: eternally bickering but always there when the chips are down. Chet is Johnny’s closest friend after Roy though both would rather die than admit it. Within the family of six are Roy and Johnny, partners and Old Married Couple. ;)
In honor of one of E!’s finest emo episodes, enjoy some slashy moments between the guys throughout the series!

Well, the Batman movies were quite an experience! :)
So, what did I take away from watching all five of the movies? Simply that each had its own fans and style and no one is going to agree on anything. :)

Final Crisis (Interview with Grant Morrison)
It sounds pretty bad, folks. Death, more death, perverse evil, and, um, more death. Just another cheerful day at the DC offices. I think as a fan, being the ‘textual poachers’ the intelligentsia named us will work. Don't leave, join the Resistance! ;)
