Fortress Of Good Fortune

Well, I've been busy pimping other comms, so I figured, why not mine? LOL! I've gotten quite a few new people on my flist so I thought I'd just do a quick description:

wonderwomanlove is for all things Wonder Woman. We accept fic, art, manips, icons, articles, news, and a bunch of other stuff! :) We welcome femslash, het, and gen. If you're not familiar with Diana, there are links to lead you to information on her, and if you haven't visited with her awhile, you might want to re-acquaint yourself! :)

We had a successful 2008 Wonder Woman Love Fic/Art Calendar Challenge that consisted of a prompt per month, and there's a nice collection of varied work to see there.

With the new animated Wonder Woman movie coming out in a few months, there could be more material to work with, too! :)

Anyway, if you're interested in a Wonderful time, come check us out! ;)

Author’s Notes: Happy Birthday, stinglikeabee! Sorry it took so long to post, but better late than never, right? ;) Your request of "Diana sweeping Steve off his feet!" is fulfilled. :) I tried to evoke a romantic mood, and definitely used all five senses! :)
My family tradition was to travel to The Wayside Inn once a year for a meal, usually around December because they always decorate so prettily at this time of year.

If you’d like to see what The Wayside Inn looks like, read the history, and see the menu, you can find all the info here.
