snow + pirates = thoughts of euclase
Portland really is great for unexpected bumper stickers. But first, snow! Today it snowed, it rained, and it hailed. Multiple times, each meteorological event. It's bloody cold. The snow didn't stick or anything, but it was pretty to watch.
Pirates! I mentioned![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
euclase because for a while there she was writing and drawing art for a really cool story about Snow Pirates. So the weather and today's 'make Thev smile' bumper sticker made me think of her. I'd also sent her a thank you card because she's continued to fill my life with music I'd not otherwise be exposed to. You're also a wonderful friend with a mind I can totally relate to, and for that I'm grateful, dear. (((hugs)))
So this morning's bumper sticker that caught my eye was: Proud parent of a pirate. Hence the art here today. ;)
Not much else to report: work is getting quite busy, so no more sitting around editing or typing stuff up for me! I am at last making solid progress on new and edited scenes for M+M. I also had a lovely chat withkymyrra and a much-needed and cathartic IM with elfscribe5. If you're a Tolkien fan and/or a fan of quality writing, especially in time periods not often covered in fanfic and you're not on her friend's list, go and ask to join! She's writing a really fascinating and compelling story set in Numenor, so it's a Second Age fic. Here's her summary: This story takes place in the Second Age, a little over 1600 years after Sauron created the One Ring and then later destroyed Ost-in-Edhil. At this time, Sauron has declared himself King of Men in Middle-earth and so Ar-Pharazon, last King of Numenor, assembles the largest army ever seen and sails to Middle-earth to defeat him. Fabulous writing and very vivid characterizations. Go, read this WIP and let her know your thoughts!
Also, total random: from time to time I check out Site Meter, which I have on my website. Somebody from Poland spent 80 minutes at my site, having found it through a search for harry/ron fanfiction. What was the last page s/he looked at? My one and only Snape/Seamus story. o_O
