Hi peeps, hope you're all well.
As you probably noticed, I don't post too much these days, and this goes for pretty much everywhere apart from dA to be honest and that's not often.
Anyway, I've been watching stuff over on LJ the last few days for the lulz, so go check out the latest news post as the comments are fragging gold.
And just in case you disagree that panic and entitlement isn't funny...

My extremely belated NY resolution is to comment on my f-list more. Hold me to this.

From the annals of randomness:
My brother's middle name is Alexander. Alexander is a family name - he was named for my mother's ancestor*, who was named for his ancestor, who was named for his father Alec.
The only thing is, Alec wasn't really Alec at all. Before he moved into the area where they then lived and married his wife, he was known as Amos Gerard, and had had another wife entirely. If I recall the story correctly he may have been an army deserter as well (my mother would know but checking would probably result in an hour's lesson about family history) but he was certainly a marriage deserter, which I'm not sure his second wife ever found out - though she did discover that his name was not Alec Goring, and there's a story that she went to the priest wanting to have the marriage annulled because he wasn't the man she'd married, but was told that she married the man, not the name. (As far as I know the marriage was fine after that, but she may have secretly hated him. They had children, anyway, and one of their...granddaughters, I think, was the first female something-or-rather-political in New Zealand - she has a biography, which does not mention the bigomy.)
*I'm not sure of the exact line of descent, but it can't have been direct as my mother's maiden name is Miller, not Goring, and I don't believe her mother's is either. Or Gerard, for that matter.

OH MY GOD I USED THE FIC TAG AGAIN. NEXT THING YOU KNOW I'LL BE USING THE ORIGINAL FIC TAG. (This is actually true. I have most of the next part of the Terrible Wuxia Epic Rewrite drafted.)
Now that Yuletide is over and I can post this: fic for Patricia C. Wrede's Enchanted Forest Chronicles. G-rated and humor and generally in line with canon; I was not in the business of ruining people's childhoods this Yuletide. :p ~3800 words.

I'm getting a dead signal at livejournal from all browsers at the moment - anyone else?
If off-topic or prematurely worrisome, just delete, of course.

I posted this huge bullet guide of programs to help Windows, Mac & Linux users backup their LJ's via the current drama going on. There's even some programs to transfer your entire LJ to IJ! :D
Find the post here, if you're interested.

| Simulposting with Semagic help? |

I hope this is all right to post here.
Back during Strikethrough, I used Snapetoy's post on how to set up Semagic to simultaneously post to multiple journals and have been happily doing so. However, I got a new computer this week and realized I don't remember how to set that up, and of course the post was on GJ and is now history! Does anyone remember how?
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me.
ETA: Thanks to ![[info]](http://www.insanejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) eemilyvr1 for the link!

Marcy Playground: Sex And Candy |

I love reading longfic (provided it's good). I hate writing it. I'm awful at it, I plan it faster than I write it so I lose steam and lose interest and it never gets past a couple thousand words.
Which is why I really hate when I get a plotbunny. Even (and/or especially) when it's a slightly hilariously cracky one. Like this one.
( Where the fuck do I get this stuff from? )
As you can see, all the interesting stuff has been written out in my head already. This makes actually writing the story sort of boring to me. Therefore, imagine that ^ that plot was presented in a lengthy and well-written fashion, with wonderful verbalosity and an engaging narrative voice that is humorous when appropriate and steeped in mood-giving properties when needed.
