Delaying posting till Dec 1 Hi everyone!
Because so many people are in transit this weekend and we're still putting together our posting schedule, we're going to delay posting until the evening of Dec 1. Sorry for any inconveniences! We can't wait to get things started, and hope you all enjoy the fest!
Best, Snarry Holidays mods |

FIC: In Darkness and Regret (FFIV) Title: In Darkness and Regret Author: Rushlight Fandom: Final Fantasy IV Pairing: Cecil/Kain Spoilers: for pretty much the entire game Summary: Being honest with yourself is the first step toward true happiness, but that doesn't necessarily mean you can get there from here. Author's Notes: I just recently finished playing FFIV on the DS, and loved it. This little scene popped into my head as I was playing, and while I tried to resist I couldn't help writing it down.

Gluten-free noms here we come! ;) We'll only have intermittent net access for a week, so a Happy (early) Turkey day to all! *sends warm wishes and blessings to my flist* Current Mood: busyCurrent Music: PoA on in the background |

Regarding BDSM fic and How it Should be Written Dear women in fandom,
Don't tell other women what they can and can't write. Don't tell them how they can and can't express their kinks.
Please keep in mind that when we write fanfic, we are writing fiction. We are exploring our fantasies, not demonstrating how our kinks work in real life.
If you don't like something you are reading, then backclick.
If you want to post a BDSM instruction manual drawing from your own, specific personal life experience than go for it! I'm sure a lot of people will be grateful and find it extremely informative.
But when I see one woman in fandom saying that she hopes a post will stop other women in fandom from writing a particular kink because it isn't written the way they personally want to see it written it make me furious with furious rage.
Especially if you are coming from the perspective of someone who lives a lifestyle that is frowned up and denigrated by greater society. You should know better. You don't try and stop other women from expressing their kinks in fiction. You don't tell them to do it "right" or shut up.
Women should not be trying to silence other women.
Given that, I challenge anyone who reads this and is interested to write and post BDSM fic in their LJ written exactly to their own personal kinks. Make it completely realistic, if that's what gets you going, or don't worry about making it realistic at all. Do it if you've got 10 years of experience in the BDSM community, do it if you're vanilla as hell in real life, do it as a celebration of the freedom we have in fandom to express ourselves exactly as we please through fiction.
Just don't tell other women what they should and shouldn't write and don't let anyone else tell you what you should and should't write. |

LOL!

Get Your Sexy Name
Goodness. Only just wading through my overflowing friends page. So thank you's to: iibnf, mabiana, ariadneelda, venturous, maddiec24, dacro, r_grayjoy, quiescentfor the well-wishes! If I missed you, I probably haven't seen your post yet. I might not until much later, either, as I must get ready for a very rare night out with my beautiful spouse, who is going to take me somewhere (I don't know where) for my birthday. :D *looking forward to it!* Current Mood: cheerfulCurrent Music: Night & Day by Al B Sure |

update + happy early birthday to me Still hanging in there. I appreciate all the well-wishes you've sent, {{{flist}}}. My cough has improved a great deal and I've been sleeping better. Now it's a matter of regaining strength. I had a slight setback dealing with strep, but that seems to be on it's way out now. I'm very tired much of the time, even when I sleep eight or more hours (typical for CFS), and am reliably informed that basically I used up all my reserves fighting this stupid bug and need to recoup. In other words, it'll just take time and lots of rest and eating right and the usual things they tell one to do to gain optimum health. ( more boring tmi health details )I'm way behind on reading my friends page. I might have caught up a bit sooner, but once I was able to sit up for longer than a few minutes at a time, I had to focus on finishing my writing for the holiday exchanges I'm doing. I still have two more to complete before I can indulge in more than an occasional tweet, much less journaling. Plus there is snapelyholidays, of which I can say I am more than delighted with the entries so far. :) I hope the readers will be, too. There was one rather stressful-but-in-that-good-way thing I had to do whilst I was recouping ( aka- my exciting news )The other thing I have been able to do whilst resting is reading some of the fics I had stored on my Palm for just such instances as this. (I have a habit of taking long &/or highly-rec'd fics and saving them for reading at times when I'm ill, like recently. Fanfic is a great distraction, believe me.) So a few recs and then it's back to the writing grind. gen: Crucio by ObsidianEmbrace Fascinating and well-done AU tale highlighting the relationship between Harry, Sirius and Snape. Mind the warnings. sshp: Sunrises by Julia the Younger This one holds up very well, despite a few variations from canon that make it AU, but parts are very spot on, and I could see this Harry and Snape. sshp: The Bondage Of The Mind by hobbitdragon Holy smoking batsex, Robin! This fic blew my mind. It's post-DH w/a Harry suffering post-traumatic stress and a Snape we never discovered, but some might have guessed at... I'll say no more. But even if serious bdsm is not your thing, give it a try. If you like reading different permutations of our beloved characters, this fic might just blow your mind, too. ssmm: Learned Too Well by Oh-Johanna Ignore the SP&G if you can -- the story itself is gripping and ripping and... you may need some hankies. Oh, but the angst is superb. ssmm: Levels of Comfort by Spyke Raven Whew! I like good Snagonagall and this is excellent, packing a punch in not many words. I'm keeping an eye on this writer to see if there is more HP from zir. sspw: The Librarian Of Strahov by sarkaYummy. Read. Current Mood: busyCurrent Music: Start Me Up by The Rolling Stones |

Clank Vs Chains Sorry for the dearth of updates. See previous posts about the state of ass-kicking my job has given me lately. Luckily for me, the lovely cruisedirector doesn't mind sharing moose pops and Paul Gross with me when I get a day off! Theater:I'm heading north this weekend for a flying visit to a friend in Chicago, and have three shows lined up! \o/ I'll be seeing Beethoven As I Knew Him, Don't Give Up On Me with Peter Gallagher and The Addams Family! which I've been dying to see but didn't think I'd have time for since I'll only be in town two days! Birthdays: Happy Birthday ariadneelda! Holiday Cards! Don't forget if you want a holiday card, go here if you'd like a bit of Snape and Harry in the mail! |
