Nerd Church - Competing With A Dancing Monkey For Your Attention


'Competing With A Dancing Monkey For Your Attention' with social media icons and a megaphone in the background


Sometimes it feels like I'm jumping up and down, trying to get attention for my writing, my blogging, my whatever-ing...

...only to get lost amongst all of the other people jumping up and down and vying for your attention in an increasingly noisy world.

Friday Fics Fix - Five of My Fave Novel-Length Superhero Fics


I love novel-length fanfiction!

I know, I know, it's not exactly a secret at this point.

...I didn't always; love novel-length fanfiction, that is.

I used to prefer the shorter the better.

But somewhere along the way my reading habits changed, and now I can't get enough of the novel and novella length stuff.

Month In Review(s) - October 2022

Warning: this post discusses spiders - no pictures of spiders though, because I wouldn't do that to myself. 

I also briefly discuss illegal drugs because I like variety, apparently.


October was... pretty good, all in all.

I mean... the UK economy collapsed, followed by the UK government, and everything feels a bit like a slow-motion breakdown of society, so... that wasn't good.

Still, apart from all that, October was pretty good.

Nerd Church - Climate Change Is A Today Problem

 

Somehow some people still seem to think climate change is a tomorrow problem.

It's not.

It's a today problem.

Friday Fics Fix - Bucky And The Shady Government People

'Maybe it’s the last many months catching up with him, or the fractured ribs, or the way Sam watches him like a damn hawk. Maybe it’s a peace offering. Maybe he’s trying to get Sam to let his guard down. Hard to tell, with a hundred year old assassin.'

Some fic authors I'll come back to again and again, cos they got the stuff I want.

This week's fic comes from one of those authors.



This is based on - what else? - The Falcon and The Winter Soldier (TFATWS).

It involves mission fic-ness, novel-length (150ish pages,) superhero shenanigans, and enough angst to keep my goblin emo spaghetti brain from protesting too much.
