Now I'm not really a writer but I'm reading the Alan Wake novelisation and the author's incessant need to constantly use "said <character>" is driving me batshit.

For example (yes it's a pic of my e-reader, shush)

Alice and Alan are the only two people in this location. We don't need the "said" to understand that it's Alice replying to him.

He's talking on the phone!! Stop with the "said" on every line!! The reader understands that it's a dialogue between Alan and Barry!!

Notes:

Fantastic capture of this incredibly immersive and beautiful production. there is a bar in the bottom right corner of the screen that doesn't take away except for one moment where Gandalf and Frodo are talking on the stairs in act one, but overall I worked around it and you can always see Frodo and sometimes Gandalf. At points people are in the audience and I wasn't able to capture them but you can always hear them and I do my best to always try to make sure to capture anything in the audience that I could. Some washout and shakiness throughout.

The first episode of the Star Wars inspired cartoon Ewoks premiered on September 7, 1985. The series, along with the similarly Star Wars inspired Droids, was one of the most expensively produced cartoons in the 1980's. The events of the series took place before their introduction in Star Wars Episode VI Return of the Jedi. While the main character Wicket was played by Warwick Davis in ROTJ, he was voiced by Jim Henshaw (and Denny Delk in the second season) in the cartoon. The first episode featured the Tulga Witch Morga (Jackie Burroughs) plans to burn down the forest on the Endor moon. The episode featured other RTOJ characters Chief Chirpa (movie Jane Busby/ cartoon George Buza/Rick Cimino), Teebo (movie Jack Purvis/ cartoon Eric Peterson/James Cranna) and Logray (movie Mike Edmonds /cartoon Douglas Chamberlain). The series introduced new characters such as Aunt Bozzie (Pam Hyatt), Deej (Richard Donat), Dulok Shaman (Don Francks), Hoom (John Stocker), King Gorneesh (Dan Hennessey), Kneesa (Cree Summer/Jeanne Reynolds), Latara (Taborah Johnson/Sue Murphy), Malani (Alyson Court), Paploo (Paul Chato), Punt (Rob Cowan), Shodu (Esther Scott), Urgah (Melleny Melody), Weechee (Greg Swanson), Willy (John Stocker), and Winda (Leanne Coppen).

SR-71 pilot recalls when he set 13 acres of Maryland on fire by dumping fuel after one engine exploded during his last Blackbird flight

The SR-71 Blackbird

In the 1960’s, the US Air Force (USAF) developed the SR-71 Blackbird, a plane that could travel more than 3 times as fast as the sound produced by its own engines.

Throughout its nearly 24-year career, the SR-71 spy plane remained the world’s fastest and highest-flying operational aircraft. Flying at Mach 3+ from 80,000 feet, it could survey 100,000 square miles of Earth’s surface per hour. And in the off chance an enemy tried to shoot it down with a missile, all the Blackbird had to do was speed up and outrun it.

SR-71 T-Shirts

CLICK HERE to see The Aviation Geek Club contributor Linda Sheffield’s T-shirt designs! Linda has a personal relationship with the SR-71 because her father Butch Sheffield flew the Blackbird from test flight in 1965 until 1973. Butch’s Granddaughter’s Lisa Burroughs and Susan Miller are graphic designers. They designed most of the merchandise that is for sale on Threadless. A percentage of the profits go to Flight Test Museum at Edwards Air Force Base. This nonprofit charity is personal to the Sheffield family because they are raising money to house SR-71, #955. This was the first Blackbird that Butch Sheffield flew on Oct. 4, 1965.

Its engineering was so cutting edge that even the tools to build the SR-71 needed to be designed from scratch.

What it’s like to fly the world’s fastest plane

Spencer Hall interviewed for SBNation former SR-71 Blackbird pilot Rick McCrary about what it’s like to fly the world’s fastest plane.

McCrary explained;

‘You waddle out there in your spacesuit, carrying your little cooler because it gets quite hot in that spacesuit. You go out to a van with some La-Z-Boys in it, these big recliners, and they drive you out to the airplane. It’s sitting there with all the cables hooked up to it, just like a space launch. It’s outgassing stuff, people are checking it, and then people start unhooking it and leaving and then it’s just you and the crew chief. You get into the seat, close the hatch, and you’re in your cocoon.

‘Startup was also a unique thing. It had this special fuel, because the temperatures during flight got up to over 600 degrees Fahrenheit when you’re at speed. The worry is that normal fuel, which you want to explode quickly during flight and have a low flashpoint, well…you wanted the exact opposite with the Blackbird. You’re carrying so much fuel that the last thing you want to worry about is it self-igniting.

A Boeing KC-135Q Stratotanker refueling an SR-71

‘You’d burn 80,000 pounds of fuel in about an hour and twenty minutes. That’s a lot of gas. You’re on the boom a lot, and that was why in-flight refueling experience was such a critical part of the screening process. You didn’t have a lot of time to do it, and you had to get it right the first time. Three refuelings was common, but on longer missions you’d refuel six or eight times. Those were long days.

Last flight on the SR-71 Blackbird

‘You’d light up the afterburner right after that first refueling, and take it to full power for the next hour. That’s pretty amazing, because no other plane can fly in full afterburner continuously. All other planes have either a three minute limit, or five minute limit on that, but you’d be going at full afterburner for an hour, hour and a half.’

When Hall asked McCrary if he remembered when his last SR-71 Blackbird flight took place, he answered;

‘The answer is kind of an interesting yes and no. There came the time to move on, and we had a good deal. We got to take it to the National Air Show in Washington, DC and put it on display there. That was going to be our last flight.

Setting 13 acres of Maryland on fire during last flight on the SR-71 Blackbird

‘As we took off from there and came back around for a pass, the right engine exploded. We had to dump gas, and set about thirteen acres of Maryland on fire as we did that. That was kind of interesting, just spewing flaming fuel and titanium pieces around.’

McCrary explained that this wasn’t rural Maryland;

‘Actually, we were pointed at the White House out of Andrews Air Force Base. It was funny listening back to the voice tape because I start by saying “Well, we’ll go out over the bay here and dump this fuel.” About thirty seconds later I say “Screw it” and just dump it. We defoliated southern Maryland, but we got it back on the ground, which was great. After all that happened, I absolutely remember shutting it down. My legs started shaking uncontrollably with the adrenaline from it all when I knew it was over with. My co-pilot never flew again, either.’

do you have any headcanons about Rick and Evy’s life with eachother? Just, y’know, things they eat for breakfast and date activities type things 😁

Oh I wish! I'm so amazed with all the wonderful situations that you fanfic authors dream up 💕

Alas I'm still possessed by my Eldritch Muse plotting out my Tarzan novel. But! I only have another two chapters to write, and I know exactly what will be in them so that shouldn't take to long. After that I can finally let go of the Burroughs voice I'm desperate clinging to and will be free to explore other characters, situations and stories 💕

Storia Di Musica #290 - Steely Dan, Gaucho, 1980

Devo ammettere che la fine di questo percorso sulle storie musicali alla ricerca del suono perfetto non poteva che fermarsi a questi due. Che in un decennio dove nella musica sono successe infinite cose, gli anni ’70, sono passati tranquilli e inscalfibili a diffondere qualcosa di completamente diverso. E per molti versi inclassificabile. Walter Becker e Donald Fagen sono probabilmente i musicisti più maniacali, quasi in senso patologico, che io conosca nella storia della musica pop occidentale. Siamo davvero ad una sorta di mania di perfezionismo che nasce in un momento preciso. Infatti i loro Steely Dan (dal nome di un dildo meccanico a vapore citato da William Burroughs ne Il Pasto Nudo) all’inizio erano un gruppo, formato dal duo (che sanno fare tutto, ma si dividono tra voci e chitarra) con Denny Dias insieme a Jim Holder alla batteria, Jeff Baxter alla seconda chitarra, e David Palmer. Il loro esordio è già fenomenale: Can’t Buy A Thrill (1972) vola subito nella Top 20 e frutta due canzone mito degli anni ’70 come Do It Again e Reeling The Wheel. Già è presente il mix, a tratti soprannaturale, di stili, un pop venato di jazz, rock, soul, fatto di sovrapposizioni di strumenti, intrecci vocali, perfezione esecutiva a cui sia accompagna una ironia sfacciata nei testi. Con Pretzel Logic, del 1974, un capolavoro, hanno addirittura una hit single, nella perfetta Rikki Don’t Lose That Number (omaggio a Horace Silver, grande jazzista), ma durante il tour che segue Fagen ha un attacco di panico sul palco e decide di non esibirsi più. La decisione successiva è di sciogliere il gruppo, di diventare un duo e per compensare il mancato contatto con il pubblico, quello di scrivere canzoni perfette. Una perfezione esecutiva, compositiva e di registrazione, diventando in questi tre rispettivi campi dei punti di riferimento assoluti. Decidono quindi di chiedere servizi ai più bravi e famosi sessionisti in tutto il mondo, di usare il meglio della tecnologia e di cercare la perfezione sonora. Già con Aja, del 1977, toccano vette assolute, ma i due attraversano un periodaccio. Quando iniziano a pensare al nuovo disco Becker viene investito sotto casa, nell’Upper East Side, e si frattura diverse ossa e passa settimane in ospedale, ma ha voglia di non perdere tempo, tanto che sviluppano le idee del disco e della sua evoluzione via telefono con Fagen (tuttavia non suona in molti brani dell'album). Tra l’altro, la sua fidanzata, Karen Roberta Stanley morirà per complicazioni dell’abuso di stupefacenti, appena finite le registrazioni del nuovo disco. La famiglia della ragazza, accusando Becker di esserne stato l’iniziatore, chiese un risarcimento da milioni di dollari, ma una sentenza di qualche anno più tardi scagionò il musicista. Tutto questo non impedì che per Gaucho, che esce nei negozi di dischi il 21 Novembre del 1980, abbiano fatto ruotare nei soli 7 brani 62 musicisti, tra i più famosi del mondo, tra batteristi, chitarristi, percussionisti, sassofonisti, coristi e ben 11 ingegneri del suono.

Basta dire che fecero provare per ore Bernard Purdie, leggenda vivente del jazz e inventore del Purdie Shuffle (terzine nel tempo tagliato) le sue parti nei brani. Tutti i batteristi, tra i più grandi di sempre (ricordo Steve Gadd, Jeff Porcaro dei Toto, Rick Marotta e altri ancora) passarono ore a provare il tocco che volevano quei due, che non contenti chiesero a Roger Nichols, uno dei più grandi ingegneri del suono americani, di creare una drum machine particolare che li aiutasse: con un investimento di 150 mila dollari (una follia per l’epoca) Nichols portò loro Wendel, che per quanto fosse il massimo di sofisticatezza del tempo, per difficoltà nella programmazione fu usata pochissimo. Ma c’è un particolare simpatico: quando l’album divenne disco di platino, un disco celebrativo fu regalato persino a Wendel in quanto “artefice” del successo. Chi altro poteva chiedere a Mark Knofler, in quei mesi il chitarrista più famoso del mondo per quel pezzo leggendario che fu Sultans Of Swing, di provare ore intere un assolo da 40 secondi per Time Out Of MInd? O chi poteva pensare di passare per 55 tentativi prima di centrare la voluta dissolvenza finale di Babylon Sisters?

Tutte le canzoni sono dei gioielli in un disco che racconta di hipster un po’ in là con gli anni in cerca di divertimento: Babylon Sisters ne è l’essenza, quasi a disegnare un sogno californiano che finisce a bere un kirschwasser from a shell; oppure la famosissima Hey Nineteen (che si dice fosse piaciuta tantissimo a John Belushi che ne voleva fare un soggetto per un film) dove un attempato conquistatore rimane basito che la sua nuova conquista diciannovenne non conosca Aretha Frankiln (Hey Nineteen/ That’s ‘Retha Franklin/ She don’t remember the Queen of Soul/ It’s hard times befallen/ The sole survivors/ She thinks I’m crazy/ But I’m just growing old), in una sorta di incomunicabilità generazionale (No, we got nothin’ common/ No, we can’t dance together/ No, we can’t talk at all) e che finisce in una probabile ritiro tra Cuervo Gold (una famosa marca di tequila), Fine Colombian (che non è cioccolato bianco) e Make tonight a wonderful thing tra il sibillino e una solitaria sconfitta sentimentale. Glamour Profession racconta la vita scintillante di uno spacciatore, raccontata con dovizia di particolari; Gaucho, altro classico, una storia d’amore gay mandata in frantumi da un gigolò che veste i panni bizzarri di un gaucho, un uomo in spangled leather poncho che riesce a distruggere la quiete domestica della coppia entrando dentro la loro preziosa dimora, la leggendaria custerdome (uno dei luoghi steelydaniani per eccellenza, che non ha una traduzione letterale soddisfacente) e fu scritta pensando a Long As You Know You're Living Yours di Keith Jarrett, dal suo disco del 1974, Belonging. Jarrett ottenne il riconoscimento come autore e il relativo pagamento di diritti d’autore (nelle moderne ristampe compare come autore del brano). Time Out Of Mind è probabilmente il racconto di un primo racconto con l’eroina, a inseguire “dragoni” fino a Lhasa. My Rival è la storia intrigante di un tradimento, ma visto attraverso gli occhi di un investigatore privato con l’apparecchio acustico (He’s got a scar across his face/ He wears a hearing aid) sulle tracce di qualcuno da smascherare (Sure, he’s a jolly roger/ Until he answers for his crimes/ Yes, I’ll match him whim for whim now). E l’ultima canzone è un altro colpo da KO: Third World Man è un'accusa niente affatto sottintesa al falso interesse per le questioni sociali dei paesi in via di sviluppo, che ha perfino un verso cantato in italiano da Fagen (è l’era del terzo mondo, scritto con Victor di Suvero, poeta italiano naturalizzato americano) e ha l’ultima pazzia: l’assolo, meraviglioso, di Larry Carlton fu ripescato dalle registrazione di The Royal Scam (del 1976) e ricostruito per quella canzone, tanto che Carlton nemmeno sapeva fosse presente nei crediti del disco. Sulla musica di questi brani, lascio a voi scoprire tutte le meraviglie sonore, di ricercatezza, gli effetti da sentire e risentire, ma molti se ne accorsero presto, perché vinse il Grammy Award del 1981 per la migliore registrazione non classica. Dopo tutto questo, gli Steely Dan si sciolgono. Fanno in tempo a scrivere, a nome solo di Fagen, quell’altro capolavoro che è The Nightfly (1982, con la copertina più bella di tutti i tempi – andatela a vedere) e a ritornare, dopo 21 anni, con Two Against Nature che, come potrebbe raccontare un testo delle loro canzoni perfette, li fa conoscere ad una nuova e giovane generazione, ammaliata da quel tocco incredibile che la leggendaria rivista jazz Downbeat una volta descrisse così: Non c’è nulla che suona così bene come un disco degli Steely Dan.

Resenha: Blade Runner - O Caçador de Androides (1982)

Categoria: Filmes Gênero: Ficção Científica / Fantasia

Blade Runner - O Caçador de Androides (Blade Runner, EUA, 1982) Direção Ridley Scott. Com Harrison Ford, Rutger Hauer, Sean Young, Daryl Hannah, Joanna Cassidy, Edward James Olmos.

O MAIOR CULT DE TODOS OS TEMPOS?

Los Angeles, 2019. Androides rebelados retornam à Terra em busca de seu criador, na esperança de que este possa responder seus dilemas existenciais. Programados com data de validade pré-ajustada de fábrica - para evitar que desenvolvam emoções e se torne impossível diferenciá-los dos humanos - eles buscam um modo de reverter o processo e ganhar um tempo maior de vida, além dos 4 anos programados. Contra sua vontade, um ex-policial é chamado de volta à ativa para dar cabo das criaturas.

A fantasia futurista sombria, com seu visual cool e implicações filosóficas foi a primeira produção do gênero a dar valor à uma história do alucinado escritor Philip K. Dick, obcecado por temas preciosos à ficção científica: simulação da vida em autômatos, percepção da realidade, abusos do uso de drogas e a busca do homem por Deus. O ponto de partida foi o livro "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?", que Dick publicou em 1968, mas o termo "Blade Runner" veio da obra de William S. Burroughs. David Peoples esmiuçou os antigos rascunhos e criou um roteiro em que temas desconcertantes são tratados com a inteligência necessária para se colocar a história acima de efeitos especiais e cenas de ação gratuitas. Em "Blade Runner", nada é irrelevante. Apesar da discórdia entre os que preferem a versão original com seus off narrativos e o happy end (eu me incluo entre eles), e os que preferem a "Director's cut" sem narração e com seu final abrupto e econômico, todos são unânimes em afirmar: o filme foi um divisor de águas, um marco da ficção científica.

"MAIS HUMANO DO QUE UM HUMANO"

Os cartazes da época do lançamento nos cinemas diziam: "O homem criou o homem à sua imagem e semelhança. Agora o problema é seu". A Tyrrel Corporation, gigante no ramo da robótica chega ao ápice da engenharia genética com a geração Nexus 6: androides mais ágeis, mais fortes e tão humanos que só um aparelho de meditação de pupila pode identificá-los através de perguntas-chave. "Mais humanos do que um humano", é o lema da empresa, mas os androides, conhecidos como "replicantes", foram declarados ilegais na Terra e esquadrões especiais de polícia - as unidades Blade Runner - tinham ordens para matá-los. Um grupo de Nexus 6 desafia a lei em busca do criador, mas o criador aqui é imperfeito, incapaz de responder as questões que esbarram nos limites da ciência e da engenharia genética que os gerou. O processo que define suas datas de validade é irreversível.

A direção de Ridley Scott joga com a dualidade entre o Bem e o Mal, bandidos e mocinhos. Quem é quem, na verdade, o filme não define: o policial que atira numa replicante pelas costas ou o vilão que em seu último sopro de vida busca a redenção salvando a vida de seu perseguidor? Rick Deckard, interpretado por um Harrison Ford cínico e mal humorado (devido às inúmeras desavenças com o diretor Scott e às pressões dos produtores, provavelmente) é o anti-herói em crise de consciência, Sean Young é Rachel, boneca de porcelena com lábios vermelhos e implantes de memória - um novo avanço da Tyrrell Corporation, sem data de validade - e Rutger Hauer se consagrou como o perverso Roy Batty, dono das melhores frases do filme, inclusive o discurso final que todo fã que se preza sabe de cor.

A visão desoladora de uma Los Angeles caótica, superpovoada, miscigenada, com seus arranha-céus de 400 andares, mergulhada nas cinzas da hecatombe nuclear que escureceu o céu e é responsável pela constante chuva ácida, dos anúncios de neon, do jogo de luzes contrastando com as sombras dos prédios e dos vapores que escapam dos bueiros, compõem um cenário pessimista do futuro e que se tornaria referência no gênero desde então, mas que por sua vez é inspirado no comic book de Dan O'Bannon e Jean Giraud de 1976, The Long Tomorrow. O visual retrô de alguns personagens e a herança noir da história disfarçada em investigação policial (acentuada ainda mais pela narração em off da versão original) entram em choque com a modernidade imposta pelas maravilhas futuristas: dirigíveis com telões conclamando a população a abandonar a Terra e tentar a vida em colônias em outros planetas, automóveis que voam, videofones e engenhocas sofisticadas como o scanner em 3D e o infalível aparelho de detecção Voight-Kampf.

"LÁGRIMAS NA CHUVA"

Repleto de implicações filosóficas e dando margens a diversas interpretações individuais (a mais polêmica é se Deckard seria ou não um replicante, sugerido pela simbólica imagem do unicórnio inserida na versão do diretor, de 1992), o filme não teria se tornado o cult que é hoje se não fossem os talentos envolvidos na sua concepção. A começar pela perseverança do produtor Michael Deeley que percebeu as potencialidades contidas na história, os roteiristas Hampton Fancher (responsável pelo primeiro script) e David Peoples (que deu forma definitiva e criou o termo "replicante") e o visionário diretor de "Alien - O Oitavo Passageiro", Ridley Scott, que utilizou toda a sua experiência como publicitário na composição do visual deslumbrante do filme. Juntam-se a eles o designer futurista Syd Mead ("Tron - Uma Odisseia Eletrônica"), o competente diretor de fotografia Jordan Cronenweth (falecido em 1996), o mestre em efeitos visuais Douglas Trumbull (responsável pelos revolucionários truques de "2001 - Uma Odisseia no Espaço") e o músico Vangelis, autor de uma trilha sonora que se tornou antológica, ao mesmo tempo intimista e dinâmica, conservadora e moderna. "Blade Runner - O Caçador de Androides" é uma experiência única no cinema.

RIDLEY SCOTT FILMOGRAFIA:

Ridley Scott é natural de South Shields, Durham, Inglaterra. Nascem em 30 de novembro de 1937. Em meados de 1960 Ridley Scott trabalhou para a BBC como designer de cenário, uma experiência que influenciou em muito seu trabalho subsequente como diretor. Scott logo passou a diretor de TV, trabalhando em episódios de séries como "Z Cars" e "The Informer". Em 1967, ele deixou a BBC e passou a maior parte de seus dez anos seguintes fazendo centenas de comerciais de TV através de sua produtora de comercias, RSA (Ridley Scott Associates). Scot levou um total de 5 anos desde a concepção até o financiamento e a produção de seu primeiro filme, "Os Duelistas (1977)". O trabalho seguinte de Scott foi o thriller de ficção científica "Alien, O Oitavo Passageiro" (1979), um grande sucesso de bilheteria. Scott posteriormente obteve grande sucesso crítico e comercial com "Thelma & Louise", mas a consagração viria apenas em 2000, com "Gladiador".

In order to protect the reputation of the American space program, a team of NASA administrators turn the first Mars mission into a phony Mars landing. Under threat of harm to their families the astronauts play their part in the deception on a staged set in a deserted military base. But once the real ship returns to Earth and burns up on re-entry, the astronauts become liabilities. Now, with the help of a crusading reporter, they must battle a sinister conspiracy that will stop at nothing to keep the truth hidden. Credits: TheMovieDb.

Connell Title Designer: Dan Perri Movie Reviews: John Chard: It’s a pleasure alright, and I don’t feel guilty about it at all!. A NASA space mission up to Mars fails to get off the ground due to major technical problems. Fearing funding could be taken away and wishing to avoid embarrassment, the powers that be decide to do a fake landing in a studio. With the astronauts forced to pretend that they are actually up on Mars, and fighting with their own personal belief systems, the government executives in charge fear that the fake flight could come to light. Upon learning that the outside world actually thinks they crashed upon reentering the earths atmosphere, the astronauts run for their lives knowing that the government can’t afford for the men to stay alive. Capricorn One is an excellent conspiracy picture that sadly seems to have been largely forgotten. Even today we are still hearing mooted stories of the landing on the moon actually being fake, so here director and writer Peter Hyams takes it and crafts a thrillingly taut piece of work. At the films heart is Elliot Gould’s (his great 70s work under valued) intrepid journalist, Robert Caulfield, after being nudged in the ribs by one of his friends at NASA, is himself under threat of death from shadowy government types who will think of nothing to offing him along with the astronauts. The film is split into two very significant halves, the first half is the set up, the conversations before and after the fake landing are clever and crucially attention grabbing, and of course we get to know our characters with the right amount of time. The film then shifts for the second half into a quality thriller chase movie, our main protagonists pursued by the government assassins courtesy of two gun toting helicopters. Jerry Goldsmith’s score brilliantly becoming part of the chase sequences, making the helicopters seem like death stalking machines operated by no man alone. We even get Telly Savalas joi...

Ouf...I'm so new in the game that I only have a few works, so I'm going to have to choose chapters instead of fics.

1, The chapter Surrender, of my longfic Tarzan and Jane, because it feels the truest to the original work, while also containing possibly the hottest piece of smut I've written, in spite of (or possibly because of) 2,5 pages of foreplay where the characters do not even touch 😆

2, The chapter Faction where the Greystokes and the Tenningtons get to go to a Thursday night with the Bloomsbury group. It required so much research and I'm very pleased with how all their voices and personalities came through. Writing a super flirty Virginia Woolf was a delight!

3, Probably Faction again, because the research was so much fun, and I just love that ragtag team of polyamorous bisexual avantgarde intellectuals.

4, how do you judge popularity? Number of Kudos and comments? Kudos per visits? Of course the longfic I spent five months updating weekly has the most Kudos and comments, but A Discourse of Discord (my beginning of what might just become a Mummy longfic -or more likely a collection of snapshots) immediately got the most Kudos per visits. 

5, My one-shot exploration of Tarzan and Queen Nemone Dreamweave. It is a silly weave between Burroughs' original work and my words, but that sucker needed writing because Tarzan and the City of Gold is hella sensual. Deserves at least one Kudos methinks.

6, Difficult question. It's a tie between the first and last chapter of Tarzan and Jane. The first because that's the chapter where my Muse moved in and just started writing: crazily, passionately and with fervor. My first novel wouldn't exist if that hadn't happened. The last because it tied everything together, was a sugar coated slice of happiness, and meant that I had completed a full novel: one that not only met, but far exceeded, my own expectations.

7, the next snap-shot of my Mummy work. Just haven't decided how long I will make it, and whether or not to include smut. I will get there eventually but I feel like I need to get used to writing Rick and Evy a bit more before I take them there. I feel like they have their own unique flavor of sexy, and I need to get a break from T&J (and the Tenningtons as well, for that matter) before I go there.

Bonus: Another tie, between @tinydooms ' The Ghost in the Trees, the only Tarzan fic out there really worth your time - which set me off on a delightful rabbit hole into the Mummy fandom, (without which I wouldn't be on Tumblr and wouldn't have gotten in contact with a bunch of lovely people), and @belphegor1982 's One Step, Two Step, Waltz because it is the perfect mix of everything I enjoy in literature (period drama, witty and delightful turns of phrases -cannot press enough just how talented her writing is- steamy consensual smut, care and companionship)

Fic writers let's get some positivity and self-love up in here! It's easy to think you're not a good enough writer to recommend your work, but you are!
