Be prepared
Jan. 13th, 2007 10:14 pmI went over to Unit B today, found a new (to me) McManus fic. It was very nice. I only wish there was more. A lot more. And in some ways that I didn't have to write it, but that aside, there will probably be more than a few McManus-themed fics surfacing on this page in the next few months. Read them or not. I know he's not everyone's cup of tea. Suggestions are welcome.
I had a really strange yen to play with some original fic too, actually toss characters from one of my scripts out into the universe in prose form. It may have been an overload of L.A. Confidential slash I was reading (since my script began by thinking "what if all the slashy subtext in L.A. Confidential was just made text?") And I love that script more than anything else I've written. I've often thought about making it a romantic trilogy. In my head, it's called "The Great Queer 'Casablanca'". (Yes, I have no ego, none at all, really.)
I took the Christmas tree down. It was a bit silly to put it up in the first place because I almost immediately wanted to put it away. This Christmas season didn't really mean anything to me which is a bit sad, but maybe it's just one of those things that evolves over time. I'm also going to do my annual purge of things that I don't have need for anymore as well as clean. It's nice having an extra day to do that.
