comics snerk

Just had a PS on the end of an email from someone buying some of my ebayed comics.

'This may seem a strange question but, Isn't Heather a woman's name? If
it is this is the first time a buy comic from a woman.'

Apparently my comic shop is an oddity, having at least 1/4 customers of the feminine variety. Apparently the fact that it also sells all manner of fantasy gaming stuff and manga and anime helps a lot. Girls get drawn in whilst squeeing over their manga. Which reminds me, Eroica is due to be published in translated version by DC sometime soon...

:pummels dir fic that's been taking years I tell you, *years*: Honestly, I can bang out 50,000 words of plot, porn and dialogue in a month but can't do a two-page vignette.

20 Questions to a Better Personality

You are an SEDL--Sober Emotional Destructive Leader. This makes you a dictator. You prefer to control situations, and lack of control makes you physically sick. You feel have responsibility for everyone's welfare, and that you will be blamed when things go wrong. Things do go wrong, and you take it harder than you should.

You rely on the validation and support of others, but you have a secret distrust for people and distaste for their habits and weaknesses that make you keep your distance from them. This makes you very difficult to be with romantically. Still, a level-headed peacemaker can keep you balanced.

Despite your fierce temper and general hot-bloodedness, you have a soft spot for animals and a surprising passion for the arts. Sometimes you would almost rather live by your wits in the wilderness somewhere, if you could bring your books and your sketchbook.

You also have a strange, undeniable sexiness to you. You may go insane.

...surprisingly accurate, except for the third sentence.

Fic : Bacon Sandwiches in Oxford - Dark is Rising

Finally finished a fic I started back in August '02 and occasionally hound megolas with. Dark is Rising, Bran/Will.

One day I want to write fic that has a point. Or a big conclusion. I think the majority of my fic that isn't PWP that *has* a big event in it could really be described as 'Can we please get this out of the way so we can get back home? The Archers is due to start in an hour.'
