The first episode is up!! Yay! It got finished and posted on time!

I have to admit through - am in shock - I have now written an episode for a virtual season...

LOL - if you're interested in seeing a AU series which breaks off of Stargate Atlantis canon after 'The Game' head on over to sg_pegasus and take a look at the opening episode, Bellerphon falling.

Happy Mother's Day to all whom are celebrating today

I do have to admit however - I had a mild panic in the week until I remembered that I did give my mum a mother's day present this year - the whole different days in different place thing confuses me every now and then *g*

In other news - am presently seated on my bed in the flat, surrounding by books about the environment and glaciation. I really hate revising. I also really wish I had my notes from my Geology days - as they would kind of help. However - I plan to spend at least another hour or so avoiding and watching Veronica Mars instead (I have just starting watching this show - so am presently progressing through season 1). I am a very bad girl. :D

Exams Tuesday and Thursday this week - oooo the stress *bangs head* - so progress on the fics may be slim - however progress was made last night so yay!
Also - am expecting my hand to drop off after the first three hour exam - the trouble with doing everything else by computer these days *g* we don't even have the option of writing assignments by hand. *shrugs* Oh well.

So I may be on the verge of crawling out of the pretty hole I found myself in after writing Equilibrium - on this, the sixth rewrite of the beginning of the next fic, which is completely different from the previous attempts. So, hopefully, at some point this year, there will be more of that series appearing, and when that happens, I will be posting the touched up versions of the previous four before hand, so when they appear, take it as a sign.
I considered doing a sequel to another of my old fics, but in all honesty, both of the ones that sequels have been suggested for were written in High school and that was a long time ago and my writing is not the same.

The epic Carson/Daniel is coming along, through I keep having to delete things/remind myself that I can tell things through carson's perspective as well - I'm just so damned scared he'll come out all OCC. *head desk* But I am hopeful.

am battling my way through writing my present fic - against the awkwardness - which under other circumstances would be bad, but in these particular circumstances its not, because at the present stage in the fic, its all about awkwardness and regrets, which makes it damn difficult to write, but at the same time, i think it'll be worth it in the end, once i've gotten to the where its going, which is a very good place. lol.
am also battling my way through my latest assignment - which in all honesty - seems to be getting harder instead of easier :S - this would be why i don't like doing group work the way we've been asked to do it. Luckily it's almost over!!
Also - less than a week until the A Dog's Breakfast screening!! SQUEE!! And then - the con. *bounces*
Now - back to work.

this is what happens when i go hunting for Doctor Who fan fiction online. I start spotting the american writers, and blinking in slight confusion at the things that appear from time to time. It happens when i'm readin SGA fics with Carson in as well through, when people over accent or they write him with what could be a welsh, irish or cornish accent, but not scottish. Hell there was one that Carson's speech reminded me of when i was struggling through the accent in 'the secret garden' back in primary school (i got a little cocky, thinking i'd understand it easily. *head desk*), this is a very scary thing *nods*.
But then i keep getting thrown by my american lecturer whenever he refers to the west country as the south-west peninsular, which i guess is a very british thing to get confused by - lol.
The odd thing is, torchwood fic doesn't seem to carry the same issues as the doctor who ones, or at least, not that i've seen so far.
the thing that confused me most today was someone's use of teacakes...that were being handed out and put in people's pockets. *blinks* i love teacakes, but i would never put one in my pocket. Hell most won't fit. *pauses, getting the sudden urge to have a teacake, all hot and buttery....* It's not a big thing, not even a huge thing, and it doesn't effect the fic at all, it just throws me for a second as i try to figure out the logistics in my head.
not being american however - i don't know if there are similar moments when peeps like me try to write things set in america involving american people - i can only really comment on what i know myself!!
also - am slightly depressed, having failed to find cheeselets ANYWHERE (xmas without Cheeselets - it's wrong!) and as i had my contract at work extended, but it's only two weeks, and i'm going home at the beginning of those two weeks, so i have to decline the offer, (or get fired for being a pain in the ass) and am really really really nervous and guilty about it *sighs* am useless, but i want to see the mob again. Especially now that a certain husky puppy had taken it upon herself to start barking at the phone everytime i phone and seemingly at no other point.
Oh well such is life. lol.

Am working on it - don't worry - am also trying to satisfy a new, short bunny, but there's a dire lack of any kind of timeline connecting SG-1 to Atlantis, so i'm having to do a little more work before i'll be happy with that short bit. I have all of tomorrow free, so more work will be done then too.
It's been a v v long week. I need sleep!! lol.
Meanwhile, back to the guessing on timeline issues, and looking forward to tomorrows episode of torchwood!!! Small Worlds!
Also - JB was on Jonathon Ross last night. Scottish accent. Phones his parents about everything. Such a sweet sweet man!

Damn you thomas, you interrupted the flow! - lol. 'The kindness of strangers' is in progress so hopefully *fingers crossed* it will be finished and then the Doctor Who muse will let me get on with one of the other fics. lol.
Also - job interview tomo - lol.
Sooo have to remember to not be online when i'm writing. lol.

Have way too many fic ideas (and yes, i am ignoring all of the fuss over Stargate being cancelled - it's hard to decide whether to fight for it or to accept it - cos, yeah, 10 years? Wow. It's a long time and a lot has happened, and you gotta wonder if they can keep going much longer and retain quality without a break. Maybe, films instead of TV? Dunno) and way too little time to write them in - partly due to being on the dig, and partly cos, i can't even write at the moment. Typing slightly better. But, troweling? Kills the hands. All the muscles have gone all stiff and stubborn. Dang it.
Also - have finally found the bottom of my ditch section! Natural Chalk! Woohoo!! lol. Yup. Am offically insane.
