corilannam* Got my ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
merlin_holidays assignment! I'm very excited and have already started writing a bit, though I have a ton of research to do before I can get too far into the plot. But it's going to be fun, I hope.
* I'm also scribbling away at two fics for round 1 of![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
marguerite_26 and novemberlite's Kinkspiration Challenge. Am sincerely hoping I don't somehow drop dead with this notebook open somewhere; would be harder to explain than usual.
* Duran Duran News! John Taylor is publishing his autobiography. It's due out next fall. Needless to say, I will be pre-ordering that shit.
John's description: “This book recounts the million tiny seductions that are required to make the journey from English suburbia to selling out Madison Square Garden—seductions that go by a hundred different names; family, friendship, romances, collaborations and strategic alliances. Here is my journey and where it took me; into fantastic success, more than a little decadence, darkness, and finally, I like to think, a little enlightenment.”
Maybe it'll finally push me to finish the last Questioning story.

Except Tears for Fears. They were not fun at all.

Date: 2011-10-04 09:37 pm (UTC)lol! Whenever it I think about someone finding my writing, I think of the book 'Do Black Patent Leather Shoes Really Reflect Up'. The main character - a young catholic boy - had dirty pictures in his wallet and, to play it safe just in case he got hit by a car, with the pictures he kept a letter, to his cousin (IIRC), telling him off for daring to send him this sort of filth! XD

Every time they mention it I think I NEED ONE OF THESE! lol The alarm sound is even on their website. http://www.wmmr.com/shows/preston-and-steve/blogentry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10057836

You sign up because it's fun and taking part is what counts!
Exchange fests are awesome though. Yuletide will always be my favourite but there should be a Merlin one. I would love for their to be one. (I didn't sign up for
But yes, Merlin fest! I can't imagine that it wouldn't be popular. :)
