Thought for the day: Beware of quick fixes, because temporary solutions have a tendency to become permanent.

Meme from lizbee:
Give me the title of a story I've never written, and feedback telling me what you liked best about it, and I will tell you any of: the first sentence, the last sentence, the thing that made me want to write it, the biggest problem I had while writing it, why it almost never got posted, the scene that hit the cutting room floor but that I wish I'd been able to salvage, or something else that I want readers to know.

I've now answered the fiction meme questions on LJ and on Dreamwidth.

Gacked from settiai:
Inspired by Doctor Who's "Turn Left:" Pick one of my stories and tell me a point in the tale that you'd change. Something tiny (e.g. "and then Fay chose silver glitter instead of gold") or big (e.g. "and then Rose was arrested instead of Jack") and I'll tell you how that one difference would have altered the course of the entire story.

My fic is on my website

If there is one person or more on your friends list who makes your world a better place just because they exist and who you would not have met (in real life or not) without the internet, then post this same sentence in your journal.

As izhilzha said, more than one.

Snagged from everyone.

Everyone seems to be doing this, and, hey, it actually worked for me in Firefox! These things are usually written such that they only work for IE users on MS-Windows.
So here are all the countries I've been to.

I didn't put in Singapore because I've only been to its international airport, so I don't think that counts.

In other news, I have been reading ST:XI fic. And clutching a hot water bottle.
