It's a misery of an end-of-October day. Screw being responsible and doing work; I stayed up until 4AM last night re-reading old fandom favorites of mine, and man oh man. I'll never stop loving this by Diane Coffin and this by Cynthia Martin.

And is there anything even a smidgeon wrong with Wrong by [livejournal.com profile] billytaylor? And Close Quarters (1 2 3 4 5 6 7) oh WIP of my heart, one of only two WIPs that I love enough to follow across weeks and months and years if need be when I have problems sitting still through a single TV show even with all the commercials cut out. I have the attention span of somebody whose first memory of television is MTV and who grew up during the day of Windows multi-tasking, and yet I love this multi-chapter fic like burning and feel that if I someday write something half as rich and engrossing as "Close Quarters," my work as a writer will be done.

And oh this, which makes me squeal like the hopeless, hopeless, hopeless fangirl I am everytime I see it.

It's not schmoop, bitches. It's high fucking art. Don't make me break a bottle and come after you.

It's not just art. It's high fucking art. Jesus, every time I look at that picture of [livejournal.com profile] black_hound's, I get a grin on my face like the luckiest kid on Earth.

Actually... it's high before the fucking art if you want to get all technical about it. But yeah. It is a sight for sore eyes.

Schmoop. *G*

AHAHAHAHAH. But the fucking before the art emphasizes the fact that the high is applying to art. Would fucking high fucking art work better? :D

Man, I love those SW ones too. Such good Obi-Wan voices. Mmmm...*rereads* I love it when I stay up waaaay to late reading goodfic, because yes it's too late, but...it's goodfic. Good for the soul.

<3 your icon.

A good Obi-Wan voice = precious like jewels. It's a wonderfully feeling, sometimes, to start reading and then look up three hours later with a funny feeling in your neck and be like OMGGG WTF HOW IS IT 3AM.

Sometimes. But not always. XD

Your writing is ALREADY the epitome of rich and engrossing.

I'm practically haunting this site, just waiting for updates, and I'm about as patient as a rabid cat that's accidentally gone and eaten tiger balm. Does that tell you anything about the calibre of your writing?

I swear, one day when I have time-- i will get around to creating a little shrine dedicated to you and your fic. I could put little boats around it and label them, and little effigies of Bush and Hornblower. And offer them pineapples and mangoes. And mustard. With mutton. And rum. As a sacrifice. And a sign saying, all fall and worship quigonejinn, queen of hh fic.

I'm blushing like a little girl to be placed in the same league as those other distinguished fans, and by one such as yourself. I shall endeavour to live up to it. :o)

you too? I've been totally procrastinating work rereading old greats. or rather, going searching for three-year-old favorites (mostly of the Buffy/Angelverse, I'm ashamed to admit), only to find that their websites have mysteriously disappeared. oh well.

speaking of old great SW fic, you've probably seen this one tons of times before but I keep rereading crystallize by torch. it's a little slice of wintry unresolved-tension perfection.

Mmm. Buffyverse. The only fic I've ever read from there was a goodie -- the early parts of the Spike series by MustangSally and RivkaT. That was good stuff. Good, good, good stuff.

And Crystallize. Yeah. Awesome old piece. It took me a couple efforts to get into it becuase the beginning is a little slow, but man. It's so perfectly constructed and tightly constructed. Good stuff. :D
