Odds and Sods

This feels weird.

a) back on LJ (for god knows how long)
b) actually being in a writing mood
c) writing something I've never written before
d) not hardly remembering any of the lj shortcuts or cuts or formatting tricks at all

On with the show.

Obviously in desperate need of a beta/spellchecker/sanity checker

So far, Writerconuk can be summed up as:

Furniture 2 Kazzy_cee 0

And this is all before the cocktails.

1) Thank ningloreth, the rest of the committee and the hotel very much
2) actually book the hotel
3) pay for writercon
4) panic
5) panic some more
6) have some coffee to calm down
7) realise you've somehow bought decaf instead of the real stuff
8) START PACKING

Anyone still at writerconuk at the hotel in Coventry?

Looks like they've found my missing phone and intend to hand it into the hotel tonight. Wombat? Still around?

Update: lovely Wombat has picked it up for me. Thank you so much.

*huge sigh of relief*

There will be Eurovision snarking at writerconuk.

writerconuk peeps...

...seeya Friday.

I would like to go to writerconuk this year, but I'd feel like such a fraud considering I haven't written anything for ages.

I said I'd try and post more, didn't I?

*Epic fail*

But slowly, very very slowly, I seem to be edging back towards fic-dom-ness. One Brit-pick beta here, a volunteering for a ME3 ficlet beta there...

Mmmmm... Well, I certainly seem to be posting a bit more often than the last few months, but I'm not entirely sure I'll be up for stretching the fic writing muscles again quite so soon. Think of it as more of a (very) slow wake-up from hibernation. I think I burnt myself out bigtime when I did Terror Nova. :(

That, and the fact that my copy of Mass Effect 3 is in the post.
