G – How long have you been in the fandom, and how has your attitude to the fandom changed in that time? When is the time that you are “legitimately” *in* the fandom? My first posts happened on tumblr, at the end of April 2012. Wow, six years – that’s an age… But the initial…
Hello, hello! How quickly ten days fly by when you are having fun. I am back from Spain – a little more tanned, and way more relaxed, despite a bit of work while there. We returned on a true red-eye flight on Thursday night and have a few more days until we head on to…
Did I say somewhere that I was going to spend all day today working on my tan, after finishing up that monster translation yesterday? Well, yeah… that was before an urgent proof-reading request for exam material came in. Luckily, it only took me 5 minutes to proof-read the corrections. And so I’ll quickly use my…
Before I launch into the latest shrine post, I would like to quickly apologise for my lack of replies to recent comments. I usually reply to every comment, but haven’t had the opportunity to do so in recent days. It’s not because I am on holiday – I have access to the internet through my…
Honestly, I don’t need to say more, do I? From Audible UK on IG. Not sure whether I can sleep tonight. PS: Have downloaded Lost Daughters. 3 chapters in and hooked! It’s an audiobook, but boy do I have visuals now!
and thus take one or two for the team. I mean, every time I am off and away on vacation, some major stuff happens. Ok, not counting silly shitstorms like the recent ‘Black Sunday (And Monday and Tuesday)’, but fabulous little gems such as this Audible trailer/interview/clip with Joy Ellis. I know you have seen…
I have arrived at destination. That’s what happens when you bring your laptop on holiday. I was working for two hours this morning – after getting green light from my mother and daughter who are lounging by the pool as we speak. But seeing that I have the laptop out already, I might as well…
Before I launch into question C, just a couple of links. Apart from the WordPress blogs that are taking part in the challenge, you can read more fan responses over on Blogspot on White Rose Writings. On tumblr, Ilaria/Eugeal has answered question A with an awesome photo set of her Guy collection, Abiwim has also…
First leg of the journey done, I arrived yesterday in Northern Germany. Boy, that was a rough landing… felt as if the pilot crashed the undercarriage of the plane. After my favourite food (white asparagus with smoked ham and new potatoes *waves at Servetus*) I am now sitting on the terrace. It’s considerably cooled down since…
Not forgoing *this* week’s round-up – especially as I know that I will be missing the next one while on holiday in Spain. It’s been a bit of a stretch, to be honest, compiling today’s round-up, as I was stressed out with tying up loose ends pre-holiday. As usual. You would think that I know…
Sorry for a double post today, but the first response to the fan challenge has been really good. Thank you for comments and tweets so far, as well as a reblog courtesy of Servetus. Servetus has also offered her blog for guest posts – what a great idea. So if you are a reader without…
It’s summer. It’s actually not silly season. Time for another fan challenge. Those are usually reserved for droughts, and with O8 now in full swing, it doesn’t seem the ideal time to do this. Or maybe it is, seeing that I am heading off on my holidays tomorrow, with less regular access to the blog. So I…
