My
fandom_stocking stocking got posted! It's here. The mod mistyped my name. (It's ExtraPenguin. If the E is caps, so is the P.) I am requesting Uplift, Memory of Water, Modao Zushi, and Guardian! I have actual prompts, instead of just a likes list!
Yesterday, I wrote a fic. Waters of Forgetfulness is ~500 words of G-rated mostly-gen, Modao Zushi, and features Yanling Daoren, Zangse Sanren, and Wei Changze. The summary is "Yanling Daoren drinks Meng Po's soup."
Today, I'll try to write one more Yuletide treat. The recip seems to have been under the impression that this was OR matching, instead of AND matching, so I had to scratch my head a bit to figure out how to get the extra characters present in a way that was ethical to tag, but I think I've got it now! I have 23 hours. It'll likely take me 5 at most. Let's hope this will stay under 5k.
I also have three books with me that I've yet to read. Two of them are short story collections titled "Invisible Planets"; one is collected works of Hannu Rajaniemi, another is Chinese SF translated and edited by Ken Liu. The third book is titled Floating Worlds, by Cecelia Holland; it's Solar System Space Opera involving a post-ecocatastrope Earth and politics. I have not read anything beyond the back cover text for any of them. The bookseller was very much reccing both the Ken Liu and the Cecelia Holland when I bought them way back when. Have any of you read any of them?
