Odds and Ends
8 Jun 2019 23:24I found a posting meme thing via ![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
fictional_fans that I might attempt!
In real life:
Summer, my least favorite season, has arrived. I hate the heat. It was +30°C already. A friend of mine came to visit and we wandered around a bit. We mostly got eaten by mosquitoes. He was interested in what I do during my free time nowadays (since he's also suddenly magically acquired more free time), so I mentioned fandom, and he asked which ones. I copped to Guardian and sent him the link to the YouTube playlist. *g* Let's see what his thoughts are, if any. He's been warned on the varying quality of the subtitles, and I told him it's 40 45-min episodes of science fiction, but nothing else, since I want him to go in with an open mind and form his own conclusions.
During that, we found the nearest beach and also came across a Thai fast food restaurant near it. I didn't have my wallet with me so I didn't have the chance to try it, but I'll have to go there some day.
In fandom:
I posted the penultimate chapter of From Ashes of Sunlight! Wei Wuxian has gotten together with [SPOILERS] and a bunch of people are happy at how it turned out. I still have a few more Chekhov's guns to fire, but that's what next chapter is for. Even with one chapter missing, it is 38k and the longest thing I've ever written. Next chapter will turn it into a novel!
In my other fandom, spaceship rental features Zhao Yunlan having dramatic emotional whiplash and Shen Wei having a silent internal crisis. This will definitely be over 20k; it might be 30k when it's done. (Currently I have 7k of extremely nonlinearly written stuff.) I hope it won't be too long so that I can get it done at some point! *g*
