Back to life, back to reality... as I gather myself and work on fic to post here, a few links and a twinned meme from thistlerose.

Above The Cut: an analysis of Unstoppable as an Allegory for BJ Etiquette that starts with The Bulge and continues henceforth, 'Blurring Gender Lines in Fandom' recs (of genderswap, sexswap, crossdressing and transgender fics) and Sherlock BBC recs from MJ panels, and A NUMB3RS AU which my roommate photographed at the Worcester Art Museum.

Below the cut: ( two memes )

I was going to stay up till midnight so this would be posted tomorrow, but I'm groggy. Anyway, this is going around, and I thought, why not?

Pick a passage from my stories, up to 500 words, from anything I've written in this journal, and comment to this post with that selection (including a link to the story being excerpted). I will then give you a DVD commentary on that snippet: what I was thinking when I wrote it, why I wrote it in the first place, what's going on in the character's heads, why I chose certain words, what this moment means in the context of the rest of the story, awful puns [perhaps], and anything else that you'd expect to find on a DVD commentary track.

Like Petra over at Dreamwidth I reserve the right to lie egregiously about anything over 3 years old. My stories are listed by character (and sometimes topic) here: http://rubynye.livejournal.com/tag/
