Because I haven't spammed your flists enough these couple of days:

I need more books to read, because I don't already have a flat overflowing with more novels I can read in a good five years. Recommendations gladly accepted.

I like psychological things, detective stories, horror/thrillers, and well-written romantic stuff. Generally not a fan of sci-fi/fantasy (which is kind of ironic considering that HP and LOTR are my favourite books), but I'll keep my mind open. My book choices are usually very random, so don't assume I've read anything I haven't mentioned in my books tag.

Go!

Edith Södergran: Vaarallisia unia, 1929

mornings — Wed, 03 Oct 2012 06:20:10 GMT

Älä mene uniasi liian liki:
ne ovat savua ja voivat hälvetä -
ne ovat vaarallisia ja voivat pysyä.

Oletko katsonut uniasi silmiin:
ne ovat sairaita eivätkä mitään ymmärrä -
niillä on ainoastaan omat ajatuksensa.

Älä mene uniasi liian liki:
ne ovat valhe, niiden pitäisi mennä -
ne ovat mielettömyys, ne haluavat jäädä.

OMG :D I just found this drabble in a notebook that I'd completely forgotten about - the one I used in DiaCon Alley during the panels and a couple of drabbling sessions. I cannot remember who gave me the completely insane prompt of "Portugal" (~~it might have been diabolica?~~ /ETA: A-HA, apparently it was little_werewolf! Damn me and my lack of memory), but I got a good laugh out of reading this drabble from July 23rd 2011.

Note that this was written in less than ten minutes has not been edited in any way. :D

"Portugal?" Draco said, looking at the postcard from his mother. "Where the fuck is Portugal?"

Harry gave him a blank stare. "You're joking, right?"

Draco scowled. "No. Why should I need to know where it is? Nothing major has happened there during the entire history of magic."

"Actually," Harry said, "the goblin wars started in Lisbon."

"What's Lisbon got to do with this?"

Harry just looked at him, completely incredulous, for a while before answering. "It's the capital of Portugal."

"Oh," Draco said, still looking slightly perplexed. There is no way he would ever admit to Harry that he'd thought Lisbon was a in Wales. "And anyways, why do you know anything about the goblin wars, didn't you fail miserably in your O.W.L.s?"

"Hermione is the head of the Goblin Liaison Office, you dimwit," Harry replied, rolling his eyes. "There's only so many times you can talk to her without picking up any useless information."

"Oh," Draco repeated, scowling. Portugal. What a useless country.

random drabble #1

mornings — Sat, 29 Oct 2011 07:45:47 GMT

I thought I'd share a random drabble with you guys. People said it was quite funny, and I can't fit it in any WIP and can't be bothered to actually expand this into a proper one-shot, so... *shrug*

On the first day of diacon_alley, a bunch of us sat down for a drabble-a-thon. Using the wonderful setting as inspiration, the prompt was "cathedral," with a 10-minute time limit. I'm amazed at the fact that of the ten or so people writing, I was the only one going for this angle.

"You've done what in a cathedral?"

Ginny smirked at Harry's flabbergasted expression. "I'm not fifteen anymore, you know."

"But..." Harry opened and closed his mouth silently, looking not unlike a distressed cod. "It's a church, Gin!"

"Yes, but you have to admit: confessional booths are quite handy," she replied, winking at her former boyfriend. "Don't say you haven't thought of it."

Harry opened his mouth again, this time to actually speak, but realised he could not give the negative answer he wanted to without lying. "That's not the point," he settled on saying. "I'd never actually do it!"

"Why not?"

"It's a church," Harry replied, looking at her as though she was a particularly dim-witted child. "And besides, Lucius would never agree to do it."

Ginny laughed out loud. "Are you kidding? It was he who gave the idea to me and Draco!"

I think I shall spend the night re-reading The Prisoner of Azkaban, but before that...

LOOK AT THE ART. LOOK AT THE PRETTY, PRETTY ART. (Don't look if you're, I dunno, at work or next to your mum or 7-year-old daughter or something, because there is a good chance of seeing Draco being groped up against a wall.) I think I've died and gone to fanart heaven.

I haven't recced in a while, but I feel like shouting out that Then Comes a Mist and a Weeping Rain is fantastic (which should surprise no one, as it's written by faithwood). Also, I beg of you, read In Pieces (by the incredibly fantabulous dysonrules, who has written one of my all-time favourite fics, Punishment). Ignore the super-ominous warning of major character death, and READ. It has a happy ending and the, um, character in question is already dead when the fic starts, so no worries. Just... read.

Also, is it too much to ask to make a HP version of these? I mean, I know I've already got a Voldemort lollipop (don't ask, blame the fangirls) and one shouldn't be greedy, but a HARRY POTTER POPSICLE COME ON.

//ETA: Oh, and question for the Dramione shippers on my flist! You know the artwork drawn for bunney's fic Lessons? With Hermione lying in bed and Draco leaning over her? I've apparently lost my link to it, and can't find it anywhere. Help mee pleeeeze? *offers banana*

OH. MY. GOD.

random writing resources post...

mornings — Sun, 31 Oct 2010 11:45:05 GMT

...because I really, really need to reassure myself. Am off to the NaNo kick-off meet downtown in a couple of hours, and will spend the time before that panicking and plotting and perhaps cleaning my kitchen. ~~Again~~.

Write Or Die is of course a classic. My only problem is that a) the current Evil Song is Banana Phone and I actually like that one, and b) I've a habit of avoiding the musical doom by writing this like and then he went out to buy a pineapple because oh god if I hear that song one more time I will stabmyself yeah!.

OmmWriter is absolutely wonderful. Calming and plain, it's actually enjoyable to write with it. Only problem is - it's sometimes a bit too relazing, I've fallen asleep once or twice when writing on a sofa or bed. But seriously, super duper bonus cookies for the keyboard sounds, they are FANTASTIC. There's something about the steady clicking that makes me want to continue writing. ...But so far it's available only for Mac.

LitLift is good for when you've got a bigger project - like NaNoWriMo. It's simple and easy to use, and signing up is ridiculously easy. I prefer to use it for planning, but it's so much fun that I tend to forget the actualy writing and focus on creating the setting and characteres!

Oblique Strategies gives advice when faced with a plot problem. A lot of fun, but for someone who's as easily distracted as I am, it's easy to get stuck just clicking away for ages.

Writer's Café is good, too. You can do eveything there, it's got notes and tips and planning and a scrapbook and a timer and whee. My problem is that I absolutely despise the colours.

Liquid Story Binder is a (imho) better version of Writer's Café. What sucks is that you can download a 30-day (non-consecutive, though) trial version, after which you've got to pay. Super bonus points for having a Finnish dictionary.

I really, really need some vodka right now.
