So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Then the World Science Fiction Society came over and made the OTW clarify that none of us fanfic authors were allowed to say we were Hugo winners. Because you're not. You're just devaluing the award if you say that. Maybe you think it's funny, but you're just being assholes all over social media

My eyes, they are a-rolling.

Can I say I contributed? I'm not going to declare myself a Hugo winner, but I'm pretty darned close, in Kevin Bacon terms.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

That is precisely the discussion going on. Or one of the discussions.

It's really, really silly.

In other news, I've done a thing. The Leonard Cohen Title Challenge (Any Freaking Song but "Hallelujah"). [link]

This is the most activity I've managed in fandom since Yuletide. It's sad. It really is.

Mustn't allow those tawdry fanficcers to get too close to the "real" writers.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I like Ursula Vernon's take on it: [link]

She's a Hugo award winner, too.

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

Good Omens fic I love:

die_traumerei's The Sprawl of Life, first story, "Demolishing Proofs We Never Believed In" is complete. Has fun with the notion of Making An Effort.

attheborder's it's a new craze: Aziraphale and Crowley host an advice podcast. If Sheen and Tennant could be coaxed into committing podfic, this would be high on my "Pleeeeeeeeeeeease" list.

irisbleufic's Crown of Thorns. It's enormous. It's comforting.

drawlight's Salinity (And Other Measurements of Brackish Water) The bookshop doesn't recover in this one. :-( But Aziraphale does.

gallantrejoinder's when all the stars in the sky align: they are good godfathers to all of the Them, not just Adam.

dollsome's i'd like for you and i to go romancing because OF COURSE they ran into Lord Byron.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

drawlight's Salinity (And Other Measurements of Brackish Water) The bookshop doesn't recover in this one. :-( But Aziraphale does.

I love just about everything drawlight writes for GO.
