Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

That'll be interesting. I wonder whose rooms will get redone, and by whom. Or, will certain decorators, carpenters, etc. find themselves far, far from home?

Are there (decent) authors out there who've posted a novel-length fic over the space of more than a year?

Um. That would be me. If a story-series counts. "Life During Wartime" totals over 500K by now, I think, and started in fall of 1999. Marasmus & I posted a 250K chunk this week, and there are three more stories in the works.

Although the feedback's been thin enough I wonder if anyone is going to be around to read the finale. t shrugs

I'm not sure how long Career Change has taken. It's going to go into next year, I know.

edit: If it even counts. I see it as one over-arcing story with episodes

Apparently I'm the first person to notice this?

The Guardian has an article on HP fic today. Also references Buffy, Xena, & Trekfic, and provides the mandatory link to FF.net.

Wonder if the writer of the article knew about the plagiarism issue that's tarnished the writer they chose to focus on... probably not. ::shrugs::

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Okay, that article sucks. "Scottie"? "Dr. Spock"?

I'm a bit annoyed since I know for a fact that someone on the Grauniad's editorial staff has a deep and multi-fandom knowledge of fanfic. Clearly she was not consulted for this article. t shrugs

I'm gonna have to poke her.

Bwahahah! Dr. Spock!!!

Okay, maybe somebody is or has written Kirk/Dr. Spock.

Possibly an mpreg story?
