You'll fight, and you'll shag, and you'll hate each other till it makes you quiver, but you'll never be friends.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Oh yeah, but there's also The Song of the Night So-and-so Walked into the Forest and Never Returned and such. It was an interesting and sad way to look at them, for sure. But I prefer to just embrace the HAIL! and CHEESE AND CAKE and hope they make it through the depressing days okay.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

And the ritual of exchanging food for privacy doesn't exactly suck (unless that's how you eat the proffered food).

I finished A Tale of Two Cities yesterday and now all I can think about is whether there is any Sydney Carton fanfic. Help.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I am reading a biography/non fiction book about Carole King, Joni Mitchell and Carly Simone, and I keep wishing there was RPF about them, James Taylor, Warren beatty, Leonard COhen, etc. How did so many lovers/acquaintances become famous people? Even little thinks like James Taylor's drummer, who dated Carly Simon being married to Cass Elliot's sister, who was friends with Carole King etc.

Because books.

I have that book! I only read a little of the beginning when I first got it, and I keep meaning to go back to it.

Our wings are not tired.

Taylor's drummer was Russ Kunkel and he is phenomenal. Lee and I saw him last year when he was touring with Lyle Lovett!

Try AO3? It's possible someone wrote some for Yuletide. Lemme see... yup, there is some.

Can't speak for the quality, and at least some of it is Carton/Darnay slash.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Well, yeah. Do you not remember my theory about how Sydney Carton is the Spike of Tale of Two Cities?

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

I remember it! Sorta. Something about Mme. Defarge and her scissors?
