And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I loved Domesday Book, but wished someone had warned me before I started reading it how FUCKING DEPRESSING it was. I had no idea, and couldn't put it down, and was all sniffly, and it was NOT what I needed right then...

It's a remora, dimwit.
I thought the warning was not to read "Doomsday" when ill.

I can't even.
I like Connie Willis, Lincoln's Dreams blew me away, but Doomsday Boke bugged. Like calling it Domesday Boke, then setting it in the 14th C. She did an amazing job evoking the time, and I really liked that, then the rest of the book just kind of unravelled for me. I realize tons of people loved it, but it just didn't work for me, in the end. It's weird because that book should have just jazzed me to the moon, but it ... didn't. I like all her stuff and I want to rave about that book, and couldn't.

It is my understanding that Fritz Leiber did actually originate "The Big Time" as a play.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
It is my understanding that Fritz Leiber did actually originate "The Big Time" as a play.
Googling around it seems that it was produced at the Babcock Theater in Salt Lake City back in 1982.

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.
Oh, blessed Mother. I was out here in 1982.
Meep.
I think I am going to have a little cry now.

Lincoln's Dreams blew me away
Really? Huh. I read a bunch of her other stuff first, and only read Lincoln's Dreams last week for the first time, and was way unimpressed. Can't explain why, just really didn't like it much. It got better later on, but the beginning I very disliked for some reason.
t realizes is not in literary
Uh, that Lex sure is hot, now that he's not all sunburnt and peely. Mmm, Lex. And The OC ROCKS.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
I liked Doomsday Book, but then, my first Connie Willis was Lincoln's Dreams, which is also about sucky fate, so not surprised. I was really surprised when I realized she also wrote farce!
I loved that Sam Beckett Goes Home set of episodes. I loved the look the older brother gave him, after he'd saved his life -- as if he knew it was Sam.
