I’ve won something at the Spuffy Awards! “Savage Beauty” won the Judges’ Choice for Best Fantasy Humour. Thanks to the judges, the artist, and to whoever nominated me, and congratulations to the other winners (several of whom are on my F-list). I really must get on with the next (possibly the concluding) chapter; but first I have to do my Africander fic for
ludditerobot’s “Scatterlings and Orphanages” ficathon.
At long last I have my real computer back. Acer failed to repair it yet again – they replaced the motherboard for a second time, completely ignoring the shop’s information that they had discovered that the fault was in the processor – and so the shop replaced the processor at their own expense, and with a more powerful one as some compensation for all the delays. I now have 2 Gb of RAM, an awesome graphics card, and should be able to play “Rome: Total War” with the detail levels turned up to the max. I’ll try not to let it cut into my writing too much!
I’ve finished my story for
enigmatic_blue’s Holiday ficathon, and here it is. It’s fluffy. Too fluffy, probably, and I have a horrible feeling that it might not be up to my usual standard. Here it is anyway. PG-13 at most, Harmony/Fred friendship, 11,250 words, set during Angel Season 5. I’ve taken a slight liberty with the timeline. Christmas/New Year fell between the broadcast dates of “Destiny” and “Harm’s Way”, and probably was meant to take place between those episodes, but there is no hard evidence for that and so I’ve written this story on the basis of “Harm’s Way” taking place slightly before Christmas 2003.
I’d rather not reveal the pairings as I think the story works better if they come as a surprise. There are no pairings in Part One.
