The Ultimate Bric A Brac Posting of Ultimateness (part one)

The Aspie Dilemma. Another mean, mean column from 101 Reasons To Stop Writing, which includes this suggestion: "Kids, it's time to not only to use Occam's Razor as a diagnostic tool, but to wave it over our heads, howling "Blood and souls for my lord Arioch!" at the tops of our lungs."

More on writing: Strange Horizons lists Horror Stories We've Seen Too Often. (Possibly they've been watching Torchwood.)

From [livejournal.com profile] alivicwil: Australian politics icons.

[livejournal.com profile] lozenger8 explains how she fell for Philip Glenister in Hornblower, where he also caught my attention many moons before LOM.

Check out just one of the awesome things that [livejournal.com profile] off_coloratura is capable of knitting.

What a Wonderful World illustrated with awesome shadow puppets.

Why Women Love DCI Hunt - the most intelligent analysis of the character I've yet seen in a British newspaper. OK, admittedly, the only intelligent analysis. Like Alf Garnett before him, a lot of British bigots haven't worked out that we're supposed to laugh at Gene as well as with him.

The Australian Democrats oppose nuclear industry for Australia. With luck, the NIMBY factor will help put the brakes on it.

Where Australia is up to with RU486.

A beauteous orange kitty.

[livejournal.com profile] catsparx presents Frogmen vs Radioactive Octopus.

Somebody please write some Doctor/Karl for [livejournal.com profile] kindkit!

An amusing recap of the first Torchwood story. Good grief, GDL does look a little bit like Quentin Tarantino.

A fanmade video parody of The Five Doctors which is beyond my ability to describe. (This link is for part 2, which is even more boggling than the first bit, especially the bit with the rock flying around.)

Yet more rubbish later on, probably. I have to go post a bunch of links in [livejournal.com profile] seeingred. But first, food.

Thanks for the link to the Life on Mars article. Gene Hunt is one of those funhouse mirror characters that reflects what the viewers bring with them, and it's nice to see a well-reasoned explanation as to why so many women find him attractive.

Hang on, didn't you write a whole novel of Doctor/Karl? These people are insatiable!

[identity profile] kindkit.livejournal.com 2007-09-21 01:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, I dunno if I'm insatiable. But I'd love it if there were, say, ten or twenty whole novels of Doctor/Karl. *grins*

I'm thinking I may have to write my own Doctor/Karl--I'm quite tempted by the Tardis Big Bang challenge, even though the name makes me giggle.

I'm a bit unnerved at the prospect of writing fic in a fandom where the author is around. But as you don't seem to mind the idea . . .

Have you seen my fanfic policy? ;-)
