All These Rotten Coils

geekdean asked: "You really should read the books. They are amazing."

They’re definitely on my reading list. (Though I think Brian would implode in a supernova of pique if I picked any of ‘em up before I’ve read DR & BM.)

Anonymous asked: "Do you answer all your messages?"

I do, even if it takes ages upon ages to do so. Between fatigue, the day job, the many numerous projects I’ve got going at any given time, and severe ADHD, it can take a while.

Ones that spur meta usually take longest especially if I have to research or re-watch stuff. There are a few saved to draughts atm. There’s one I got thhhh…uh. This morning maybe? that I’ve had open working on in spurts all day. And then gods only know how many get sent my way that Tumblr eats before they arrive.

That’s a lotta words for a yes-or-no question. -__-

Anonymous asked: "so, i'm pretty sure you were in my dream last night. you were all articulate - you apparently have a distinctive voice considering i've only ever read your writing. oh, and you sort of. y'know. looked like a dark, smoky, kinda diaphanous- hard to say what. lupine, definitely, only not. dream logic-y. it was fun. i blame your icon."

*FLAIL* So you’re the…at least fifth or sixth person I know of to dream me in those terms or similar. Y’don’t even know what that does to my ego (spoiler: it’s pornographic).

As for what I sound like…varies by my intoxication level, whether or not I’ve been visiting family, and the world’s worst mic. Since I’m a complete bastard, I’ll tease off that there’s a recording of me reading one of my poems on my fanfic blog, for those who can find it.

Anonymous asked: "Advice on gender-neutral pronouns? I haven't found any two websites that agree; do you know which are most commonly used?"

There are a shitload of neologisms, Spivak and the like, but frankly I think most of them are clunky and silly-sounding and there are so many that no one system has any appreciable prominence. Unless an individual specifies otherwise I default to the singular they. Screw anyone who says it’s improper – it’s been used that way since the frigging 15th Century.

So I finally got talked into watching a James Bond film. (A liveblog)

If you liked “Casino Royale” or Bond in general I don’t suggest you read this, because holy shit, a lifetime of scathing contempt for the spy movie genre has been wholly vindicated in the two and a half excruciating hours of my life that I just lost to this sack of crap.
