Look back first lines meme
Dec. 6th, 2006 07:38 pmHere are my first lines for 2006, with commentary in parentheses.
January: I've gotten Inkwell 3.0 up to 100 fics. (And I'm now about to hit 2007, and I'm only up to 190. Bleh.)
February: The corner of Hunter's mouth quirked up in a small semi-grin. (Line from "Breeze Twice Blown" being quoted.)
March: Octavia E. Butler, one of the few well-known black female science fiction writers, died February 25, 2006, from injuries sustained in a fall. (And I still wish she hadn't died....)
April: This was a ficlet that
tptigger and I wrote. (Refers to "Fast Food", one of our "White" universe ficlets.)
May: I've decided to keep my personal stuff somewhere else, leaving this journal for the fandom stuff. (Yes, I have a personal journal. No, I haven't updated it lately. Bleh.)
June: I'm still here and sane, but barely. (And then I ranted about fics I still haven't finished, for the most part.)
July: I've now seen the TV-N sub of 21 and 1/3 of the raw for 22, so some minor thoughts and spoilers. (This would be Kamen Rider Kabuto. And they're still good eps.)
August: Well, have some time and are a PR fan, anyway.... (Note about the Hope for the World fanfic awards. I don't think I won anything. *Checks* Nope, I didn't. I'm still wondering how the ones that did win, won.)
September: I did get my finish-a-thon assignment today. (It was "Kuroonningen". I finished it and posted it.)
October: I've just added a few new text icons. (And I'm surprised nobody caught the "Gauntlet" reference.)
November: Well, I've managed to finish day two of nanowrimo with slightly higher than expected wordcount. (Pretty much 90% of my entries that month started with "Nano day __")
December: I've tried archive.org (I have to, since selma.pair.com doesn't exist anymore) and all my computers, and I seem to be short a copy of "Different Assignments, Same Idea", which I promised to finish for Beth. (I found the fic. It's hiding in the as-yet-unvalidated queue on Rosegarden. And I need to go read/validate a fic there, I see.)
