A Witchy Diary

Well, fandom-stocking reveals are in, and I feel like such a lucky duck at all the goodies I received. I must thank everyone who filled my stocking this year. I am thoroughly happy with the thought that went into the banners, icons and fics for me! People in fandom are pretty amazing and I'm grateful to be apart of it.

I received several little fics that I feel I need to share. I hope you get a chance to read them and enjoy them as I did.

Doctor Who, Missy/Clara drabble by sharpest_asp. I love this little ficlet with a passion! Missy/Clara are my guilty pleasure.

Doctor Who, Love and Kisses by kiramaru7. River/Doctor is my OTP. Thank you!

Doctor Who, Passing Fancies - a River/Eight ficlet by muccamukk, OMG MY PAIRING. Loved this look at Eight and River crossing paths. Also, EIGHT!!!!!

Doctor Who, No, Miss Oswald, I Expect You to Die by JohnAmendAll, more delicious Clara/Missy. YOU SPOIL ME!

Doctor Who/Star Wars, Taking Relationship Advice from a Master by annariel, This was a HUGE surprise to me, mainly because I did not ask for Star Wars, and someone even went out of their way to notice that I ship Rey/Kylo Ren, and wrote a Missy instructing Kylo Ren about his attraction to Rey, which is GLORIOUS and CLEVER. And I just love this to bits. AHHHHHH! Perfection.

Agent Carter, A Married Man by yetanothermask, Peggy/Jarvis goodness that I rarely see because he's married, but this is PERFECT, and I just love their chemistry on the show so them pining for each other just makes a lot of sense to me.

Thank you everyone!

-- Also, I did some of my own from Doctor Who, Twilight, Jessica Jones, Inuyasha, and Marvel fandoms.
I updated them at paynesgrey_fics if you want to take a look.

All of this really cheered me up. I had sort of a bad day yesterday at work, so this really made up for it reading these stockings.
Wheee!

To whoever nominated and voted for me at the Eternal Destiny Awards, THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

It was a nice surprise to get the notification in my email box.

You totally made my morning! And I have never won an award from here, so that was DOUBLE AWESOME. :D

Thanks again!

I just wanted to drop a line during my busy schedule to thank those who nominated and voted for me at the mirsanawards, Eikyuu Kosai in the Inuyasha fandom for their July 2009 awards. It's fun to see one of my favorite canon IY pairings get its own little awards community that ran very well and the mods were absolutely awesome.

Here are the fics/art recognized:

For Twenty Seasons More, for Best Canon, First Place
For Twenty Seasons More, for Best Romance, First Place
Cold Spring, for Best Miroku Portrayal, Third Place
Dirty Love, for Best Oneshot, Second Place
Warrior Woman, for Best Sango Portrait, Third Place

Congratulations to all my fellow IY authors and f-listers that also placed.

Once again, thank you and much appreciated. <3
I'll add the banners to my awards post soon. They're really freaking awesome too. Thank you to eggplantlady for her work on them. ^_^

First off, congratulations to those on my f-list who are nominated at the fa_awards. Good luck!

I also want to say thank you to those who took time to nominate some of my pieces for the June awards: knittingknots for Memorial for Best Ficlet, InuyashaSesshoumaru/Pitabred for Save the Miko, Save the World for Best Group Depiction, instrugirl for For Twenty Seasons More for Best In-Character-Miroku, and landofthekwt for Step Dad for Best Humorous.

Thank you so much. And thanks to inuyashaloverr and inugrrrl, and all the artists and screeners for all their hard work.

I updated my Fic Recs page recently.

First, I added two Heroes stories. One is "Oedipus" by rtwofan, who does a great job showing the darker side of being in the Petrelli Family. Also, "Inevitable" by thepandorarose, who has a great library of Angela Petrelli fic.

In the Inuyasha fandom, I read some works by selinamac. If you're an Inu/Kag fan and don't mind AUs, I'd check out "Of Strings and Kevlar". Very addicting, and the characterizations for an AU are spot on. The Inuyasha fandom needs more fic like this.

My recs are here: http://paynesgrey.livejournal.com/435345.html

The inauguration kicked ass today! I watched it with my co-workers, which was kinda cool. They asked me if I wanted to watch it with them too. Who would have thought? :3

Because of the DA wank going on lately, I've paid more attention to my Paper Demon account, even if the site itself doesn't get much traffic. It IS a good site, so I added some old and new artwork, everything from the No Biscuit comics, to stuff I took off of DA, to sketchbook and in progress works.

If you're an artist, fanartist, comic artist, doujinshi artist, I strongly recommend Paper Demon. It even has an adult section called Red Curtain which keeps out kiddies. The mods are really strict about this.

iy_wiltedrose - A Fanfiction Challenge Community dedicated to Kikyou, from Inuyasha.

If anyone on my flist is a Kikyou lover, it looks like this comm could use some active members. I'm actually very excited about this. It could help me finish up my 30shards claim as well as get me back into a quiet fandom.

Also, I saw some preview clips for Heroes Season 3 with the actors and the plot bunnies are stirring. I can't wait for the new season. I suppose I better write my pre-Season 3 fics before they become AU on me. We'll see. :-)

I watched Iron Man again tonight. Maybe some fic soon? Possibly.

EDIT: Also, inuyasha_lims is looking for some more sign ups. They seem pretty desperate. I know I don't have time to make icons and I signed up! So you can too. Hopefully... PLEASE??

Per my thoughts yesterday...

silverontherose has opened a challenge community for Inu/Kag at firsttweak. Lovers of this pairing are most welcome.

Also, it would be awesome if anyone insterested in the comm could pimp it around LJ to other Inu/Kag lovers.

Share the love! And check out the new challenge. ^_^
