Whoop! I can't wait to read... except, curses! I have to wait, owing to RL *shakes fist at sky* I'll have to bookmark for later, but I wanted to say 'Whoooop!' to you anyway *g*

Thank you so much for sending a whoop my way! I have a big grin on my face about it!

Now, about this RL, it sounds to me like it needs a good talking-to to get it to behave. (Ah, if only...still stern thoughts are headed its way from my direction and I hope to hear of some improvement soon.)

Hah, you did it ! I will have time to read later today also, so I'm reserving my spot in line now :)

I had grave doubts about getting there. (OK, I couldn't resist that!)

It was a day late as it was and I wrote it in from both ends and wasn't sure I would get the two ends stitched together at all, much less in time (or even close). It was a great relief to post it yesterday, I must say!

Thank you for getting me into it though. I so like to write about this time of year.

Now, on to pico!!

I didn't realize there was a story before this one, I must have missed your post. I subscribed to you at ao3, it'll be easier to keep track of new stories that way.

I also didn't realize you have a tumblr. Mine is:
http://eccentricspaces.tumblr.com/

Don't feel you have to follow, I don't do that much with it. There have been periods of a few weeks here and there when I've gotten ambitious, but it never lasts. The tagging doesn't work right half the time so it's even hard to search my own stuff. I tend to use it more like an edited RSS feed now , magazines, photography, and as you say whatnot :D Mayamaia runs an mfu tumblr, but it's not new material, and I basically follow fandom, when I feel like it, through the tags.

I have to think about DtC so I know what the hell I'm doing at pico ;)

The tumblr foray is a recent one and I can't figure out how to use most of it, although I have succeeded in finding lots of pretty pictures and you know how I like them! (I was extremely proud when I managed to put that photoset together for the story.) I also managed to figure out how to follow you, but not how to leave a note. I clicked on many things to try to do that on the Never, Never Affair post and failed. What is the trick? (With me and technology, nothing is intuitive.)

I got my Holmestice assignment yesterday, so that will be my pico task. It's due about a week before pico ends though! *eep* I'm not sure I have an idea exactly, but I have a temptation. ;-)

I am looking forward to reading whatever your idea turns out to be and all the other pico-ing.
