cjmarloweIt might look like I was trying to avoid admitting how much I sucked in July, but the truth is that I plain forgot to post this yesterday. Well, I might as well just out with it. In July I wrote 25,598 words and posted 8 stories in 2 fandoms, ranging from 1200 to 3400 words. This obviously is not exactly what I had planned in July, and it means that I have to write like a madwoman in August to make all my deadlines. I've started the month out right so far, though, so maybe I can keep it up. Fingers crossed.
Movies and books, July 2010:
The Runaways
TV: Dance Academy (Season 1)
Wilby Wonderful
The Little Mermaid
Itty Bitty Titty Committee
TV: Fringe (Season 2)
TV: Psych (Season 1)
Inception
Major League
Salt
TV: Psych (Season 2)
TV: Psych (Season 3)
Yep. That's a lot of television. Plus all of the summer series that've come back (come to mama!). It's also two movies in the theatre, which doesn't sound like a lot but for me these days it is. :)

Not a particularly memorable collection, but there's just something about reading about the places you live and the places you know. Some of us don't get that very often.
Yeah, just the one book. See: vast amount of television this month.
And now, because I probably should've said this a while ago: yeah, I know this journal is about 90% fic now. I always did struggle to put together complete entries from random thoughts, so now I just let the random thoughts fly free on twitter - fannish twitter @ofthenorth and non-fannish @blinkstained (though really the main difference between the two is that I don't talk about fan fiction or RP on the so-called non-fannish one; after all, my life is pretty fannish). I know some people think twitter is the devil but it's just right for me, simultaneously giving me a constant and comfortable awareness of what's going on with my friends/peers/persons of interest and the world, and allowing me to choose whether to engage or not in a completely no-pressure way. I also still have my actualfax blog, strangelysocialised.com, which is mostly book and television reviews and the occasional splash of real life.
This doesn't mean I don't ever post other stuff, or don't want to post other stuff. I have a couple of long meta things that have been rumbling around in my brain, and some life stuff. It's just that I do recognise what this place looks like right now.
I know I don't tend to comment a lot on LJ, but I do read everyone I have friended.
