Happiness is new icons! Especially when they're custom made... I am ridiculously fortunate to have [livejournal.com profile] kathyh, who keeps being my enabler whenever I have an idea and come running to her to make my dreams come true. :)

So now I have this fabulous First Doctor icon (the idea made me chuckle a lot and the reality is even better - his hat looks like a fez and he's wearing a scarf), as well as this wonderful Clyde one:



Isn't it awesome? *pets it*

... And now I need to get children ready for school and then trudge through the snow. But I have pretty icons, so that makes everything better! :)

In case you missed previous mentions, I was asked to write an essay about Season 8 for Whedonistas. Unfortunately it was in the end decided that my essay would not be included, since it didn’t match the overall tone of the book. Which is fair enough - it is a book celebrating Joss’ work, and an essay that says ‘There are good points to this, but overall it looks like he kinda dropped the ball on this one’ is obviously going to be problematic.

A few of notes:

- This essay was written during the summer, after #35 was published. I managed to read the Riley one-shot before my final edit, but that’s all. I have not altered the essay in any way since then, so it is untouched by any opinions I may have on #36-39.

- This is me at my most positive and diplomatic. I would ask any commenters to bear this in mind and be considerate of other people’s opinions.

- Many, many thanks to [personal profile] shapinglight for lending me her comics so I could read them properly. And to my incredible editors who did magic things to my writing.
