Not here.

My muse came back! She'd been gone for a month and I was beginning to despair and then suddenly she turned up late Wednesday as if nothing had happened. I wrote 1600 words of the WIP yesterday and omg it felt like heaven. So - I *will* get some writing done now. If you see me around, tell me to go away and write, OK?

Which reminds me - where exactly is Angel's room in the Hyperion? In my head I have it placed on the first floor, to the left, but is that correct? Any help muchly appreciated! (Are there floor plans for the Hyperion btw? I mean of all of it?)

Also I am waiting for my issue 1 of 'Shadow Puppets' to (hopefully) arrive tomorrow! *is insanely excited*

Oh and Happy Birthday to demonbrat_98! Have a fabulous day! :)

(Yes the icon is utterly gratuitous. But... oh how gorgeous! *stares some more*)

ETA: Article in The Guardian about JM's appearance in Torchwood. Rather harsh, but then comparing Torchwood to Buffy is bound to end in tears. And the writer is not wrong. *pets poor Torchwood*

There's a feature about the set designs on the DVD boxed set (I think it's season 4 - a last look at the Hyperion) There's also plans. I used them when writing The 'LA Times' Series. Angel's room is on the first floor.

Now what are you doing here? Go away and write!

PS I agree with most of the article about Torchwood. I gave up on it after a few episodes.

*sigh* Why don't I have all of AtS on DVD?

Angel's room is on the first floor.
Thank you! :)

Sadly today is also an inset day. Try writing with 3 little girls around...

I gave up on it after a few episodes.
It got better. Well a bit - some episodes were actually good. And I just have this soft spot for it in all its messed-up-ed-ness (*so* a word!). So I am crossing my fingers for season 2... it has *such* potential if only the writers could get it together.

The commentors don't really mention JM's appearance do they? Hmmmm. One person even thinks that Spike will turn up - eeep.

I bow down to hesadevil but it seemed like he almost had one of the best suites in the hotel. His room was huge *g*

If you email me your address, I'll pop disc 6 in the post (I haven't a clue about how to burn the featurette onto DVD. You can let me have it back when you've finished. Mail me on hesadevil@gmail.com

I was thinking of downloading season 1 of Torchwood, but now I wonder if I should bother...

[elisi]

Oooh you're a *star*!

::runs off to write e-mail::

[elisi]

The commentors don't really mention JM's appearance do they? Hmmmm.
I only read a few... 'How dare you love Joss? Warg!' Heh. At least they're not complaining about RTD being blinded by JM's abs - which is of course a perfectly valid reason for casting him. And Captain Jack *better* be blinded by them!

it seemed like he almost had one of the best suites in the hotel. His room was huge *g*
He always liked luxury...

[elisi]

Heh. It's not that bad, honestly. Rather grim, but I enjoyed it (and Jack's pretty!) and it really *does* have an awful lot of potential, if only the writers pulled themselves together. And lovely OTPs. :)

::Taps fingers:: Hurry up woman, then I can get it in the post and you might get it tomorrow.

[elisi]

Hee! You try to write e-mails whilst getting a baby to sleep... anyway, it's done now.

Thank you again, it will help enormously. :)

[hesadevil.livejournal.com]

Cruel, cruel, neglectful fanfic writer mother.

Got it. Will post after lunch.

[elisi]

Cruel, cruel, neglectful fanfic writer mother.
And I shouldn't be here at all really. Must think of something to do with the older ones now the little one is asleep. Sadly editing fic is not something they relish...

Now I have *two* things to look out for in the mail! :)

[zanthinegirl.livejournal.com]

I downloaded the first part of shaddow puppets-- loved it. Spike from asylum and Lorne!! :D

Glad to hear your muse is back; looking forward to reading whatever it is you write!

[elisi]

I downloaded the first part of shaddow puppets
I saw the link and manfully resisted. I will wait for my proper copy. :) *squees quietly*

looking forward to reading whatever it is you write!
It's the sequel to 'Maybe Someday'. Am now 16500 words in and have just got past the beginning... will post once it is finished, which will be God knows when. It's going to be epic! :)

[hesadevil.livejournal.com]

It's on its way.

Now I have *two* things to look out for in the mail
Two? Is intrigued!

[elisi]

Squee! And shapinglight got issue 1 of Shadow Puppets for me! Life is good! :)

[fenchurche.livejournal.com]

That's what kept pulling me back and will have me watching the next season... it's just chock-full of potential, if someone would just take the time to push it in the right direction.

BTW, I loved the fact that the article pointed out one of the big things that bugged me through the whole first season of the show: that Owen was using the equivalent of a date-rape drug and it was played entirely as funny, with no consequences for him.

[elisi]

It really, really could be the closest thing to Angel since our show died. If only... *crosses fingers*

with no consequences for him.
Not then, no. The issue was sort of addressed in that episode with the alien thingy that took people back in time - I know that it certainly made *me* look at Owen differently. Yes he's a total bastard, but he *does* have a heart.

[sp23.livejournal.com]

sigh Sometimes I think I'm the only person on Earth who really loves Torchwood. :)

I took everything that prat said in the article with a grain of salt since he called Spike a "Cockney" vampire which is just wrong, wrong, wrong. ;P

[elisi]

Awww, I like Torchwood too! Not sure about loving it, but I stuck with it, and that means a lot! (I watch *so* little TV...) But I'm not blind to it's faults.

he called Spike a "Cockney" vampire which is just wrong, wrong, wrong. ;P
Heh. I noticed that too. Over less have wars been fought... ;)

[zanthinegirl.livejournal.com]

I'm feeling a little guilty about downloading it; I think I'll stop by the comic book store on the way to work this evening and buy it in paper. After all I want to encourage them to make more like this!

Yeah! More Maybe Someday! :D

[elisi]

After all I want to encourage them to make more like this!
Exactly! (And funnily enough I feel zero guilt over s8... Hmm.)

Yeah! More Maybe Someday! :D
Aw, thanks! It'll be more in the vein of 'The Summer After' to be honest, focussing on Spike, Angel and Illyria fighting W&H, but there'll be plenty of Spuffyness too, don't worry. And actual plot! :)

[debris4spike]

Yes - love the icon ... you got that in the latest collection - where I found this one!!

[diachrony.livejournal.com]

Spike isn't Cockney, dammit!

... I had to get that off my chest before reading the rest of the article ...

[elisi]

Mmmmm Spike...

[elisi]

Spike isn't Cockney, dammit!
Clearly you have never read any fic... *g*

[demonbrat-98.livejournal.com]

Thank you for the birthday wishes. And that icon - nummy!!

[elisi]

My pleasure. :) The icon is by earth_vexer.

And here's my 'proper' birthday one - enjoy!

[debris4spike]

Yes = no arguments from me!

[elisi]

He's too pretty...
