This is really freaking me out. Ack!! The stage play! For His Dark Materials!! ACK!! LYRA AND WILL AT THE TREE :(( I think if by some trick of weirdness someone made an H/D play I would so bawl my eyes out. And I never do that. OMG WILL AND LYRA :(( I AM STILL UPSET ABOUT THAT ENDING :(((( ...(*is hormonal right now, thankyouverymuch*)

Also, gacked from addictedkitten & hackthis & etc:
"I know very little about some of the people on my friends' list. Some people I know relatively well. I read your fic, or we have something else in common and we chat occasionally. Some of you I hardly know at all. Perhaps you lurk, for whatever reason. But you friended me and I thank you.

But here's a thought: why not take this opportunity to tell me a little something about yourself. Any old thing at all. Just so the next time I see your name I can say: "Ah, there's so and so...she likes spinach."

I'd love it if every single person who friended me would do this. Yes, even you people who I know really well. Then post this in your own journal."

Mind you, I don't have a highly interactive flist, so I'm not holding my breath. That said, I love to be surprised~:))

I rarely have time to read fic, and when I do, it's late at night and I just don't have the effort to infer things from the text as a reader. I'm just in the mood to read something equally heart wrenching and beautiful that I can understand. Usually, it's just fics that are straight to the point that make me all emotional, because i can understand them.

Easy read ficcing is what I need. Sometimes I feel slightly uncultured. Especially when I read glowing recs but the fic just wooshes past my head I just don't understand.

I used to write a lot of that angst that sounded lovely but didn't make sense when i reread it. For some reason now I just write fic that makes too much sense and isn't quite serious anymore. Or I just don't write at all.

Heheheh, I don't really want to be challenged much of the time either. I avoid reading some of my favorite writers 'cause I -know- it'd take a lot out of me, and I just want my MTVporn, mostly. Escapism, all that. I'm sure people probably think I read Heidegger for breakfast or something, but I do think it's human nature to want things nice and easy, no muss no fuss. Creativity and thought takes a lot out of you, and one doesn't always have all that much to give.

That said, none of it need be permanent, though it's perfectly all right to be shallow (especially if there's porn involved, I think, but that's just me.)
