lobelia321No, it's not Demelza. But the closest I could get.
No time to post, no time to tig. Am completely absorbed in Lust over Pendle.
(Blame Laz. *g*)

Re:

i'm with the majority on this one. (for a change.)
Re:

Re:
Date: 2004-02-13 09:15 pm (UTC)I think Paul Bettany has a lovely face. Each to their own, eh?

Jude is too soft. I admit, yes, he has his hard moments but then, Draco's not "hard". Jude is too --- bendy.

Re:
Date: 2004-02-13 12:17 pm (UTC)I'm printing it out 30 pages at a time, size 10, no margins, double-paged.
How interesting. A formatting tig.
Re:
Date: 2004-02-15 06:31 pm (UTC)Anyway, yes.
Re:
Date: 2004-02-15 11:34 pm (UTC)Ack, what is happening? Are we lured into the HP fandom?
Re:
Date: 2004-02-16 10:10 pm (UTC)Lured! Lured, by God! (Or, perhaps more accurately, by Laz and Blythe and Katie).

Date: 2004-02-13 07:16 am (UTC)I have just re-read it myself and am now re-reading the sequel, Dissipation and Despair.
Am actually relieved you are enjoying it. I always find reccing stuff to you a trauma because I am aware that you print them out! What if you loathe something that I have recced that is really long? All those trees!! All that ink!! All my fault!!
Re:
Date: 2004-02-13 12:25 pm (UTC)Double-paged, font size 10, no margins. I started out with font size 9 but oh, my eyes. I print out in increments of 30 pages at a time. (Isn't my life interesting?)
What if you loathe something that I have recced that is really long?
But I read a few pages before I press that 'print' button!!!! :-)
And I have to say one thing for HP fandom: the long fics! I love the novels! I love immersing myself!
And a sequel!!!! *squeals helplessly*

Date: 2004-02-13 04:10 pm (UTC)it's just easier on the eyes and more comfortable to lounge in bed to read a print-out, even though i do have a 17" monitor, but still ...
Re:
Date: 2004-02-13 09:14 pm (UTC)I shall endeavour to rec stuff that I like. I may just post a whole slew of links to fic I have enjoyed.
Do read Lust Over Pendle -- you'll find the link via the one I gave above for the sequel. Also read Tissue of Silver, as it is fab! The link goes to the main page for all
There. Recs ahoy!

Date: 2004-02-13 09:26 pm (UTC)Actually, if it's any consolation that was pretty much what Katie said, and now she's hooked! I can honestly say that, although you will find that some of the in jokes are beyond you, there is much to admire with both of these whether you have read the books or not. And frankly, having seen the first film will give you at least some grounding for the idea. :)
Go on, you know you want to...
Re:
Date: 2004-02-15 11:03 pm (UTC)However: I have so far read 4 fics in the HP fandom. One of them has become one of my top 5 fics evah and evah (tons and tons better than J.K. Rowling!) and one of them I'm in the middle of and can barely leave alone long enough to make a post. The other two were shite.
So. There you have it!

It could have been the rolling motion of the cinema, of course. I was on a ferry at the time.
