I survived the LJpocalypse of July 2011! How about you?

LJ is back! Woohoo!

In news...

* Editor Janet B. Croft has accepted the proposal for my essay "From Both Sides Now: Lois McMaster Bujold and the Fan Fiction Phenomenon" (working title) for the forthcoming collection Forward Momentum: The Science Fiction and Fantasy of Lois McMaster Bujold (Critical Explorations in Science Fiction and Fantasy Series) for McFarland Press, scheduled for publication in late 2012/early 2013. I am ridiculously excited about this one.

* The US DVDs of the second season of Garrow's Law (see icon) will be released next week. *much rejoicing* Garrow's Law is part of my current BBC fixation, which also includes much love for Sherlock , of course, as well as Cabin Pressure and Doctor Who . And speaking of retro Who, we're about to watch the second half of "The War Machines," in which Patrick Troughton will regenerate into Jon Pertwee. So we're moving steadily along...

* And speaking once more of Doctor Who , did I previously realize that the second Doctor was Dudley Dursley's grandfather in real life? No, I don't think I did. Hmmm. It's a small world after all.

Happy early birthdays to [info] tudorpumpkin and [info] lizziebelle . May you both have most excellent days and wonderful years to come!


And now, a Lovecraftian moment, thanks to [info] wellinghall :
