Guys, isn't this just spectaculous?

AND THEN THERE WAS FIC.
....
Well? What are you waiting for?

Current Mood: ecstatic

This is the REVISED version of the prologue which I posted herein some time ago. Since then, I've acquired some lovely and insightful beta readers who know how to negotiate with commas better than I.

Current Music: dus bahane (how appropriate!)

But before that, ladies and gentlepeople, let us all give a hearty round of applause to this year's Lois and Clark Fanfic Kerth Nominees! <applause> Wish you all the very best of luck for the final voting!

This is why I love the LnC fandom so much. The annual Kerth excitement, when everybody's gearing up for the Kerth quizzes and marathon reading for the nominations and then voting and rooting for their favourite stories with as much fervour as though it were a Presidential election. All for that golden stattuette and blue ribbon. You never get that in the HP fandom; it's far too vast. In LnC, it's like life in a small town; everybody knows everybody else! I love it!

And now on with your scheduled programme...

Facebook is interesting after all. I've joined a group called "F.I.N.A.L.S (Fuck, I Never Actually Learned this Shit), just so it'd appear in my profile page for people to giggle at. I also came across this group You Know You're In College When... from whose profile page I snagged the following (bloody hilarious and very true) list.

Current Mood: ditzy
Current Location: staring at the slimy and disgusting sides of my inner self
Current Music: crazy little thing called love

Y'all remember that bout of Smallville bashing I indulged in a while ago, wherein I proclaimed that all shows turn into a soap after the fourth season? Well, I have a confession to make. I hadn't actually watched the fifth season then, only read the episode transcripts. I went out and bought the complete Season 5, the other day and had another binge-watching session.

Conclusion: Season Five is the best Smallville Season to date.

( Explanation for the dramatic about-face... )

Current Mood: complacent
Current Music: Collide by Dishwalla (yet another great Smallville track)

How the fricking hell did I get hooked on Smallville?!

( Smallville fans may find the following rant offensive. Don't say I didn't warn ya... )

Current Mood: bitchy
Current Location: internet cafe
Current Music: Lag ja gale (I found it Sanj! *Hearts*)

If the Lois and Clark Season Three DVD box set takes any longer to hit the stores here in Sri Lanka, I will definitely a) go insane b) succumb and pay over $40 ordering it on-line from Amazon, which is tantamount to insanity anyway.

AAAAAAAAAaaaarrrrgghghghgh!!!!

Ahem. Excuse me.

While I’m waiting, I thought I’d give my new friends starrylites and katshakespeare, a welcome gift in the form of links to some of my favourite Lois and Clark fanfiction. Apologies if you’ve already read them. I’m hazarding that you may not have.

Note: I’m linking these to the stories in the LnC Fanfic Archive, which is PG 13. The R-rated versions of many of the stories are available at Anne’s place under the “nfic” section. You need to register to gain access.
