No baby yet.

We went in for our pre-induction appointment yesterday and got sent home because my body's not as ready as it should be. The appointment has been rescheduled for next Monday.

Until then:

Check out the wonderful merchandise [livejournal.com profile] tptigger designed over at Cafe Press. Any proceeds will be used to help fund year 11 of the TP mailing lists.

Also, gakked from lots 'o people:


Fanficton
Do you read or write fanfiction?Why would I do the meme if I didn't?
When did you first start reading/writing fanfiction?Writing: about 9th grade, before I knew what it was. Reading: About five years later, after I got online.
What was your first fandom?Toss up: "My Secret Identity" and "The Tomorrow People"
First ship?Still pending
What website do you use most?Dunno
What do you think of Fanfiction.net?It's frustrating and I only go there when I can't find what I'm looking for anywhere else.
What fandoms have you written in?Tomorrow People, My Secret Identity, Buffy, Highlander, Forever Knight, Sliders
Pairings?None specifically. I don't really believe in shipping and pairings for their own sake.
Any fandoms you would like to write in?Dead Zone, Dead Last, 21 Jump Street
Do reviews affect how you write in any way?Sometimes. I've been known to make massive revisions to a story after posting based on reviews (in regards to clarity, not direction).
Do you use a beta?Several, though not for very short pieces.
What ratings do you read/write?Anything under R. I've read NC-17 on rare occasions.
What warnings have you used on your fiction/read?Character Death, AU
Do you have any squicks?'Ships for the sake of 'ships. Incest. Non-Con of any sort.
Do you Role-play online? If so, what?No.
Have you ever stolen something from another person's work?I've stolen a lot of vocabulary, and someday I will write a story based on a throwaway line in someone else's story that I thought was brilliant.
Favorite fandom to write/read?Tomorrow People
Favorite pairing?See above
Favorite writer/writers?Maureen Johnson, starborn_scribe, ficgirl, sage_theory, affinity8 ... and every other writer on my friend's list.
How long should a chapter be?As long as it needs to be, though I dislike chapters that are less than a page.
Do you write/read drabbles?I've written one. I don't read them.
Any fandoms you avoid?The current big popular ones.
Pairings you avoid?All
Warnings you avoid?Incest, Non-Con
Do the number of reviews tell how good a story is?Not even remotely
What do you think of Mary Sues?They're the quickest way to get me to stop reading a story.
Have you ever flamed someone?Probably, but it wasn't on purpose.
Have you ever been flamed?Yes
That's it, aren't you glad?I like memes. I'd like them more if they actually got in depth on some topics that weren't related to 'shipping.

CREATE YOUR OWN! - or - GET PAID TO TAKE SURVEYS!

Amen.

Agreed. While I don't mind 'shipping, it would be nice to have some memes focused more on ... well just plain old character interaction.

Okay, so what should go in this new meme?

What characters we like from our respective fandoms and why.

*blush* Thanks.

*hugs*

21 Jump Street? Really? It didn't seem like your thing, somehow. (From what I've heard, having seen... well, none, honestly.)

I *love* 21JS. Oddly enough, I especially love the final season and the "replacement" character who was introduced after half the cast left/was dismissed. Soon, I hope, that season will be available on DVD, and maybe I will be able to write some fanfic based on it.

Yay! *bounces* Thanks. :)

Would you please point me to some of Maureen Johnson's fic?

I hope the pre-induction appointment goes smoothly. *hugs*

I'd love to, but you're already a fan of hers. Maureen Johnson is a pseudonym for a much loved Starman fanfic writer that you based on of your stories on. She asked me years ago to stop using her real name on the 'net, so I've been trying to oblige.
