An update and a meme
[+] I'm just about finished with my reread of BSC canon; all I have left are a couple of mysteries, and the prequel, The Summer Before. Of course, I've already gathered six notebook pages full of observations about my characters (Charlie Thomas and Janine Kishi, for anyone who's wondering), so perhaps this is going just a teensy bit overboard. Perhaps ;)
I'm quite excited, though, because it looks like the plot I've dreamed up and outlined is going to work just perfectly :) This story is going to practically write itself, and I can't wait! =) I've had some positive responses from the
babysittersclub comm here ~ I guess my minor alt!ship pairing isn't all that minor after all... ;) As long as my Thanksgiving holiday is drama-free (and the muses are cooperating), I think I can have this thing ready for publication by early December.
[+] And since I'm a sucker for a good music-related meme...

You're makin' me see 'S', so dig out your best S-word songs! (And you get my fiercest icon, hehe.)

And maybe overboard with the BSC - but where's the fun in going halfway? :P

And yeah. I don't have nearly all of my music on my computer, but I had enough to start making a list of YouTube vids...and then I found a few by chance. I <3 Beck so hard (he was my next musical crush after Ryan Lambert, LOL) and I was SO disappointed to find out he was a Scientologist >:(

It certainly will make it easier to put this story together, even if I'm setting it before half this stuff even happens :) I haven't been this excited about a fic idea in a long time, and part of that comes from the fact that it's so nicely contained - I have a realistic chance of writing the whole thing before the urge to post it hits me. Huzzah for finished stories, I say! :P

Oh man. That *is* disappointing! D:

Huzzah indeed! That always makes things a bit easier, I think.

Eh, that's okay ~ obviously I made due ;) I couldn't think of a single L-word song off the top of my head, but when I organized my song list on the computer, suddenly I had choices.
Thank goodness, LOL.
And some of these are my all-time faves ~ like "Lie in Our Graves" <3
Six pages of notes, huh? *rubs back of her head* Well, at least you're prepared!
More than, LOL. BSC canon is quite far-reaching - I think there's something like 210 books altogether or some such craziness o.O I'm itching to write, though, so hopefully the researching part of this will wrap up today or tomorrow.
Good to know my enthusiasm is catching! =) Better positive energy than negative, I say.

I'm really looking forward to this. It's always nice to have new ways to write! And to know there's an audience for the finished product :)
I'm happy to see you like Luscious Jackson. LOVE THEM!
They are awesomecakes. That movie is awesome and absurdist, and its soundtrack was never far from my hands back in the day, LOL!!
