New layout...and a new icon to go with :-) I wanted something nice and simple this time. It looks wrong in IE, but I can live with it. Still needs a little work on the link colours, though.


I have broken 2000 words on my TS fic for [livejournal.com profile] marishna's picture challenge. I'm not sure if they're 2000 good words but it's a start.

I have concluded I need help, though - I know I've got a lot of Sentinel peeps on my flist. The thing is, the story is set very early in the series (before Cypher) and I'm struggling a lot with Blair. I know Jim pretty well, but Blair changed so much over the course of the show that I really don't him too well at this stage. Most of my TS fic is post-S2, or AU. I tried re-watching those early eps but though that's clarified my questions it hasn't helped me find the answers.

Is anyone out there willing to help me brainstorm a few things? Pretty please?

I suspect this is at least partly the root of my writers' block on this story. The other part being my instinct is to write from the suspect's POV, but I know it'll be a better story if I don't.


In other fandom news, OTW's fantastic Archive of Our Own launched its first beta a few days ago. If you haven't seen it yet, do check it out. It's read-only at the moment - you can read the fics but can't post in it.

It's different from any other archive I've seen. I think it'll take some getting used to. The tagging system is potentially unweildy, but the amount of thought that's gone into the whole thing from a fannish point of view really shows. What's more, the team wrote this software from the ground up in less than a year.

Colour me impressed.
