Hallo! Seems like ages... Time seems to get away from me with alarming frequency. *Anyway* Before we do the updates, I wanted to link to a really interesting interview I saw on PBS last week.
Firstly, the show is Bill Moyers - On Faith and Reason. I like Bill Moyers, he seems sensible and open to all kinds of things. Also, he gives good interview.
He was talking to a UK author, Jeanette Winterson. They were discussing faith, then heroes of old *re: Greek/Roman heroes* and writing. She had some - to me - *very* interesting things to say about heroes. Things that brought Spike and Angel and Lindsey and Wesley very strongly to mind. She also talked about writing, and while she's a 'profic' writer, what she said applies to fanfic, as well. The entire transcript of the interview is here. But i wanted to put a couple of my favorite quotes in this post.
( On Heroes )
( On Writing )
I hope it's interesting to you guys, as well! I'm thinking i need to get her book about Atlas...
Now, to the updates!
Chapter Nine of 'Drowning Not Waving' - so glad so many people are sticking with this very different *for us* and rather dark Spander story. Thank you!
And the nominee for best performance by an actor in a leading role...
And now, Neverland. Many, many thanks, as always, to
reremouse for her skills as beta and cheerleader. :)
Previous chapters are here.
Enjoy!
