May. 21st, 2018 02:16 pmAlmost finished watching Classic Who- only 4 more serials left! I've got the DVD of The Mutants sitting there waiting to be watched but I'm almost sad to, since it's the last 'new' Third Doctor serial I'll ever see. But I figure I'd better watch it sooner rather than later, since it's hard to avoid spoilers for a show that's been around this long.
I'm thinking it's time to finally get an Ao3 account at last. It seems Teaspoon is becoming a bit of a backwater as far as Doctor Who fandom is concerned, and everyone there has their stuff on Ao3 now as well, so maybe I should get on the bandwagon. I kind of want to write stuff for some other fandoms too, so Ao3 is the only real option for that, since I refuse to go to The Pit (aka FFN). And anyway lots of fic exchanges and fests and things are done through Ao3, so maybe it'll get me writing more, which would be nice since I haven't written any fic in sooo long, but who knows if I actually would. idk.
Trying to get enthused about sewing things again so that I won't have to last-minute scramble before this fall's conventions, but I'm so busy this summer and kind of not feeling the costuming bug. I'm probably going to mostly re-use old costumes for Teslacon this year, but I finally found a hat for my one of my dream dresses that I've wanted to make for years, so I've been thinking maybe I should make that this year. I told myself no more fussy fancy silk dresses if it's just for Teslacon, but I've got the hat and the fabric, and where else am I gonna wear a full 1880s get-up anyway? Maybe it'll get me excited for sewing again. I guess I should figure out a bodice pattern... (but I'll probably just procrastinate on Pinterest for a few hours instead :p)
