Weapons of Class Destruction

After much debate about what to do with my Hornblower fanfiction, whether I should try to keep evenstar_tales going or not which was becoming quite a chore especially in the worrying of flooding people's flists with updates, an answer presented itself: Hornblowerfic.com. So, I've begun the great migration of all of my many, many works of smut over to that archive, where you can find me as who else but Evenstar.

I really do love this kind of fanfiction archive; my first experience with it was the Doctor Who site, A Teaspoon and an Open Mind and just adore the ease in uploading chapters and managing stories!

Peace, Ghani

New Halloween fic is up at my Hornblower Erotic Het Fanfic jounral evenstar_tales:

Dead of Night So far, I have three of the five chapters up, working on getting the completed thing up and running.

Past seasonal offerings, both among this author's favorite pics, include The Wayward Soul and The Nightjar

Over on my general all-fandoms fanfic comm, mrs_peel_fanfic, my one seasonal offering is the Star Wars-based Mysterious Planet while I'd just like anyone interested to know that I have relatively new chapters of both X-3: X-Men's Last Stand and Chapter 8 of Ghost Rider: Season of the Witch (most of you interested have probably already seen that one). I also bit the bullet and put up my very first fanfic ever, Pitch Black: A Dark Horizon. It's not very good. But I love myself just enough to be proud of it, heh!

Peace, Ghani

Well, here I am, back at home and all settled down -relatively, at least- from the big trip. The idea of doing one huge, all-encompasing post about the convention was getting more and more daunting, so I'm gonna break this up into bits.

First off, I must say that the admiratly, scaryfangirl, guttermaiden and whistlejacket, did a super fantastical job! I fall in love with each convention I attend but I really do think this was the best one I've ever been to! The hotel was an excellent choice, and it was really easy to start to feel at home there; the breakfast buffet was FAB, and the free drinks in the evening weren't so shabby either! ;-) I did so enjoy my Fuzzy Navels and Apple Cores (aka Appletinis- silly SCRUBS reference!) The atmosphere was as warm and inviting as y'all were! I saw people hanging out in the convention room between movies and other showings, enjoying each others' company and gabbing; I can't think of one of the other three I've attended that I can say the same about! You planned our "field trips" perfectly, and providing meals for many of the days was genius as I can't even count the number of times I've run around at past cons wondering what I was going to do about dinner and if I was going to miss something!

I'm happy not only to be in the same fandom as youse guys, but to call you good friends! You guys are SO assworthy!

And now I'm all verklempt so I have to remember: There is no crying in the Royal Navy!

To those friends I was meeting for the first time, putting faces and such lovely countenances to names. timescout, arwen75 and, my girl, she of the squeaky shoes, iansmomesq ("OH my God! Squee, it's you!"): you guys rock the house! CabinGirl, she of the beeyooTEEful John Singer Sargent avatars on Horatians.org, it was a pleasure to meet you and you are every bit as sweet, funny and wonderful as your sister!

Which brings me to old friend reunited! It's always a trip when people recognize and remember me! Not to be too emo, but going through school, I was kind of the invisible woman. I couldn't be with this group if I tried and I love 'em for it! Y'all are the best bunch of friends I've had, well, ever! shipotl, a grin just spread across my face when I saw you in the lobby on Wednesday night! Pamski, Phizz, Ensign Sandra, Biki (and Mr. Biki!), Mayhem (whom I will always be grateful to for the lovely long chates about the Doctor Who EDAs!), fluteface, CmdrG -takes deep breath... dreamybritactor -always a pleasure to see you and hang out with you, Jamers! I found this year that, with a smaller group, I had more time to shoot the breeze with people I've known for quite some time but have never really had the chance to truly talk to! mzbehavin65, Shell and Saucy, I was so glad we could hang on Monday night doin' the ghost tour thang as I hadn't spent nearly as much time with ya as I would have liked to (so many objects de gush, so little time!) I have only one thing to say to you ladees: "Are you my grandson?" (And shipotl, I'm still waiting to see that orb piccie! Have you gone on the tour's official site?! -Over this-a way-a There have pictures taken by guest not HALF as cool as yours!)

And if I've forgotten anyone, you'll just have to get out the cat o'the nine tales and have me flogged!

Althea! I'm so sorry you couldn't have stayed longer but I truly enjoyed the time we had together! Hugs!

And, last but certainly not least, on her birthday, the magnificent, the roomie fantastico, basbleu1800!!! Who loves ya, baby? I do!!!

So, those are my many, many thanks! Hopefully now on to the convention itself. But I ask you: What is the convention truly for if not to get to hang with my good friends, new and old?! :-)

Peace, Jean

ETA: And, of course, I forgot a few people because I am the dumb! (You can just send Horatio over with the rattan... ;-))

CaptSueB! Bobs! The irrepressible Skihee (aw, it was great seein' ya again!) Brenda (and how cool was this lady?! So much like Karin in all the good ways, and such a great gushah!) Kit-Kat! Pat, it was fab to add you to our ranks! And I'm probably forgetting people even now! ACK!

Fandom: Hornblower

Character(s): Horatio

Title: Wonderland
Author: ghanistarkiller or Jean/Evenstar
Notes: Looking through my rather large back catalogue of smutty fics, I've found, disturbingly, that I have no Christmas specific fics, at least not in Hornblowerdom (one Hannukah story though, with Edrington! Done to meet a challenge)! But this fits the bill for seasonal reading as its main character really is winter and its, well, wonderland itself!
