nothing in particular
Haven't seen the new Thor, not in any hurry too. I get the impression that those movies are intentionally daft. Camp or whatever.
In that vein, I have basically given up on Doctor Who. It's not just, "I'll get around to catching up with it," now. It's, "That Lancs girl who thought I was nuts for being a Whoie back in the '80's was right." I still have a lot of affection for some bits of it, honestly, like Jon Pertwee. But I don't know when I will care again.
I don't know.
It's been a long time since I left Wonder Woman behind because I realized that when I tried to write her it came out someone else--and I should just write my own characters.
I have a story in my head which is trying to riff on the Highlander concept, but it may be the wrong way to do it. Just a fannish power fantasy?
I considered writing a story that riffs really hard on Birds of Prey, with some other elements. But I'll never write it. Oh well.
I am presently not playing Magic, which is good. I am also not selling off cards, because it's kind of a hassle. That's less good.
Anyway, I'm not dead, just not much of a fan of fictiony things for fanning with fandom friends. Some of my favorite people are ones I've met through this identity, but I don't know how I fit into this blog/network/community now.
What I'm dancing around saying is that if I did write something, I'd probably write it under another name, and I would be of two minds about showing it to people, because I tend to treat pseudonyms like secret identities. It actually bugs me that I ended up putting political stuff on my tumblr under my "fan name."
Whatever! Me writing anything with an actual plot or structure, or that anyone would pay for, is unlikely, really.
