estei , and winterweathered , for asking after me, I'm sorry I fail at life and responding.ANYWAY. To get depressing news out of the way, I ended up losing my job. But it's almost been a relief, because things at work were so frantic and panicky. I don't know. I've got a few leads on other things, and a couple interviews, but I hate the process of looking for a job. I was really looking forward to not doing this again, but, haha, I'm not entitled to job security anymore than anybody else is, so. Oh well. Gotta roll with the punches.
Also, I REALLY wanted to finish my story for Big Bang, but failed at that business, too. I thought if I gave up all fandom business except for writing, I could get that thing done, but no good. I'm paralyzed with it. I'll think about it on the drive home, and come up with all these scenarios and situations and bits of dialogue, and then when I sit down and reread the last paragraph so I'm in context, I freeze up. I'm committed to finishing it, though, and I guess the silver lining is that if I do soon, I can put it up without waiting until June.
Okay, hi! How have you guys been? I miss you, and missed you, a LOT.

Great Lengths -
Jared/Jensen, adult, 5,600 words. This story is about dating! Kind of badly.
That is a bad summary. Mainly, this is the greatest story ever told about what would happen if everything in the universe was awesome. It might be one of my favorite things she's ever written. It's just incredibly SEXY; Jared is hot like fire: super confident of Jensen and flirtatious and funny. Jensen is shell-shocked the whole way through, managing to get off some sarcastic one-liners whilst swept along. It's romantic and sensual and hilarious. You should totally read it!
OKAY. It's pouring rain here. I'm going to get to that one meme, I promise. I'm just LAME and my big bang is at 10,000 words AND YET. Jared and Jensen aren't even FRIENDS. I'm unfamiliar with this thing you call progress.

Real quick, you should read this:
title - If You Care To Stayrating - NC-17wordcount - ~14,000characters - Jared/Jensen, Chad/Sophia, Jensen/Misha, random other familiar faces.summary - Jensen's got a thing for his roommate... he just doesn't know which roommate.notes - Mywhenboymeetsboy fic, based on The Night We Never Met, an old Matthew Broderick movie. I appear to be the only person who's seen this movie, so, um, BLAME ANYTHING YOU DISLIKE ABOUT THIS STORY ON THE MOVIE. There may be a lot on that list. I'm not crazy about it myself. Also, this now has a soundtrack.

AU to the max. Written forj2_everafter. Thank you tolight_up for making this the most fun I've ever had writing fic, and todeirdre_c for making it the most rewarding. This would have been an incredibly different and lesser thing if it wasn't for you guys.
Based loosely on Disney/Pixar's Wall-E.

Jared/Jensen, adult, 12,500 words.
Nisha is one of my favorite writers; she handles the guys expertly. Jared's in a post-breakup funk, with an adult kind of regret, and Jensen is brutally honest and unruffled by anything. Their relationship is hilarious and poignant and it comes together in fits and starts. Every bit of this is a joy. They're not in a bubble; they're two guys in the context of the world they live in, figuring out what's right for them.
ALSO, she is the QUEEN of memorable scenes set in BATHROOMS. READ ALL HER FIC.

Unbeta'ed. Sweet Charity fic. Fordestina . I hope it measures up. Jared has really broad shoulders. Jensen does, too. They're good to each other. A little schmoopy.
( At the end of the day, Jared follows Jensen to his trailer. They're quiet. It was long today. Jared feels a little slow, but Jensen's in front of him, putting one foot in front of the other, and it makes it easier, somehow, for Jared to do it, too. )

Unbeta'ed. Spoilers through 403. Mary loves a lot of things. John loves one, then two, then three.
( His name is John Winchester. This is his wife. This is his home. Look, he wants to say. Look at my life. )
Still, there are some awesome people to bid on over at the site, and Invisible Children is a really great charity serving child soldiers in Uganda. They filmed a really moving, really heartbreaking documentary that I would recommend if you're interested in their purpose or just in a well-crafted doc about the turmoil in Uganda that's indicative of the troubles facing third world Africa today. You can visit Invisible Children's website here.
And put in bids at Sweet Charity, here!

Unbeta'ed. A little bit of fic because who can resist Jared and Jensen living in the same effing house. Oh, to be a fly on that wall. A sort of ode. :)
( Jared keeps his bedroom door closed. The first two weeks, Jensen sits in the living room and doesn't stare at Jared's closed door. He reads scripts, Paula Deen chattering low in the background. He breaks eventually. )

I was going to write another 'long time, no see' apologetic remark here, but I think everyone who would read this kind of assumes that I am abjectly sorry for my flakiness anyway, yes? If not, please, assume so!
Whee. The boys automatically go hand in hand with guts and gore, apparently. There are worse things than watching Jensen Ackles spritzed down with faux-panic sweat on the big screen. SIGH. I AM STILL A GOOD FANGIRL, I SWEAR.
A great thing would be if, one day, Jared Padalecki would make a movie that I might go see if his hotass wasn't in it.
