Crime and Pompeii

I see that I've been really bad at updating here. Well, I've not had much to say. But here's some Doctor Who comments and musings (spoilers for both episodes of this series shown so far, and one of the Torchwood novels (if you can call them novels)).

Come back next week for comments, heckles and review of the next episode, the name of which I can't remember and I'm not wanting to get spoilered, so I'm not looking it up.
omgtn!

To Torchwood fans...

...if you want 32 little torchwood fanfics, please nip over to writerinadrawer, a last-writer-standing torchwood comm. There's a bit of a tie in voting, and there's only 8 hours left.

Yes, I'm one of the writers. No, I'm giving you no hints.

This was a public service announcement on behalf of writerinadrawer. I now return you to your normal burbling.

Just checking now...

Who else will be going and getting a certain book at midnight?

I finished #5 by 5.20am, including a 20 minute car journey on which it was too dark to read, so I'm aiming for something similar this time.

Not because I think it's going to be amazing. Not because I really need to know [I'd be perfectly happy waiting another year or five for it, in my own little world of speculation], but because I don't want to be told.

I really, really hate having spoilers foisted on me. And this is the sort of thing where there will be gits who wish to spoil it for everyone else.

I'll be so glad when it's over.
omgtn!

I know I've been away for a few days...

...but I wish I hadn't been dragged back to this chaos. If you don't know what I mean, be happy - if you do, I hope it hasn't hurt. I'm not going to repeat all the links that have been gathered. I'm not going to offer advice. I'm a fan, and fandom has been hit hard, but I'm not that kind of fan. But I know many people who are, and I fear for you. I fear for all of us, because I don't know what LJ is going to crack down on next.

In other news: I haz a water pistol!
