Diary of a Procrastinator

Picked up a new laptop the other day. It's smaller than my previous one and I need to get used to the new keyboard which makes typing a little slower. I hope to continue with my Psych character facts as well as writing and transcripts.

It's only been 2 new eps of Doctor Who so I can't really say how I feel regarding them. Yes, I'm excited it's back, but they really haven't grabbed me.

I've seen the first two episodes of Heroes Reborn and I remember enough of the original series to get some of the references.

The CW shows begin next week which are the ones I'm really looking forward to.

It's currently 48 degrees outside (8.888 in celcius) and damp. We didn't get the heavy rains but it's still nasty. I remember coming up here to visit my sister one year and got snow flurries at the end of October.

And, as you can see by the icon, I am very happy with my New York Mets who have made the post=season for the first time in 9 years. Obviously I want them to take the World Series but I'll take each round as it comes

The nominations for the annual Pyschfic Awards ends on the 11th! I have two stories eligible and I hope someone will nominate me.

When Harry Met Shawn - It's Shawn's first real trip in the TARDIS. The Doctor's decided on London 1920 where nothing really happens. That is until they see Houdini perform and get invited to a seance where things don't go quite right. Shawn's observation skills impress a well-known author of detective stories.

Kay Sara Sara - Shawn returns to Santa Barbara with Amy and the Doctor to find a serious case waiting for them. Then they learn that a friend has been wounded because of one of them. Who is the abductor and what is their "motivation"? Everyone will have to work together both inside and outside the box to find out

Thank you for your consideration

I'm catching up with some genre Supernatural fics over the weekend and I have been crying for the last two days. OK, yes, one I brought on myself because if was a death-fic but even just the sentimental ones are laying me low. Due to this binge reading, I've practically ignored the fic I'm supposed to finish and I am so behind on the transcript for "Deep Breath". I will make myself finish those, I will. I just need to find happy fics or avoid them completely.

So, if any of you out there are fans of Supernatural, Psych, Doctor Who or White Collar please rec me some happy fics or at least fics that have minimal risk of tears.

My Psych/Doctor Who crossover has been nominated in the PsychFic Awards!

I'm up against some stiff competition so please go check out all the nominations.

If you're reading a fic that seems littered with spelling and grammar errors, would you give up reading or would you offer proofing assistance?

I'm reading a fic over on FFN and the plot is interesting so I'm continuing. The author's bio says nothing about English as a second language so I made no mention of that in the PM I sent her offering my help. Do you think this was a step too far? Her author's notes seem to welcome constructive criticism.

I was just wondering where the rest of you stood in this matter.

I have been sidetracked by fic this week - writing and reading - and that is my excuse for no transcript yet. I am doing it, I swear.

Speaking of fic, my Psych/Doctor Who crossover (12,326 words) (which still needs a title if anyone wants to volunteer) has reached 3000 reads!!! over on Psychfic.com. I've started posting on my fic journal and cross-posting to the fandom sites as well. I'll wait until I have a title before going to FFN.

My first Merlin fic is coming along as well (13,000 words) and I've asked the lovely prplhez8 to look it over for me.

There's also a Supernatural fic (6648 words) to finish. I also have a Doctor Who that needs to be checked over by outside eyes. Oh, and an original fic from ages back for which I subcontracted out a fight scene and they never came through (yes, you cower) so that has an opening if you're good with fight scenes

Another installment. I really hope you don't mind me doing this. I have more notes over at my journal. Concrit welcome.
