Always Calm

I think I need some Always Calm spray. In a big bottle. I can spray it all over myself before I go to work thus enabling myself to cope with my team leadering angst, which I feel very keenly at the moment.

In other news, I have done two [livejournal.com profile] springkink stories, and have come up with an idea for a third. The fourth languishes. The highwayman Saiuki AU has turned into a 38 page epic, featuring wilfull misuse of cravats, etc.

Also, [livejournal.com profile] jamjar pointed me at goodreads, so I got an account, here.



It's different to librarything, with the emphasis on having a friendslist and sharing reviews, where librarything seems more about cataloguing and listing.

My own book stuff, that you may or may not find helpful:

Slashy Books I've Read (http://viridian.shriftweb.org/slashybooks.htm), for if you're looking for something with m/m or f/f

Books I've reviewed on LiveJournal (http://viridian5.livejournal.com/tag/books). In some cases I talk about them more in the comments. I've tagged all the way to years back.



Yay for willful misuse of cravats!

Thanks!

How I was brought into online slash: In college I would lend a friend favorite books, and she noticed that the majority of them had m/m. Not that she minded. In 1997, when she found out that I had achieved internet, she sent me the URL for the main X-Files Mulder/Krycek archive, figuring that it would be right up my alley. And thus was my slash career born.
