I agree with

sithdragn - http://www.slapthecandidate.com/ is oddly satisfying! :)

And meanwhile I'm also appreciating the livejournal gallery thing. Since I've been uploading loads of pics for

danielpix to my webspace, it's nice to discover I suddenly have 50Mb more space to hotlink from!

In fic news, I've suddenly realised that after all my venting about how AUs in Magnificent 7 are the suck, I'm kind of actually writing one because I'm writing a story where Ezra (rather than Chris and Vin) saves Nathan from being lynched in the beginning of the pilot episode and then it goes on from there.

If only the were-raccoon stories hadn't scarred me for life, I could feel much less guilty! *whimpers*

More later if I think of anything else...

*comforts* I think we can say there's a difference between Alternate Reality and Alternate Universe. The first is where all the characters are inexplicably plunked down in another time and place so that they bear little resemblance to their original counterparts anymore. But a good AU has one departing point from canon and explores What If from then on.

For instance, I can't stand all the stories that set Harry Potter in a modern American high school - but I'm currently starting a story in which Argus Filch never became caretaker of Hogwarts, and seeing what an effect that had a half-dozen other lives.

Besides, you're one of those writers who could do pretty much anything and I'd still like it. Er...as long as there are no were-raccoons.

Can't wait to read your story :-)
