alexisjane: (a - really?)


That's me by the way^^^ : )

Three things!

1. I'm trying to post a bit more and that's going okay, but if you missed it, there's a new comm called [livejournal.com profile] amilliondays, set up in response to the shit-fest that is 2016, and inspired by the 100 Days of Happiness meme that's going around. People have been cross posting their happy thoughts there, but just to be awkward, I've just been posting random things that have made me smile. I could cross post to here but...nah. Come on over and share the love yourselves!

ii Tomorrow I'm been asked to do some sort of Facebook author chat event thingy to help with someone's book launch...I've no idea what the fuck is going on as usual.
Anyway, I have to turn up and talk about stuff, and do a giveaway, apparently?
I figured that I could giveaway a paperback copy of Home Is Where You Are as they're available now with some other swag type stuff, but I have to ask a question for people to win it. I've no clue what sort of thing to ask so if y'all have any bright ideas, prompt me bitches.
I'll drop a post here tomorrow when it's on so you can pop by if the mood takes you : )

Three. I'm up for SMPC on Sunday. Any requests?

My writing mojo is weak right now so situational prompts using the J's from Sunday Maybe Monday, Gazes Into You, Stumble Forward, Dot the 'i', or Teenchesters would be lovely. Feel free to suggest anything you like. I might not use it but it might get some idea growing in my head. If there's room...otherwise it'll be manips again : )

Hope y'all are doing okay. Hang in there, peeps ♥

Today I am officially "feeling better". I was poorly sick... )

The most interesting thing though...and this is a dog-related question if there are any veterinary folk out there...is how come Lily now has a cold?

I've been assured that the transmission of dieases between dogs and people only works one way, but I swear to God, this is the second time that I have had this cold/throat infection/fever thing and then just as I was getting better, Lily gets it! This morning I woke up and she's coughing, snot coming out of her nose, she's lethargic, won't eat, and is desperately clingy. We're seeing the vet later just to rule out kennel cough but omg she so has my cold! Either that or she coming out in sympathy. Poor baby.

Anyway, normal service probably won't resume for a few days, as I have work and stuff to catch up on, but yay for feeling better! : )

Miss your faces : ) xxxx

Light out

Slept from 8pm til midnight.
Tried to go back to sleep for 3 hours.
Got up.
Tackled inbox.

It's now 5.45am and now I'm sleepy ffs! I've only managed to answer about 50 messages and comments, and commented on a tiny fraction of the love meme. I'm so slow! Also starving. Breaking out the bacon and eggs before the dog gets up : )

Hope y'all had a good weekend : ) Happy Monday!! ♥ xx
alexisjane: (a- Hmmmm)
RL is kicking my ass. Just babysat for two hours and now all I want to do is sleep! But have to at least attempt some work today.

But anyway.

Press the buttons! Two polls and fic talk )


I know I should be replying to comments and I will...just need to draw a puppy first : ) Love your faces xxx

A/N - I'm all kinds of fail. I was supposed to do a pretty picture for my [livejournal.com profile] smpc but my art-fu left me at the last minute and there's no way in hell I'm posting something that awful...so you get this awful instead.

From the 'verse called Dot The i (heed the warnings on the post if you go there)
Originally a comment meme thing prompted by [livejournal.com profile] wings128 who wanted J2 CollegeAU (Thank you so much, Darling) that's gotten out of control. I'm still taking questions and writing more. Anyway, you don't need to have read any of the other bits, although this tiny snippet might help it along...
Who Holds The Umbrella? )

Anyway. I hope this is okay. Beta'd in record time by the ever wonderful, [livejournal.com profile] yohkobennington. (Thank you so much, Hunny ♥). Any remaining mistakes are mine. Please feel free to point them out.
ETA - Made some minor edits coz they were pissing me off : )




Who Makes The First Move? )
alexisjane: (fight the fairies)
Anyone around that can have a quick scan of a 2.8k J2AU fic?

Just need a quick check for typos/whether it makes sense rather than a full beta.

Have to post in 3 hours : )

I think it's okay but I've been up all night so I don't trust myself at all ♥ xx
alexisjane: (j2 - boyfriends)
So I'm an addict. If I wake up in the night I check my messages. [livejournal.com profile] wings128 asked for J2 collegeAU for the ship meme thing. That was two hours ago. It's 5 am. I couldn't go back to sleep til I got this down.

Warnings - injury, mentions of OC death, schmoop, rimming, til the bitter end, unbeta'd, happiness, unrealistic portrayal of the American University system.

1300ish words

ETA - I'm thinking of expanding this but I'd like to keep the same format, so if you want to ask more questions in the comments, that would be cool ♥

ETA...again - There are more questions and fills in the comments but heads up for character death (after a very long happy life, but still. Made me weepy) Happy questions welcome...yeah, I'm looking at you [livejournal.com profile] cerului! : P

alexisjane: (a - facepalm)



So, I've realised I've made a major mistake in my WIP. I initially made Jared an ex-NFL player and football scout, coz *shrugs* whatever.

NOW, I realise this was a horrible mistake.

I really don't like American Football. I don't like the way it's played, I don't like the uniforms, I don't like the whole attitude that goes with it. It's just not my thing.

So trying to research it over the last week, is making me unhappy.

HOWEVER, I do like...baseball. I like the history, I like the uniforms, I get the rules and the whole excitement behind it. I used to play softball so I have a little muscle memory too of stepping up to bat and praying you don't make an ass of yourself, and the relief of crossing home plate. I know very little about America's favorite pastime but getting to research that would be a joy. I've promised myself that the next time I come to the US that I will make sure I get to go to a game and experience the whole sitting in the stands thing : )

SO, I think I'm going to have to retcon. Majorly retcon.

But how should I do that? I was just going to say a thing at the start of the next chapter, but then should I go back and edit the previous parts to change all the football references? Or should I leave it? But then it would be less confusing to new readers, but is that okay to do?

IDK.

Either way, I think Jared was a pitcher, probably a closer.

And baseball is sexy : ) x
alexisjane: (headcanon verse)
It's 2.30 am. I should really go to bed, but there's chocolate next to me and it keeps finding it's way into my mouth. (Darlin', I can hear your eyerolling from way over here : )

Anyway, I'm so close to getting my stuff done!. I just have to finish my minibang art contribution and complete my podficbigbang in the next five days and then everything should calm down a little : )

But I wanted to very quickly squee about my RBB writers!!!

[livejournal.com profile] heroic_downfall snapped up my winged boys and her fic idea is just delish!

[livejournal.com profile] visticuffs was very brave and grabbed my Gil/Osric pic and I'm so excited about her take on it!

And finally, if you didn't know already, the insanely talented [livejournal.com profile] ephermeralk, ended up with my Stripper Fireman!Sam. The poor thing is going to have to write porn, and threesomes and...well, I don't know how she's going to stand it. Poor baby. I said I'd paint her some graphic dp...I hope it'll make up for some of the hardship ; )

Anyway, I'm starting to pass out so...that

Oh, and I posted my minibang : )  \0/ Yay for minibangs!

xx
alexisjane: (Ass-hand)
Yes, I'm awake at 5am...in fact I've been awake for the last three and a half hours coz the fucking neighbours next door don't know how to use their INSIDE VOICE!

Anyway...

I need to make a decision about my ReverseBang, I've got two ideas in my head and I just can't choose. And then I figured that's what you guys are for!

I have a vague idea for a winged Sam and Dean, Dean unconscious with droopy wings and Sam struggling to fly up holding his lifeless body...or something. Little bit abstracted maybe...

Or Sam/Dean having a lazy day, both stretched out on the couch reading and holding hands, in boxers and Dean's wearing his glasses : )

What do you think? I'm also very open to more suggestions, as always : ) x

[Poll #1981085][Poll #1981085]
alexisjane: (BB2014)
A few bits and pieces...

Big love to [livejournal.com profile] rose_the_hat for posting this...I'm feeling a little dizzy still. Thank you Hunny : )




I don't know if anyone else is watching Elementary but that last ep...I think Rhys Ifans is a fine, fine actor but he is so profoundly unattractive I just don't get it. Also not suave. I think it's adorable when his welsh accent shows through though.


My neighbours music has been pounding bass up through the floor since midnight. It's 9.30am and I think I'm developing PTSD. I'm very tempted to call the police and tell them I spotted them dealing drugs to minors just to get them to shut the fuck up.


Four hours til claims start!!! Eeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!

That's it x

So, after working on a story for about 25 years, finally writing it down and giving yourself RSI in the process, after getting the draft in when you thought you weren't going to make it, after hitting 55k when you thought you were going to struggle to reach 20k, after doing a second draft  and finally sending it off to be beta'd, what do you do? Take a rest? Have an early night? Catch up on some housework?

No. Apparently, you stay up all night...again (Yup. No sleep here) and podfic a story that basically has no punctuation in it.

Cause you're a masochist.

But then you do get to watch the ep : ) and take part in the wonderful Ask The Author thingy over on [livejournal.com profile] rlbivob

I think I'll try a nap now x

second glance cover
Title: Second Glance
Author: [livejournal.com profile] ygrawn
Cover Art: alexisjane
Reader: [livejournal.com profile] alexisjane
Pairing: Sam/Dean
Rating: R
Length: 27 mins 55 s
Warnings: non-graphic implied m/m sex, language, implied underage, spoilers up to 1.22, Wincest
Summary: John is only ever a second glance to his boys, who see each other first, always first, with little room at the edges of their vision for anybody else.

Readers Notes: This is one of my most favourite fics but in 4,600 words there are only nine full stops so I'm really hoping that it translates okay to the audio format.

This...I don't know what. Bruce Lee is such a huge hero of mine, flawed but brilliant beyond all reason.

I appear to have neglected to go to bed.

I fell asleep on the sofa for a couple of hours earlier but then I got caught up with editing and photoshop and now it's getting light outside.

Oops x
