If you're thinking I look familiar but you can't place me, that's because I was lyrstzha on LJ for many years.

"A man talking sense to himself is no madder than a man talking nonsense not to himself."---Tom Stoppard

This journal is about 80% locked. All completed fanfiction will be posted unlocked if I put it here. However, all original work, offers to take fic requests, solicitations of prompts, plot bunnies, and pretty much anything personal will be flocked. If you want to be in on locked things, drop me a comment.

Herein you will find fic (in a joyously eclectic mix of slash, femslash, het, and gen), ranting, philosophy, strangeness, recs, meta discussion, and general ramblings. Sometimes I talk about teaching, scholarly writing, or original writing. Sometimes I talk about low-carb baking, political activism, my dogs, or organic gardening. I am a pansexual, demisexual, Wiccan, socialist Latina in a long-term queerplatonic partnership with a gay man; be warned that I talk about these things sometimes, too.

Obligatory disclaimer: I hereby warn you that this journal occasionally features adult content.

Transformative works policy: if you want to archive, podfic, repost, translate, or adapt any of my work, please ask permission first.

If you're wondering if it's okay for you to comment on something I've posted, it is. It's also perfectly okay to comment on older posts; you don't have to feel like you need to apologize for coming in late.

If you're here wondering why I've subscribed to you, that's easy. I stumbled across something you said somewhere, and you intrigued me. I followed you back to your journal, poked around a bit, and was still intrigued. Feel no obligation to give access or subscribe reciprocally; I am perfectly at home with the notion that not everyone whom I am curious about is equally curious about me.

Here is my partial, detailed fiction list. You can also find recs and fic in the memories or tags here, or in the recs of my AO3. If you're here looking for something you're pretty sure I wrote, but you can't find it anywhere, ask me about it. In all probability I've forgotten to link it/haven't gotten around to linking it/meant to link it, but can't remember where in the wide net I left it.
