Hugo Awards 2025
Aug. 12th, 2025 10:02 amI remembered to become a member this year in order to vote, huzzah! Which means I had access to the voting packet (AKA the giant packet of PDF books), which meant I was able to review many more things than I can on my own (given affordability and library waiting times).
Also, ALSO, WorldCon is in Seattle this summer, so I'll theoretically get to be there in person when they announce the winners!

( So many books! And other stuff! )

Yuletide 2024 Reveals
Jan. 1st, 2025 01:52 pmI wrote four fics for Yuletide this year and I'm quite proud!
I love Yuletide. Hopefully I'll write more in 2025!
- Gifts from the Earth (1160 words)
Monarch: Legacy of Monsters, Keiko/Bill/Lee
That time was like never, and like always. Monarch grows, and they grow together.
Set before their visit to Kazakhstan in 1959. (Spoilers for the entire season of Monarch: Legacy of Monsters because, well, it's hard to keep track of all the timelines in the different episodes.) - Boundaries Set by the Will (1035 words)
Maiden Crown (Meghan Collins), Sophie/Valdemar
And there is no more to be lost. Forgiveness is a choice. Acceptance is a process.
Set during a few months after the novel's story ends. - Vanished in a Breath (1418 words)
All of space-time is exquisitely balanced between existing and not. A year and a day (or so) in the life of Those Unseen.
This is set shortly after Scott Lynch's "A Year and a Day in Old Theradane." - Thirsty Longing Eyes (1363 words)
My Adventures with Superman, Jimmy/Clark, Jimmy/Lex
Watch the slow door opening, letting in. There aren't a lot of things Jimmy Olsen won't talk about, but this is definitely one of them.
The first section is set pre-series. The second section is set midway in the second season.
I love Yuletide. Hopefully I'll write more in 2025!
