Well aren't I suddenly all chatty?

[jasmasson]

It's because I've relaxed back from work.

ALSO. Inception. Reigniting my fannish spark.

Just read this and it was PERFECT: No One's Going to Take me Alive by delires. BRILLIANT Arthur/Eames. My fav fic so far, so I had to rec it.

Then I thought about how many other I've enjoyed and I want you all to enjoy to because I <3 you, so here's my delicious tag. I've never used delicious for reccing purposes - just as a personal bookmark - so the tags aren't VERY helpful (I never worry about rating, for example, as it doesn't influence my reading one way or the other) but you should read these fics, definitely. Uh, except the one's tagged toread, obvs. I'll... have to get back to you on those ;)

Pretty much need to apply now if I want to start in Feb (which I would if I was unemployed). EEEK!

For me it's all about the one character that I'm completely addicted to I do have sympathy with that POV, and it CAN be done for me, but it takes time. If I read Sherlock, odds are I'd start to ~overlook it in time! ;)

Oh, man. Decision making sucks. Could you apply and then see if it works out before quitting your job? Just in case.

Exactly. Also I prefer gen in this fandom anyway so then it's easy.

A somewhat related question as there are lots of fics on archiveofourown by now but apparently it takes ages to get an account there - you need some onlien bookmarking thing right? What service do you use? delicious?

Work has agreed to give me exactly what I want (3 days a week jobshare in the job I wanted), which is good... but means ANOTHER rethink. *sigh*

Re AO3 - you don't need bookmarking, but you do need an invite - which I (as an AO3 member, because I did yuletide last year) can send you. Let me know the email addy you'd like to set your account up on, and I'll mail you an invite. It's still not instant, but you should be able to get an account pretty quickly.

Not quite sure what you mean re the bookmarking - I do use delicious, but there's no link to AO3 or anything.

The nerve of them! To give in just like that. :D But yes, I understand. So many variables and so much going on that decision. I'm sure you'll figure it out. *huggles*

Oooh, cool. I'd like to use the usual one. So junalele at yahoo de. Whee.

And sorry. I didn't mean that it was linked. I thought about using delicious or something as an alternative because I don't want to cluster firefox by thousands of fanfic bookmarks and also, I'd like to be able to leave myself a note so to speak. :D

I KNOW! So unreasonable! ;)

I sent you the invite, so there should be something in your inbox now to that effect - although I don't know when that means you'll get an account.

Delcious works well for me - the tagging system and bookmarking tools make it pretty easy to use - and I'm a technomoron!

Any closer to figuring out the crazy?

Thank you! Got it! Weirdly on the same day that they allowed me to sign up anyway. Tsk. But anyway, now I'm there. As junalele.

I shall have a look. Thanks for the info!
