I've just written the third of my Romanitas character studies. It contains vague spoilers and can be found here at Longvision.

Here's a link to an interesting discussion on RaceFail and fandom that I found through

metafandom. This post by John Scalzi (about being a 'closet introvert') comes the closest to describing my personality that anyone besides my mother has ever managed to do. It's scary.

Finally, a cool post on Stuff Journalists Like about 'corrections'. The post rightly points out that poor, innocent subs (that's copyeditors for all you Americans) are always blamed for journalists' errors. Too right!

As is always the case when I've got some important work due, I suddenly rediscover one of my old obsessions and waste a lot of time thinking about it. Currently, this is Sophia MacDougall's Romanitas series, which, like many of the things I like, should be more popular than it is. Anyway, in my trawling of the internet to find out if when the third book in the series is coming out, I found MacDougall's blog, and found that she'd drawn some pictures of Marcus and Una and posted them. So I, being the ~~crazed-but-inept~~ enterprising fan that I am, made a couple of almost-icon-sized icons of them. They're pretty dodgy, since all I did was crop them on Photobucket.

( one of these days I'll learn how to use photoshop )
