Out of the Blue
Sep. 10th, 2006 11:43 amOK, so I submitted my Boba Fett fic, Blood and Ashes, to tf.n's Archive seriously like eight months ago. I'd honestly forgotten about it, to tell you the truth. I mean, they never sent me a "fuck off, we'd never accept this" e-mail, but as the months wore on it sort of got relegated to the back of my mind.
So I finally get an e-mail from them saying it's been accepted. So "go me" and all that, but I really wonder what the heck took them so long. I mean, it's a fairly long piece (novella length...about 45,000 words), but I've had reviews where people told me they read it in one sitting, so I know it's not THAT ponderous. But hey, at least it means I'm batting a thousand when it comes to Archive submissions.
Guess this means I should probably finish Mandalore's Son one of these days....
Icon for Boba love....

Apparently Boba Fett is John Wayne
Sep. 2nd, 2005 02:12 pmSo I took the Classic Leading Man quiz and answered everything the way I think Fett would have (or as closely as possible, anyway) and this is what we got:
Who knew? ;-)
John Wayne You scored 71% Tough, 9% Roguish, 4% Friendly, and 14% Charming! |
You, my friend, are a man's man, the original true grit, one tough talking, swaggering son of a bitch. You're not a bad guy, on the contrary, you're the ultimate good guy, but you're one tough character, rough and tumble, ready for anything. You call the shots and go your own way, and if some screwy dame is willing to accept your terms, that's just fine by you. Otherwise, you'll just hit the open trail and stay true to yourself. You stand up for what you believe and can handle any situation, usually by rushing into the thick of the action. You're not polished and you're not overly warm, but you're a straight shooter and a real stand up guy. Co-stars include Lauren Bacall and Maureen O'Hara, tough broads who can take care of themselves.
