I have decided to repost my first proper fanfic over here, a chapter at a time. If you haven't read it before, it is a Dawn-centred fic, set, as the title might suggest, ten years after the closure of the Hellmouth at the end of Chosen. From my point of view canon is up to the end of Angel, the Series - I started writing before the comics came out, and have totally, and completely ignored them!

The story is eventually NC17 - but not at this point.

So - here we go with Chapter One of 'Ten Years After' )

I think my writing may well have improved a little since this was written - but I am still happy with it.

This is really an 'I aten't dead' post - although I haven't transfered my 'I aten't Dead' icon over from LJ...

Perhaps I should start posting my fics over here. Hmm - I think I might start to do it, at least with the finished ones.

Look our IJ - once I've finished uploading Starlight Bathing to Twisting the Hellmouth, i'll start putting my first prpoer fic, Ten Years After, here a chapter at a time.

I hope you all had a good Christmas, even if it is just a nice bonus day off work for you. We have eaten lots of turkey, goose, Christmas cake, Christmas pudding, the odd mince pie....and opened a good few presents.

Now it is the mid-point of celebration week - tomorrow is my birthday, and my mother, daughter, sister, neice and I are going to have afternoon tea together to celebrate.

Then a couple of days to draw breath, and it will be New Year.

So incase I don't update over here - Blein Vie Noa!

What Flavour Are You? I taste like Peanut Butter.I taste like Peanut Butter.


I am one of the most blendable flavours; I go with sweet, I go with sour, I go with bland, I go with anything. I am practical and good company, but have something of a tendency to hang around when I'm not wanted, unaware that my presence is not welcome. What Flavour Are You?


I'll go with that - beats nuclear waste which was one of the options!

OK lets see who is around over here.

On LJ a couple of people on my FL are taking part in a postcard thingy. You want a nice postcard from the Isle of Man? I'll happily send you one, as long as you put your postal address in a comment here, which will be screened. The original idea was to max at 5 but, like my LJ friends, I don't mind sending a few more - I'll send one to anyone who replies over the next 48 hours. This is mainly because I will be away next week, and this will give me time to buy and post them before I go. If you comment more than 48 hours from now I may well still send you one - but it might take a week or two, or you might get one from the uK instead....

[info]ponders_life tagged me to list 7 habits/quirks/facts about myself, to help new friends get to know each other better.

It’s taken me a while, but here we go -

Having been overweight since toddlerhood, it is interesting to note that at birth I weighed just 5lb, and my father’s first words were ‘She looks like a skinned rabbit’!

My husband [info]speakr2customrs introduced me to the wonderful world of on-line journals.

The Cat Haiku icon usually means that the cat is sitting on the keyboard as I type…..

If you think nursing is not a very glamorous occupation then think how unglamorous my actual speciality is – I am a Clinical Nurse Specialist in the field of Continence.

I read all sorts of interesting things out loud to my husband and daughter – despite the fact that both of them tell me not to – because I am convinced that this time they will realise that I am right and that it is fun to share!

I love to sing – sadly I cannot hold a tune….

I am 100% Celt – I have no known Anglo-Saxon blood in me at all.

I am going to tag a few people that I don’t know very well, too. Although there is always the possibility that I know you much better somewhere else under a different name, of course! In which case that can be one of your facts or quirks!

Subject: A Slightly late entry to the Smutathon.
Security: Public
Mood:creative creative

I was a bit busy yesterday to do much about a smutathon - to be honest it looks as if a few others were too.

But here is my contribution, albeit a day late.


Under the cut is the story of the first sexual encounter between these two characters - they are OCs from the Roxyverse - the 'verse of the BTVS RPG that [info]speakr2customrs ran and I played in.

So this is an encounter between a Watcher in her late twenties, and a vampire of some few hundreds of years old - who has been 'courting' her for some time. There are things about both Jack and Jocasta that were important to the original game - but you don't need to know most of them, although the fact that in the UK a Magnum is a very upmarket choc-ice, not a condom might be helpful - but mainly this is just about the sex, folks!

Mood:sleepy sleepy
Tags:d-d, family history

In my last post I mentioned how apt it would be to start putting some of my family history posts here by writing down my mother's memories of being a child in hospital in the 1930s.

The Cottage Hospital in Ramsey is celebrating its centenary this year. As I do regular clinic sessions there I have been sent a copy of the centenary booklet and, to be quite honest, I was disappointed in it. There was really very little history in it and as there are still people around who, whilst not patients in the first ten or fifteen years of the hospital, were patients seventy or more years ago I'm sure they could have made it more interesting.

When I mentioned this to my mother, and showed her the booklet, I knew that I was basically pushing the right button and D-d and I had only to sit with our listening heads on and absorb the oral history as she sat and talked )

Slightly more up to date, Daughter-dear and her friends set off to go to the Leeds Music Festival on the first boat out this morning - probably not the smoothest of journeys! She sent me a text to say they have arrived, got their tents up, and it is decidedly windy. Let's hope all their tents are well pinned down.

I'm feeling sleepy because I was up at 6a.m. to take her to the boat, and then had a busy day at work.

I have started to personalise this journal. I've got as far as putting one of my photos on as a background, and trying to tweak the journal colours to fit with it better. But as the top entry was a meme in a rather garish blue it has been hard to 'see' the colour scheme - which is why, to be honest, I am mostly making this entry!

I set my mother off talking about the time she spent in hospital as a child this afternoon, so I must write it all down sometime soon. Maybe I will start putting some of my family history posts onto this journal - and a spell in hospital seems a good place to start for somewhere meant to be an asylum!

Actually, thinking about oddities and insanities - why is it that all the recent concentration on Elvis Presley emphasis what a unique talent he had - followed by people doing pretty good copies of him?

Welcome to where I live. I live on the Isle-of Man, a small island in the middle of the Irish Sea, equidistant between England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales.
