My Lovely Horse
Mar. 26th, 2018 05:14 pmIf I were Neil Hannon, every morning when I woke up I'd be able to remember that I wrote My Lovely Horse and that would be one good thing that had happened to me already.
Orpheus and Euridice and crocodiles
May. 26th, 2015 03:58 pmBeautiful Music
I was researching music that might have been popular in Regency times for one of the Big Bang fics, and came across Gluck, and then this BBC performance of Gluck's Orfeo ed Euridice.
A lot of this opera is familiar to my ear, I just couldn't put a name to where it came from before. It's one of those things that I feel like I always must have known, and now that it's in my life it fits perfectly.
Crocodile Fairy Tale
A fic I did beta for is now up. I can recommend it if you like nicely crafted fairy tales about lady crocodiles and princes.

This is such a great era in which to be a loafer. So much free content. I don't even mean illegal downloads either. There are literally hundreds of thousands of books out there waiting to be read for free, whether because they're out of copyright (see Project Gutenberg) or because their authors have given them away. (See![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
the_slash_pile for original slash novels for free.) That's not even counting the free games, the free legal music online, the free art and the free periodicals.
We live in an astounding age.
