I've neither fic recs nor bookblog, so here's a list of stuff instead.

Nick Mamatas' posts Freelance Writing Money Part I and Part II. Love the advice, especially this part: And remember to bill. There's no political movement or local historical event or ethnic group so precious that you should work for them for free. Heh.

Read more wank about warnings and triggers, and so forth. Hm, I had a holier-than-thou attitude when I first came across this (of course you warn!), but that's really because I've written nothing that really needs to be warned for--well, save for that PoT/Initial D/Hikago crossover I did last year that had incest. I guess it'd be nice to have warnings, but does anyone really expect everyone in fandom to be so obliging?

Watching Boys Over Flowers (obtained the dvd in China) makes me nostalgic for Meteor Garden. Does anyone else think that Kim Hyun Joong's head (the Hanazawa Rui character) looked bigger after he cut his hair?

I have the feeling that complaining about my weight is going to make people want to slap me with a fish. I mean... I have no problems with my weight. (I weigh 55kg.) Considering that the doctor said I was 'almost' underweight at the beginning of the year, it doesn't faze me to have gained 3kg in the last six months. That's... surprising, but it didn't trigger an instinctive "OMG must diet" reaction, which meant even my inner self was okay with it. But why did it all have to go to my waist and hips? >_> Now I can't fit into my favourite dress.
