finally!

Via [livejournal.com profile] cleolinda, a trailer for Voyage of the Dawn Treader.

I don't love it yet but I don't hate it, either. I agree with a few of the reviewer's notes, in that while it was interesting to bring back the White Witch for Prince Caspian, it's getting old. There's plenty of material to work with in this book without her. I just want my sea voyage adventures but it looks like they're heading in a different direction (a clip of Peter and Susan in Narnia? Umm, yeah). Also, I'm not that much into 3-D.

On the plus side, Lucy seems awesome. You can tell because she has more trailer-time than Edmund, Caspian, and Eustace combined. I also like the scene where they get sucked into the painting--Eustace grabs the painting like he really thinks he can shove the water back into the picture as it's spilling out! The image of the sea filled with lilies is nice. I hope the soundtrack is as good as it was for the first two movies.

It's going to be interesting to see how this turns out.

"The Other Woman"

I may have a bad case of Writer's Block on my novel, but I managed to write almost all of the following story today. Hey, whatever works.

Title: The Other Woman
Fandom: Supernatural
Word Count: approx. 1,400
Summary: Something very rare: a Supernatural fan fiction without either of the Winchester brothers!. Cassie and Sarah from Season 1 meet.
Author's Notes: I like the first two seasons of this show, but the disposable female characters/girlfriends thing gets on my nerves sometimes. This is my way of dealing with it. Contains spoilers only for Cassie and Sarah’s episodes.
Disclaimer: Cassie and Sarah are the property of Supernatural.
