I've just finished re-reading Neverwhere, and the dangling plot thread (the whereabouts of Door's sister) resurrected an old fic idea I had and had written the first two scenes for a few years ago. So, this evening, whilst I was down the laundromat doing the Emergency Underwear Load (you know the one, when it's that or freebagging the next day), I dug it out of my laptop's harddrive and actually wrote another scene. And that continued when I got home. The Plot Demon had also gotten on board and given me a nice outline for what happens, so all I need to do now is write it.

This is the first fanfic I've written since getting sucked into X-Project. Nice to see me getting part of my brain back from the [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com].

In terms of the offline life, things continue. We'll be hearing the results of the interviews next week. I've been doing a lot of extra stuff at work in an effort to distract myself from revocations, which are as boring as I remember, although not as boring as instalment orders. The bike shall be going to the shop tomorrow to get that dodgy wheel and gears fixed, as well as a new helmet (must remember to call the driver and remind him he's paying for this).

Oh, and Black Books is on. Which is always good.

Eeee! You never told me you'd read Neil Gaiman!

From what I understand Gaiman is planning to eventually write a sequel to Nevewhere, called The Seven Sisters. Which I'm really rather looking forward to. The rest of his stuff, while clearly top notch, never resonated with me, but Neverwhere is among my favorite books.

I read Neverwhere for the first time last month on the plane to (and the last few chapters from) my very first trip to London and was enthralled. It made the subway experience a little different. :)

I'd loooooooooooooove to read your Door-sister-fic. . . . (wheedling tone)
