Illustrated Fic: La La How the Life Goes On by secret_weapon (Sulu/Chekov) I had so much fun reading this story! and the illustrations were awesome. :)
Writing Update
I made a goal to write at least 200 words a day and I'm meeting it. I should hopefully have a finished story before the May 1 deadline. I'm realizing this feels really slow! However, I'm writing and not feeling overwhelmed which I think helps. I also just realized if I can write about 8000 words a week then by next weekend I'll have 16k words and I'll be done before Escapade which is my actual deadline because I planned on sharing the story with my friend and beta reader while we are both at Escapade.
Tomorrow I planned to see Legion and then write. I know the movie only has a 19% at rottentomatoes but I saw Underworld 2 and that only had a 12% and I was entertained.
In other news, I'm re-watching Deep Space Nine from start to finish. It wasn't until season 3 (where I'm at now) that I realized Quark is a MAIN CHARACTER! I swear for the longest time I thought he was a secondary character (I was 13 when this first came out) but he gets more screen time than just about any other character besides Kira (who I am totally madly passionately in love with, she's just that awesome) In fact, instead of catching up on White Collar, Dexter, or any other show I've been watching DS9. I'd forgotten what it was like to watch TV that's 50 minutes long.
