My Metallicar made the "Hot New Projects" slideshow over at Craftster yesterday, which I'm pretty thrilled about. As big craft projects go, this had the shortest span of time between inception, supplies-buying, and beginning (not finishing, though, ha) the actual work, all in less than 24 hours. I'm guessing my recent DVD binge (more than half of S2 in a week) had something to do with the impetus. I'd take this as a good sign that I'm starting to dither less over starting my projects, if not for the Master & Commander shadow box game that I've been sitting on for two months now.

No. 6 in my series of stuffed toys.  Because I just needed something to cuddle through the long, long cliffhanger summer. ( More pics... )
ETA: Folks, I love love love the sweet comments you all have been leaving, you've brightened up my week (and cheered up the Impala no end). I am, however, making myself go cold turkey on LJ for a couple of days as I have a class project I MUST finish OR ELSE hellhounds will come after me So if I haven't replied to you yet, apologies, and I'll get back to you in a few days. Wish me luck...Back now, thanks for being patient. ETA 2:I've gotten some requests for patterns/finished cars. I don't know yet what my schedule will allow, but if you're interested and want to know when/if I might be able to put something together in the future, drop me a note at lynnedhenson @ yahoo . com ETA 2a:I plan to do a (very) limited number of finished Impalas in the near future, again subject to my schedule. I've a few ideas for improvements, and if those work out, I'll see if I can put together a set of patterns. Again, if you're interested in either, e-mail me or leave a comment. ETA 2b:I've reached the limit of number of cars I think I can finish in the near future (thank you!). There's enough interest so far for a second batch (in the undetermined future) so you can still e-mail/comment if you'd like one. Due to the complexity and hand-made nature of the stuffed Metallicar, cost will be $60 + approx $5 packaging/shipping if you're in the US. Patterns + instructions, if I manage to pull them together, will probably be $15 - $17. ETA 3 (6/15/08): The waitlist for finished cars is now capped off and everyone who's on the waitlist should have heard from me by now. If you're not on the list you can still e-mail me; it's just that I can't guarantee I'll be doing any more. Thank you! Tags: my crafts, sewing, supernatural, toys

Huh. One of the things I'll always remember about my time in Starsky & Hutch fandom was that it marked the start of a long period of no story-writing for me. I stopped doing fanfic prose altogether and published/posted only fan poetry, something that would continue for the next seven years through several other fandoms (until LOTR came along). At most, I only attempted one SH story, which never got past page 3 or 4 and which I never showed anyone. Or so I thought. Now I'm clearing out files from my old computer and I'm finding drafts and story notes for several other SH fics that I don't really remember. Now, at the time I did help edit a zine plus I was beta-ing for some friends, so it's possible they're someone else's fics...but the drafts/notes are structured very much in my style, down to abbreviations and placeholders and whatnot. Even the writing style--sentence structure, pacing, descriptions, etc.--sounds like, for the most part, the sort of thing I'd write. But I don't remember writing it.This is weird... Current Mood: whuh?
