Spread the Love

First meme of the LJ!

Nicked from [livejournal.com profile] wave_obscura and [livejournal.com profile] roque_clasique:

Reply to this post, and I'll tell you one reason why I think you're spectacular. Then repost this [if you like] and spread the love.


Since I'm still pretty new around here, the love will likely be mostly about eiter how awesome your fic is or how nice your comments are, but I figure it can't hurt, right? :D

I'm late, but I WANT. Want?

God, where do I start?

I think we've been LJ friends for less than two months, but even after so short a time I think you might possibly be the best thing since sliced bread. :)

Thank goodness you asked for this *after* you posted your poem, or I couldn't go on and on about how beautiful your sestina was: all sharp corners and soft fabric.

Your writing is painful and real and beautiful and addictive: you have a sense of imagery and pacing that are incredibly rare even in this huge fandom of good-to-great writers. (You're working on "Direct Eyes" right? Right?)

I came to your LJ for the fiction, and stayed for the person. You are funny as all hell, and strike me as being sweet and impulsive and scary, scary-smart.

I love reading about you, about your family (that recording of your grandmother just about made me rupture something, I laughed so hard), and even though it seems like you might be having a tough time these days, you're resilient and have a fantastic sense of humour about the whole process.

Also, you've made me very curious about trying sriracha (I hope I spelled that right), after your infamous tortilla sandwich post. :)
