Links for your perusal

First of all, a very happy birthday to [livejournal.com profile] trixie_chick!

Second, [livejournal.com profile] pinkdormouse wrote some very interesting remarks on things one must consider in writing sex and relationships. And not the usual anatomical advice, but things like whether it's plausible for someone in the eighties to be wearing silk boxer shorts. Check it out!

Third, I've been lax in my pimping of [livejournal.com profile] fyrie's Carpe Noctem series. If you've forgotten or are just now joining us, this is a delightful romantic soap opera that manages to combine Buffy, Tanz der Vampire (or the two main vampires thereof - no knowledge of Tanz necessary), and excellent writing. She also breaks my brain at least every other chapter. The last I recced was the delightfully brain-breaking Contact, which is followed now by Vampires on a Plane!, in which Herbert descends to new lows. Reason for said lows is explained in the new prequel, Over Troubled Waters.

Today will be spammy, since I'm leaving tomorrow for two weeks at the lakes. In case you're interested, I did finish the thesis and celebrated by attending a bonfire/picnic type thing, at which I ran into a friend of [livejournal.com profile] hotbeast's and other people In The Know. Four slashers stumbling around a pitch-dark forest at 1AM and using a cell phone with a Harry/Draco wallpaper as a torch is an interesting sight.

Well done on the thesis :-) You deserve a good break after that.
