kaffy_r: Hayao Miyazaki's Kiki scrubs the floor in animation (Kiki scrubs)
In Which Your Humble Servant Attempts to Get a Move On
(And also, Several Things Make a Post)

If I could be as assiduous about my work as the little lady in my Dreamwidth icon, I would be happy. More likely, I'll resemble the little Tanuki in my LJ icon. So I shall simply be pleased that I am working ... and here, of course, I have to wonder why I spend so much time obsessing about how I don't work to what I consider my optimal level, and so little time actually, you know, working. I am forced to put it down to the fact that my human clockwork is wonky, and that this is one of the symptoms. Today, at least,  my obsession is tinged with good humor. And that is no mean feat.

Enough of that.
Tell me about my eyes ... er, read under cut )

kaffy_r: The TARDIS says hello (Fndom turn of the earth)
Happy Birthday, [livejournal.com profile] mostlikely2 .

Sometimes there are writers who can connect with readers with breathtaking immediacy because they seem to have the gift of saying "This is what I feel; this is who I am; this is what I have experienced. I am your brother, and we share this world, and I share some of your heart."

Sometimes there are writers who take readers to new places, who say "Look out beyond yourself; consider this possibility; don't be afraid at the fear or discomfort, push pass it and look at what you'll find on the other side."

Sometimes there are writers who see connections between themselves and others, between the roots and trunk and limbs and leaves of the tree of the universe, between heart and soul, between groin and brain, between heaven and hell, between the soup and the nuts (because they know how to laugh, too.)

Sometimes there are writers who love, and demand, and grieve, and rejoice, and are hard on their readers, and embrace them, and take them on the same dangerous, wonder-ful journey they are trying to navigate for themselves.

Rarely do they come together in one person.

They do in you.

May this year be full of challenge and success, of grace and laughter, both personally and professionally.
