Stories! Happy Yuletide!

I peeked into a few fandoms I'm familiar with and enjoyed the stories I found there. I'm surprised and pleased that books I'm familiar with are still eligible.

Austin & Murry-O'Keefe Families - Madeleine L'Engle (2)

Calvin & Hobbes - Bill Watterson (5)

Dark Is Rising Sequence - Susan Cooper (4)

Earthsea - Ursula K. Le Guin (2)

And then I cleaned my bike and greased the chain, and pulled a few weeds, and started a 1000 piece jigsaw puzzle. Several hours later I have the border and some chunks of the middle filled in, and I realized I still needed to post something here.

Oooo, thanks for the links.

Do you listen to music/words while puzzling or do you go all the way down into the meditative state?

Neat! I will take a look at the stories, and have fun with the puzzle.

I loved The Dark Is Rising sequence. Of COURSE it should have occurred to me that people would write fanfic of it. And of COURSE it should have occurred to me that there would be slashfic. Which is (of course) fine! It's just that part of my brain is back in seventh grade or so whenever I think about those books, when neither of those possibilities had shown themselves yet, so it was a little startling to see them now.
