Okay, am watching Sanctuary. It's pretty good. Since this is the type of stuff I normally read/write/enjoy, I know I'd like it. Not sure if I love it yet, but I like it. I'll post my thoughts soon. I just finished webisode 2.
I've been wanting to watch for a while but I just haven't had the time. (It started airing when I was taking teaching tests.) But I sat down last night and watched the first 4 webisodes.
I really did enjoy it. I know there are more but I haven't watched them yet. But I knew I would like them anyway. Anything with mythology, supernatural elements, or history I love. (X-Files, SG-1, etc.) So it's no surprise.
And I am already itching to write some fic, so I know I must like it.
Do you know if there are pictures, screencaps, or anything available online? I've had the mps of the theme song for months now, but I'd love to make more icons.
Thanks! I already belong to the forum but I haven't been in a while (I didn't want to get spoiled) and I might have seen this comm before. I just joined yay!
I don't know how many people on my flist actually watch, but it's fun anyway
(Just in case you're wondering how I wandered into your eljay...you were mentioned in the "random fandom love" post ...here (http://synecdochic.livejournal.com/155290.html)
I had seen your name around before, so I came to check you out.
Sam is teh most awesome love. And Amanda ain't half bad either! LOL
I've read several of your fics in the past, but either I didn't realize you were on eljay or you just...as you said...slipped under my radar. You're very good. As an author, I mean. Since I don't know you personally, I can't speak to your general goodness. Altho' someone *did* send you love anonymously. That says something, that they bothered. So moonshayde must = love too, I'm sure.
:P
(PS Icon is picture of me with the object of my obsession in 2004.)
I love Sam too! :) Mind you, I will be up front and honest that I can be critical of the character from time to time, but I am critical with every character. That is the way I am. I love all the characters and I am critical of them at the same time. Only, when I'm critical, I blame the writers ;)
I'm very good at slipping under the radar. Just so you know, I'm fairly gen for the show and I multiship in the fandom. So I slip in and out of different parts of fandom in stealth mode ;) What it boils down to is that if I get an idea for a pairing, whoever they may be and whether I like them or not, I'll write it. I'm all about the fandom love :) Squee!
Sadly, I have not yet met AT and I fear I never will. I've met many of the others, but I wish I could have met her too. I'll live vicariously through everyone else for now.
Amanda doesn't do too many cons in the US anymore. I don't think she enjoys Creation, and they kind of have a lock on the Stargate-specific cons. I first met her, as I mentioned, at their Chicago con in 2004; she did not look happy when she left.
I was fortunate to go to the first GABIT thing across the pond, thanks to a friend or two. Then she was at ShoreLeave in Maryland in '06.
I've seen her twice at Comic-Con, though last year I only got to speak to her by asking a question at the panel. They didn't do formal SG-1 autographs last year. This year they did, but I didn't get one of the lottery tickets; not sure she was signing anyway, as she wasn't at the table when I sneaked a peak. I did get an autograph from her on a Sanctuary promo photo, though; I managed to get a ticket for that at least. And as I posted in my journal, having her look up and show signs of recognition just melted me.
Didn't go to AT2 last year - or to Avalon to see RDA, though I wanted to so badly. I'm hoping she'll do Shore-Leave again one of these days, but I'm going to AT3 next spring - Lord willin' and the creek don't rise nor the devil get in the way!

Date: 2007-09-05 09:30 pm (UTC)I am very surprised I was mentioned on one of those things. I usually tend to think i fall under the radar. I think this is a first time for me.
And I know you! Not personally, but I see your name pop up a lot. I'm always curious, though, are you a Sam fan? I couldn't guess by the name ;)
And btw, I've watched 4 out of the 7-8 webisodes and I am in love with them. I knew I'd like the premise, but I ended up really loving the show :)
