Albatross. Get your Albatross here.
Oct. 8th, 2007 08:15 amDid anyone go to Gaylaxicon? Does anyone have the book award results? The website is not showing them yet. *huffs* No - I'm not nominated, but I know a lot of people who are. IZ IMPASHUNT
I was going to Spork Series 2 of Robin Hood, but it was SO awful I couldn't sit in front of it. Really the lowest common denominator ever. Vile Vile TV and BBC should be ashamed of themselves.
Some books arrived - Making Money by Pratchett, which I'm really enjoying, and Leather Boys by Gillian Freeman. Flicking into the book a little way it's easy to see how the film does not reflect the book - hardly at all. Granted there are hints in the film, but there is a lot more in the book. The protags kiss and make love (albiet off screen) Utterly shocking for its day and as such - damned good for the author.. I'm really looking forward to reviewing this one, as I feel it's an almost completely forgotten book - and as a piece of English social history in the very early 60's should not be lost.
No writing at all this weekend. This week I'm going to do 1000 words a day or bust. I have got to the stage where I want this book FINISHED so I can get on with something else.
