I'm going as a Water sprite. :)
Hope to see you there!

Tenth Doctor Cover Yumminess
This is SUCH a sexy cover! I want this as a poster. Over my bed. :) And so far the book is fantastic, too! Trevor B has really captured the Tenth Doctor - I can totally visualize this as an episode.
I also like how he is handling the Daleks. And the other characters are very well drawn and sympathetic. And there was a Blake's 7 reference. So I'm a happy camper.
I really liked Judgement of the Judoon, too. Loved how Colin B gave three dimensions to the Judoon commander. Fun read - and this one had a Tintin reference.
Oh, and just in case you thought I was joking - there really are posters of Ten. Just not of this particular artwork. :)

I'm also working on The Slitheen Excursion. This one has a bunch of in-jokes for Classics majors. If you know your Greek mythology, your Heroic Age, or even your Mary Renault, you'll get more out of this. :)

Wuthering About HeathKitty
You see, I don't like Wuthering Heights
Love Jane Eyre
Really don't like Wuthering Heights. Yes, I get that Heathcliff is a classic romantic doomed hero.
But Cathy married another man!
So, instead of being HeathKitty, he should have moved on. Why did he even like her to begin with? She was mean to him, selfish and annoying.
And she married another man!
How's that going to work in the afterlife? Remember, there's that thing about how Cathy and Heathcliff are ghosts together at the end--but what's-his-name is going to be there, too, right? I mean, they're buried all in a row. Are they going to have a threesome?
But I've seen several of the other adaptations - including the Timothy Dalton
What do y'all think? Are there some Wuthering Heights fans out there who disagree with my assessment?
