happy (very belated) birthday, ms dodificus!

[general-jinjur.livejournal.com]

so. after many many many people told me, over and over again, to put a donate button on the archive, i finally did, a couple of months ago. it's nice, to get donations toward bandwidth and such, but i have pretty mixed feelings about it. so when i put it up, i pretty much threw it on a page that said, "hey, donate money if you really feel like you have to, fine, whatever. but if you're willing to do some tedious, boring stuff, then a donation of time would be way more awesome."

dodificus totally stepped up to the plate. she's taken on the task of proofreading almost two thousand files. it's amazing. the archive is already better for it, since she's uncovered all sorts of typos, errors, missing items, and inconsistencies.

i already knew she was awesome, and smart, and generous, and the rest of it. but jeez.

so i decided to give her a birthday present!

and then i was late. and i made her beta it, because that's how i roll.

author's summary:
It's one of those frigid days, the ones where it's so cold that in the operating room steam is coming up from the bodies in pale threads. When BJ cuts open a kid's belly to operate it's a relief to put his hands inside to fish out shrapnel, the boy's gut like a furnace, his fingers soaking in the warmth.

You are sixteen years old, and your girlfriend was just murdered. You think this is the worst day of your life. You are sixteen, and you don't know any better.

We have lingered in the chambers of the sea
By sea-girls wreathed with seaweed red and brown
Till human voices wake us, and we drown.

Thank you for these!

Happy (belated) birthday, dodificus!

Hey, I've been meaning to write you. Since Yin posted your podfic, I left her a note about 'booking it, but she hasn't answered yet (I've done other 'books for her). Would you like me to to ahead with it? I made a cover for my own copy already:

[gnomi.livejournal.com]

I'd be thrilled if you did! Thanks!

[cybel]

Great! I'm going to change the name on the podbook and title to yin_again. It's been called to my attention that there's another yin (real name) writing and reading now. I'll get it posted in a bit.

[cybel]

Posted to sgapodfic and podslash. general_jinjur will pick it up for the Archive.

Not that anyone much comments on the 'books, but I referred them back to yin's podfic post to comment to you.

[cybel]

Girlfriend was just wonderful, and I've started Transcendental--loving it! Can't wait to hear the others, too.

And yay, Dodie!
