So there I am, scanning through Time We Saw a Miracle, looking for quotes to slip into the fanmix because I'm obsessive yes I know when I see a formatting error. A formatting error. After fighting with the damn thing for ages and churning out dozens of PDFs and reuploading the manuscript to CreateSpace and checking and rechecking and there's a bloody formatting error. It's just a few spaces missing, two empty lines that should separate a passage in italics from a passage in normal text, so it's not like Godzilla took a hatchet to it, but still, there's a formatting error being all ugly in my proof book.

One day, when I have money and patience (ha!) I will reupload these little bastards and damn the cost and get new proofs and all will be well with the world.

I was going to write more - talk about the day or post photos or show signs of life in general - but frankly writing this much is more than I can at the moment. Or today.

...fucking formatting error.

Red alert! HTML damage sighted! Batten down the hatches!

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

Well, it got better. ;-)

[bending-sickle.livejournal.com]

That's what you get for being all quick and stuff. You've got to let a post mellow on the internet before reading, let the Editing Gnomes mess about first.

[emilythestrong.livejournal.com]

Oh my goodness! Thank you for the recommendation/mention! I really appreciate it :)

[bending-sickle.livejournal.com]

You're very welcome :D

[seschat.livejournal.com]

*beats the formatting error into submission* Begone, Wrong'un! D:<

Also, ahem, *grins*:



Incidentally, the band sounds literally like Katzenjammer, that is, screeching cat. ;) I used to listen to this song quite a lot, though. *shifty eyes*

Aaand and thank you so much for mentioning me in the links of the day! And with a heart! I feel so proud now, haha. (No, really.) ♥

Also, on a random note, is Sherlock worth watching? I've been meaning to check it out. *needs more shows, what with Merlin S3 having ended*

[bending-sickle.livejournal.com]

*lols at band's existance* That's awesome! And the song's very nice :D

Sherlock is good except for the whole "mini-series" bit. There's three episodes of 1.5 hrs each. John's absolutely adorable, Sherlock's manically awesome and it's the year 2010. Oh yeah: Sherlock's got a phone and he's not afraid to text everyone. There are slashy undertones up the wazoo. It is made of win and you should definitely check it out. Trailer. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cSQq_bC5kIw)

[seschat.livejournal.com]

Ahaha, well, then I'm glad you like it!

OMG THE TRAILER :D OKAY YOU WON ME OVER ADRI and also, THEY PLAYED MUSE IN THE BACKGROUND which pretty much sums up to: so watching this! ♥

*glomps* And now I have to go study for......PE. Yes, you heard right. We're being quizzed in PE. *headdesk*

[bending-sickle.livejournal.com]

I hope it's a practical exam, or else I'm going to have to do Castiel's trademark tilted-head of confusion at your school. Unless it's about like the rules of games (because damn it, no one ever explained them to me and I had to go through years of guessing the rules to things like volley ball and football and oh, the shame).

Sherlock ftw!
