(no subject)

Just wondering . . . has anyone done an essay or research or anything on how the Gred'n'Forge thing got so inflated in fanon?

I was reflecting once more on how, in canon, it is a very specific one-time joke, but now about half of the stories featuring Fred and George seem to assume that these are regular nicknames. WTF?

I have about five things I should be writing, and yet I cannot sit myself down to write. *sigh* I suppose things could always be worse.

writing quirks

What is my greatest strength, mechanics-wise, in writing? I always know which homonym I mean and write it correctly.

What is my greatest weakness, mechanics-wise, in writing? I don't do paragraphing. I almost always have to go back through and divide my big blocky chunks of text into manageable pieces.

What is my preferred way to assure writing privacy? I learned the greek alphabet some years ago, and can write it longhand or interpret the computer font. Thus no one can read over my shoulder. :P

More recently I have been learning Tolkien's tengwar script, but I need to practice more in order to read it with any speed. Also downloaded tengwar computer font, but cannot yet figure out how to get it usable. Sigh.
