Friending... journals and comms

[tari_roo]

Greetings All

Is anyone else finding LJ just a tad quiet these days? I know I should be using this 'quiet' time to get some reading/writing done, but I fear all the new shows and my work load are preventing me *bats at the excuses rolling their eyes*.

But there is nothing like browsing through an interesting journal to while away the boring meetings, traffic, procastination, bathtime,  eh... whatever.

So, what are your recs of interesting LJ journals or comms, that you visit on a regular basis and/or friend? Help me broaden my interweb horizons, please :)

And also, is anyone watching Elementary and Made in Jersey? I am - and so far, I like :)

I'm watching Elementary and enjoying it so far :) Not in a "new fandom" kind of way, but just as something nice to watch when I get bored.

If LJ/dw is slow these days I didn't notice, but it would be nice because I'm so busy with university I shouldn't be as distracted as I am by shiny internets *sigh*

Oh, yeah - although I know have three competing versions of Sherlock in my fandom brain :)

I started following the Doctor Who newsletter. For a while I tried watching an avengers comm, but they were posting too darn much!

As to people....well, for starters there's bellatemple and honeyloccusttree and hells-half-acre and ceedeeandco (who wrote a really nifty gen mini-bang this year! and wrote some amaaazing farscape longfic) and tassosss and moonshayde and goldenusagi and really, I just love everyone on my flist so if you want to stalk my profile for all the people i've friended, I heartily recommend all of them.

And on a completely different note....could I ask for some more hand-holding and idea-bouncing for the not-really-a-comment-fic-anymore-fic?

*rubs hands* oooo, I shall stalk your flist then :) Thanks!

And yes, of course! *takes you by the hand* Come, lets go be pyromaniacs together!!

I'll check it out later, that ok?

[claudiapriscus.livejournal.com]

Sure, thank you! You're the best :)

I am just starting to get back into my journal and comms now that I am breathing (sort of) again. I haven't had time to pick up much of anything new. well except a baking community,which isn't really a fandom. I have tried Elementary but I am not into it yet. It takes a couple of seasons for me. Like I am just getting into Person of Interest right now.

If you have time, I might pick your brain on a fic I am trying to write for a present?

[tari-roo.livejournal.com]

Sure and steady wins the race :)

Of course, dear. Please pic away :)

*waves* I'm sort of your stalker for your fics, but I'm de-anoning for Elementary.

I like it, but I think it's too similar to The Mentalist in structure, and too procedural to really be totally Sherlock, in my opinion. Replace Sherlock Holmes and Joan Watson with any other generic names and the story will work just as well. It's something to while the time away while waiting for BBC Sherlock to finally air LOL

Now I wish I had a Mrs Doubtfire "helllooooo" icon. Hello! :)

*ponders* I agree with you about the similiary with The Mentalist, as Jane does operate on a similiar vein. I think the reason I like it because its a great little Sherlock fix (as you said). As much as I love BBC Sherlock, the episodes are so few and intense, its almost a relief to watch something less intense and more lighthearted.

And I love Johnny Lee Miller :)
