cosmic_llinDecember seems to be going slower than usual. Think it's because this is the first time in six years that I haven't been doing the Sarah Jane advent calendar. It's kind of sad because I really enjoyed doing it and I always got some lovely feedback, but I can't say I miss having to post something every single day. It's making December more relaxing, not constantly trying to work out what's ready to post and when I can get to a computer.
I finally made a proper start on my Yuletide story and I'm liking the direction it's going. At the moment it's coming in a little short, which is always my problem, but I'm having fun with it and I'm pretty sure I'll figure it out in time.
I'm nearly finished with my The Dark is Rising reread. Halfway through Silver on the Tree. It's been a few years since my last all-the-way-through reread and this time around I'm struck by how great Jane is. Not that I didn't always like her but for some reason now I'm noticing more how perceptive she is and how thoughtful. It pleases me how her act of kindness in Greenwitch is basically the most important thing in the book, more important than anything the more powerful characters try to do.
Off to see The Hobbit tonight. I'm quite looking forward to it but I'm nowhere near as excited as most of the other people I know!
