I'm now using this journal for posting my new stories, but older works may still be hosted on Live Journal. Stories I've published on Wraithbait are here: codemonkey

This is the series page for my Sheppard Family AU, introducing John's younger cousin Vincent Sheppard. The AU is set sometime during season 5 of SGA, so may contain spoilers for people who haven't watched all the shows. ( Read more ...Collapse )

My new laptop, which is the replacement for my deceased computer, should arrive tomorrow.

I will have to get all my software installed, and figure out how to use windows 8, so don't panic if you don't hear from me for a couple of days.

I'm also going to be transferring media around - stories to Google drive, music from CD to my tablet, maybe investigate photo bucket for pictures.

Also I now have an AO3 account so I'll need to start moving all my stories across.

I'm on a course in work for the next two days, but I'm stopping in on Saturday for the delivery of a new sofa.

If I have any time at all I want to write more Guardians. I have holidays booked at the start of May, so hopefully will get to a point where I can draw a line and say it's finished.

The snow from Friday just kept on going and in the end we had over 30cm. It's the most snow we've had in our village in the 12 years I've lived here. A neighbour told me that the last time it got this bad was over 35 years ago. I spent Sunday afternoon digging out my car and ended up exhausted and sore.

The road I use to get into work was still closed on Monday, and then it started snowing again this morning, so I've been working from home.

We've had icicles on the roof that would look more at home somewhere in Canada. Unfortunately the snow has been sliding off some off the roofs. I saw one poor man get a great big pile of snow dumped on him while trying to dig out his car. He wasn't hurt fortunately.

I did manage to get some writing done on Saturday. Also I've had Guardians pt 4 back from my beta, so it should be up soon.

We had snow overnight and it's continued to fall on and off all day. At 10am we had 18cm on the lid of the rubbish bin (that's our name for trash can, if you aren't British). This is pretty much as deep as it normally gets here in the valley. They were forecast 30cm on the hills. It's probably much worse than that where it's drifted. The news is full of stories of closed roads and crashed lorries.

Was going to go food shopping tomorrow - may have to just get bits and pieces in the corner shop instead.

I have a work laptop, which I'm using to work from home today. No escaping work when it snows. Sadly I'm not allowed to do personal stuff on it.

Got to check Guardians pt 4 tonight and get some work done on remaining chapters. Going to need a beta soon.

This isn't new, but I thought you might like orange fleece Rodney!

TITLE: Guardians of Pegasus
FANDOM: Stargate Atlantis
PAIRING: John/Rodney, Jack/Daniel
RATING: currently R
WARNING: Vampires, biting, possible spoilers for SGA season 1 pilot.

Summary

There are many legends told about vampires but very few of them are based on fact. Once they were revered, even worshiped, before a few rebels and outcasts convinced humanity that they meant us harm. Now they walk among us, hidden, neither angels or demons. They remember the things that humanity has forgotten and are ready to protect us if needed. The word we’re looking for is guardian.
