What Fandom has taught me;

1) Bashers are living, breathing, nerve-grating proof that the practice of inbreeding is alive and well equipped with Internet access.

2) Canon is to be learned, respected, and relied upon to a point. That does not make it a religion.

3) The authors/artists can't make everyone happy. The fanfic authors shouldn't even bother trying.

For those who like their Zutara steeped in AU weirdness, with two cubes (squares!) of lame intentions and a pinch of magic.

Attention readers:

I ATEN'T DEAD.

That’s right, folks, Vertigo is still up and kickin’, and “No Map” is being written. But with job hunting, car shopping, and other real life buggery polluting my schedule, it’s hard to score some private time with the pencil. For those who absolutely must get their tempestuous tea dose (or those who are just plain bored and curious), I suggest a visit to The Seventh Cup LJ café. There I’ll be posting Tempest excerpts, drabbles, quotes, Q&A, and whatever else whimsy brews. Check out the Q&A Grill for direct, and passably immediate, answers to questions. (But beware asking about updates.)

Over and out.
