Meanwhile, in Tanzania...
Jun. 5th, 2004 05:39 pmThings I learned in Africa, take 2 (or: preview for the lengthy tale to be written upon my return in ten days or so):
- baboons like white flowers, Rhinos like yellow ones
- Hippos: nature's ballet dancers?
- being friends with Masai results in gifts of beautiful belts
- female circumcision is still overwhelmingly practised in Tanzania
- nagging your passionately missed partner-in-fanfic results in beautiful entries.
Tomorrow, we'll leave the Ngorongoro area, and I don't know whether the power of the net will be with me again, though I hope so. Meanwhile, if someone would be so kind as to collect HP reviews? Also, to Andraste: would you beta my Sandman/B5 story when I get pack?

Cute!

I'm not surprised.
And now, for something totally off-topic, I can't remember how much of a HP fan you are. If so, I have scored two floor mats from my theatre (see my last post), and am giving them away...
there are review links archived...

Date: 2004-06-08 10:14 pm (UTC)Well, you could, but it isn't very catchy *g*. If all else fails, I can beta fic in the uni computer labs - I just don't want to get caught transcribing my own fic there. Answering e-mail is far less likely to be noticed.
I am very much looking forward to the story - especially curious about how you worked Delerium in.
