Round up - Lazy Weekend

Listening: I spent a lot of this weekend in back episodes of Be the Serpent , a podcast of extreme literary merit, which talks about writing and tropes and fanfic and is generally a delightful group of cackling writers openly discussing how character and sex can be written about in ways that intertwine and make both better.
Their recommendations sent me down a rabbit hole - I know that I got to their podcast via Alex Rowland's tumblr, which means we probably overlapped in fannish circles, and she's the author of the book I am currently reading, Conspiracy of Truths. But I don't know how I started listening to the podcast and then didn't realize for several episodes that she's the American of the trio. Just, one of those fannish journeys that you take slowly down the road and then look up and are like, oh, here's where I am now.
Reading: Peacemaker by astolat which is *not* a re-read for me, actually. I dipped my toes in the Transformers fic realm a bit a while back and now I'm post-Venom and can no longer deny being a monsterfucker, so I'm going back thru her stuff and damn this is sweet and porny and adorable.
