Best goddamn laugh I've had in a couple of days: anti-fanfic bingo!

Coincidentally enough, I just found my long-lost jump drive with my notes for a moderately ambitious Torchwood fanfic. Yep, I'm going to do what many of my friends think I'm incapable of: write a genfic1. Worse yet, I'm still intending to tackle it as a screenplay. I'm mad, I tell you. Quite, quite mad.

And please, oh please, don't leave a comment asking me if I've seen Torchwood 2x01/telling me how awesome it is. I haven't seen it and I'm sure it is awesome, but my husband is already badly distracted by my sobbing into the keyboard and moaning that life was so much easier without a conscience. Let's not make things any worse for either of us, 'kay?

Ask me on the 26th. :)

PS. Meanwhile, I've started flinging emails to a couple of dealers who are going to be at G1, asking after their interest in the B7 'zines. I figure that shipping 'em to Gally won't cost too much and if any sale falls through at the last minute, my loss will be the charity auction's gain.

1 - well, genfic in that only canonical naughtiness will be referred to...

I remain unconvinced that it is possible to have torchwood gen.

Talking of Torchwood, possible you don't need torrenting now as the BBC is putting the most recent episode on its website.

Course they might just ban America with an IP block out of spite for not paying a TV licence, I'm not sure! :) Try it and see.

They're IP blocking. Damn them.

Route it through a UK proxy and it'll work. It's what I did when my bank wouldn't let me log into my bank account online when I was in the States.

I do the same for IP blocks the Yanks put on sites I wanr to view. They're pretty dense not to realise people can go through proxies and get around geolocation IP blocks.

Mind you with an anonymous proxy I doubt they'd be able to tell.
