Fannish heads-up and December posting meme

frith_in_thorns and I have started uploading our Fallen London AU fics to AO3. We'll be doing them one or two at a time over the next few days/next week or two, so as not to spam people. Eventually they will all be listed in chronological order at the series landing page. (There are only a couple there so far, though.)

More December meme!

fitzwiggity asked: If you had to pick anywhere else in the world to live, besides Alaska, where would it be and why?

I actually think I'd be pretty happy living in most places that are northerly, cool, and mountainous. The places I've gone so far that really appealed to me are Vermont, Wales, Switzerland, and British Columbia. I think climate is probably one of my big criteria, if I did move somewhere else -- well, obviously practical concerns would also be an issue, such as available jobs, cost of housing and so forth, but if we're going strictly for fantasy-moving, I can't really see myself living somewhere hot and humid for any length of time. I know many people live in hot places and really like them, but I would prefer just to visit, thanks. On the other hand, give me a cool climate with pretty scenery, and I'm there. :)

Lots of Alaskans retire to Washington, Minnesota, Michigan and places of that nature, basically for that reason -- same nice scenery, but milder winters.

Vermont might be at the top of my list for nice places to live that I could move to without having to deal with immigration restrictions.
