Eek, help, the stills for White Collar 3x11 & 3x12 are out, and they're everywhere. I will not click on them, I will not, AAAAAAAAA. *tears hair out* (For the record, I do plan to attempt to remain unspoiled for the new season, to the extent that I can manage it -- but January can't get here soon enough! The cut tags are RIGHT THERE! AAAAAAGH!)
Otherwise, life is quiet and pleasant. Most of what I've been doing lately has been a combination of Christmas shopping/gift-making (almost done with that), and revising short stories in the hopes of maybe selling one somewhere. I really do feel like I've leveled up as a writer over the last year or two, in terms of original fic, and I've certainly gotten a whole lot better at revising my stories and spotting their shortcomings. There's something vaguely disheartening at having to write everything at least twice, but on the other hand, the end results are better, so there is that.
Once I get my Highlander exchange story revised/rewritten, I will be aaaallll done with the fannish stuff I signed up to write this year (there wasn't much of it), as well as the bigger stories I wanted to finish, so I intend to PLAY. Actually, for my own reference, here's what I want to tackle before the end of the year (though I expect I won't get around to all of these, or possibly even to most of these):

collarcorner - stuff some stockings, fill a prompt or two
fandom_stocking - write a couple of stocking fills
wc_women_fest - fill a prompt or two from this round; fill one that caught my fancy from last round
whitecollarhc - fill a prompt or two for the current round (there are so many I want to write!)
hc_bingo - I really would like to finish another bingo: 3 stories to go on my current card for a straight line across the middle, one of which is a prompt I'd really like to write ("drowning"), but I think this takes lower priority than fic-gifts for other people, unless an idea really hits me.
