FLIST LOVE meme :)

This is a lovely idea that I picked up from [livejournal.com profile] ancabell.



[livejournal.com profile] _cee: She never friended me back, so she won't see this, but I just have to say she is one of the best authors I have ever had the chance to read. Not just in the fandom - anywhere. Her psychological insight and the ability to create haunting images and unforgettable atmosphere is absolutely stunning. I don't know much about her as a person, but I am a happy member of her fan club, content to worship from a distance.;)

[livejournal.com profile] akashaelfwitch: The first LJ-friend I have met in person! We are both fervent A/L shippers, and we first met on the L_A_S Yahoo!Group, where she did the banners I received for my poem and drabble in a fic challenge. Then, some months later, it turned out that we both live in Chicago!! And we have seen both History of Violence and Elizabethtown together!!!
Akasha is a very sweet, warm-hearted person, and I love spending time in her company - even if I am far too tempted to steal her Aragorn purse! ;P

[livejournal.com profile] aliwantisanelf: Again, I am a happy fanclub member here.;) I don't know much about Al personally, but I adore her sense of humor and squee endlessly over her picture caption series. Yes, I know I'm bad at commenting... (*blushes*) but I read every single one, and they often make my day.:D

[livejournal.com profile] ancabell: Here is another amazing writer, who has moved me to tears countless times. One of the first people that seduced me into the V/O fandom.;) She doesn't post too often, but always has a warm spot in my heart...

[livejournal.com profile] chaosmanor: What can I say, again? A big name in the fandom, and someone I admire - in equal measure for her talent, courage, open-mindedness and dedication to the queer community. Oh, and she was the one who made me realize I could actually read mpreg.;) Or other unusual stuff - as long as it's well and honestly written. My respect! *bows*

[livejournal.com profile] crimsonsenya: My "evil doppelgaenger";P - or, to put it more mildly, identical double.:D Yes, we do look like twin sisters. Hard to say how far the similarities go beneath the surface - but some of her stunning fics hint at depths of soulful anguish that are almost too familiar... *sigh*

[livejournal.com profile] cynical_terror: The heart and soul of the Vigorli fandom for me. A fascinating, multitalented girl with a brilliant mind and a huge, loving heart. Life has not been easy for her lately, and I wish I could express how sorry I am... because if she does not deserve to be happy, then no one does. *big, warm hugs*

[livejournal.com profile] darknight999: Almost a lurker, but once she decides to pop on over to her journal and say something, it usually has depth and meaning.;)

[livejournal.com profile] eccentrica74: The latest addition to my flist, actually. Just couldn't resist the lovely manips.;) I hope there's more to come... *blushes and hides*

[livejournal.com profile] gairid: A fellow vampire lover.;) Most people on my flist might not be interested in that, but she writes AMAZING Louis/Lestat slash. It was actually my first slash OTP, even if I have been neglecting it of late (all Viggo's fault... LOL). And I actually discovered LJ through the VC fandom... so [livejournal.com profile] gairid was one of the first people who made me feel at home here. And this shall never be forgotten...

[livejournal.com profile] invisible_dream: Again, I got seduced by some hot, sexy manips.;) We may not have very much in common, but Viggo-lovers should stick together...:D

[livejournal.com profile] marialayne: She hasn't updated in months, and might not again, but still her series "Dancing with the Daffodils" was one of the loveliest Vigorli fics ever...

[livejournal.com profile] marylou_gr: She wrote some good fics, made some lovely colorbars and then disappeared.;) I hope one day she will resurface again...

[livejournal.com profile] miladyhawke: Yes, I might be repeating and paraphrasing myself here, but she is the heart and soul of the A/L fandom. As well as someone I feel I might have a lot to discuss with, if only she could find the time.;) Let's hope RL allows that to happen some day...

[livejournal.com profile] namarie120: A gracious lady who friended me because of some silly thing I wrote... and only then did I discover what a wonderful writer SHE is. AND we are going to see each other in December!!! *huge, happy smile*

[livejournal.com profile] niennas_dreams: Someone who means a lot, and has the potential of becoming a really close friend... (as well as one of my favorite authors) Unfortunately also someone I am quite worried about, because of her prolonged silence. WHERE ARE YOU???!!!

[livejournal.com profile] nitw1t: Oh, the joy and hotness of her Vigorli fics!... Even if she doesn't write any more, there's enough to stay in my fond memories for ever...

[livejournal.com profile] rainweaver13: I know this is getting very repetitive, but Rain is another one of these rare authors I not only admire, but worship. One of those who make me think: "why isn't she writing original fiction and winning literary prizes like she deserves?" - but then realize that I would feel utterly miserable if she stopped writing Vigorli.;) Which she hopefully won't... *crosses fingers*

[livejournal.com profile] razzleslash: Here we go again. Yeah, basically what I said above.;) A true bastion of the fandom. With a charming touch of craziness that somehow makes the walking embodiment of literary perfection more believable... (sorry for the senseless babble - it's getting late here, and I'm trying to make everyone feel unique... which they are - I am just slowly running out of creative ways to say it...;P)

[livejournal.com profile] romi: Here I should probably write a novel - and I would, if only I didn't have to go to bed in about 20 minutes.:/ Romi has been such a wonderful, supportive friend to me for so long, and we have so much in common, that I almost feel like we had known each other since childhood. Which is ridiculous, of course - but sometimes people just have this inexplicable connection. I love her writing too, but I love it more as an expression of a sensitivity (AND sensuality) very similar to my own than as writing in itself - if I am making any sense here. In other words, it feels too close to my perceptions somehow to be able to judge it on a purely literary level (not that I am equipped to be a judge of anybody's literary efforts anyway). I am simply overtaken by emotion - and the same thing happens when I try to form in my mind a clear, objective picture of Romi as a person. Whatever that means...

[livejournal.com profile] spank_an_elf: Another author whose volume and diversity overwhelms me. I owe her many happy hours of reading, in those lovely times when I first dived headlong into the fandom.;)

OK... that's definitely it for today. This thing took me three hours!!! I should have known... but then I am always like that. The concept of time defeats me.;) I only ever mean to read/write for a few moments... and then, mysteriously, the morning/afternoon/evening/night is over. *a profound sigh of exasperation, closely followed by a yawn* :D

you're a wonderful wonderful girl! ♥

*hugs her twin*
Thank you for having read my fics! And speaking of which I think I saw a A/L fic of yours a couple of days ago. I haven't been too much around yet but it is on my ficread list.

*hugs back*
The one I posted a few days ago is actually a threesome, with Boromir! *gasp* Not sure how you feel about that - I am sort of shocked at myself for writing it... lol.
And I do wish you were around more often.;)

You're much too sweet, dolly. (((hugs tight)))

[identity profile] romi.livejournal.com 2005-10-18 03:47 pm (UTC)(link)
All of this meme tells a tale of how kind and giving you are, but also that you 'see' the people you encounter. That is a gift. I am honored to be on this list, and what you say about me is very interesting. Thank you.
Hugs, my sweet.

I do hope I really see the people, not just my vague and creative theories about them.;) It is so easy to invent some non-existent personalities over the internet... lol.
*hugs back*

*many many many hugs*
