fannishliss: old motel sign says motel beer eat (Default)
here is an expose on my fannishness.... sitting at breakfast, eating beans on toast. (Yes I am American, but such an Anglophile that if at all possible I will eat as British as I can)

Listening to In My Time of Dying by Beth and April Stevens, and then by Josh White. (If you don't know who Josh White is, or have never heard him sing, please do yourself the favor of looking him up)

Then I put on "In the Light" and my husband and I have the conversation: This is John Paul Jones saying hey, no, I'm not just a super competent studio guy, I really am in Led Zeppelin, I'm just as freaky as Jimmy Page, listen to JUST HOW FREAKY I REALLY AM.

Then one of my favorite moments in all of Zeppelin comes on -- during the super freaky and totally psychedelic In the Light, and Jimmy and Jonesy are trying to outfreak each other, Robert suddenly goes "sh bop a do!" which to me is part and parcel of why Led Zeppelin to this day remain one of the most compelling rock groups of all time, the way they traversed and build connections across all the musical genres of their day.

So then I remembered this little story I wrote in my Supernatural, post 5.22 verse, with Dean and Lisa during the year that Sammy was gone. And I totally moved myself to tears. Yes, this story got just one comment, but it was exactly what I was trying to accomplish.

title: "His Very Absence"
author: [livejournal.com profile] fannishliss
genre, characters: Gen -- Lisa meets Kat
spoilers/setting:  s6/ early s7 timeline
rating: g
words: 2000

Summary:  Kat calls Lisa, trying to get in touch with someone she insists Lisa should know.

Author's Note:This story is for [info]desertport, who requested something about Kat from Asylum 1.10,  with the phrase "I dote on his very absence" (Merchant of Venice I.ii). The story of how she became a Hunter can be found in my Women of SPN story, Kat and the Case of the Cursed Campground, but you don't need to have read that to understand this.

I would love to see your favorite userpics that have both Sam and Dean looking badass, comical, brotherly or in love, what have you.  :P

I'd love to add a great Sam and Dean pic to my collection, and would of course credit the maker. :)


Currently I have 37 userpics.
Men:(Ken dolls count as men here :P  )  19
Women: 9  (Lisa is in there twice with Dean)
Animals: 4 (including Cow and Psyduck)
Inanimate Objects: 6* 
(*My Firebird objects to being counted as an object, but counting her as a Woman or an Animal isn't right either.  sorry, Rhianan.)

How many are cartoons? 6 not including griseldajane's painting
How many are dolls (or other small toys):  4 (Rhianan doesn't mind being a Toy but she is much larger than a Matchbox car.  And more expensive to care for.)

 Feel free to comment on any trends you see in my userpics!

title: "Over You"
author: [livejournal.com profile] fannishliss 
pairing: Lisa/Dean
rating: g
spoilers: inspired by a quote from 6.14
summary:  This is an original song Lisa might sing to Dean

download from 4 shared:
http://www.4shared.com/audio/if0gPNoY/Over_You.html

This link will be good for 30 days -- if you want it after that please comment. 

I finished my song today!!!

It is called "Over You" which is based on a quote from Mannequin 3:The Reckoning.  (my favorite ep title ever)
It is from Lisa's pov and is about her relationship with Dean. It is canon-compliant and therefore sad. I think of it as "slow rock."  Please let me know what you think of it, since it represents many hours of work to work up a song like this in garageband.   Comments make it all worthwhile!

I also re-recorded the vocal track for "Song for Baby" so if you are curious or if you want slightly better quality than the old version, download this one.  My new computer has a much better microphone and doesn't make that whirring cricket noise anymore!

I hope you enjoy!!!  :)

y'all, I am sick in bed and my brain is writing a song to Dean from Lisa's pov.
If I go through the trouble of working it up on garageband, how many of you will download and comment* on it? 
it's a big difference from writing the song on my laptop to actually mixing and recording it. 
song is canon compliant, sad, and has a "slow-rock" feel.  :P

*PS, comments like, "this is not my usual thing, but" are totally fair by me.  :)
fannishliss: old motel sign says motel beer eat (Default)

The title is funny to me, because I actually watched Mannequin when it came out.  Very romantic for me as a teen!  :P  But also, this ep was intensely creepy for me.  I am afraid of mannequins.  O_O  One of the scariest eps of Kolchak the Nightstalker is when dress mannequins come to life and try to kill Kolchak.  Flash back to me at age six, on the couch, peeping out from under my blanket.    I also had a really great creepy comic book where the woman who was trapped in a department store with a werewolf after her, turned out to be a mannequin in a Halloween display window!  I must've read that comic a hundred times.  creepy!!!!!!

Anyways, here's my review -- I liked it a lot!

The Qualities of Angels

Initially, upon reading this book, I thought it would make an excellent prompt table for stories about Castiel.  In actuality, it has become a prompt table for stories about Dean and his attempt to make a new life after losing Sam in the post-5.22 Promise Verse.  Castiel is still lurking behind the scenes though.

endurance      courage         compassion        comfort        healing      



The Noble Life:

I'm 3,700 words into a crazy large chapter -- it's the denouement of the Dean storyline, so you kind of already know that Sam shows up at the end, yay!!!  It's from Castiel's pov which is fun, and it refers back to Sam's wacky adventures that I haven't quite tackled yet.  So.  Sam has to have several big adventures.... do y'all want to see Dean's denouement at the very end, to keep it all chronological, or whenever I get this chapter completed?  Castiel, of course, lives outside of time.... 

and it's called "weary head to rest"  YAY OMG TEARS OF JOY.
