Welcome to National Poetry Month! The plan is that I'll post a new poem every day. Here's hoping it works out. (Some of these may be repeats from last year, I'm afraid, because I don't remember what I posted last year.)

Okay, so. Seanan McGuire is one of my favorite filkers out there. She has a livejournal (
cadhla)--you can find her there or at her website. Every so often, she runs rounds of what she calls "Iron Poet," wherein readers give her a three word prompt and she comes back with a poem of some type. This past round, I saw the notice go up in time to prompt her with "Willow, Power, and Midnight".
THIS is what she came back with.
Go. Read. Comment and tell her of her awesomeness.
Meanwhile, I'm going to cuddle Gabe & Fiona (stuffed Fiona, live!Fiona is too far away--and also I don't want to make
phoenixsansfyr sick), look for the tag I wrote and thought had posted before Con, and bask in the glow of having this AWESOME thing written for ME.

Memeage to take my mind off
Monday, 4 February 2008 22:56I was pretty stressed when I started this originally, and my flist was randomly popping up with people being tagged "7 Things" memes, so I decided to take a stab at it to take my mind off of the real world. Months have passed (seriously, I started this shit in OCTOBER), but I still had it saved, and it turns out that I still want to do it. (Sorry for spamming your flists three times in a day.)
So. Seven stated interests, explained by me.

Five Songs on My iPod
Monday, 4 February 2008 20:16I've been feeling the need to go through the old memes again, and I did this one way back in 2007--I think it was when I'd first moved back into the dorms, which puts it sometime in the Spring semester of '07.
Anyway, time to do it again.

20 Things to 20 People, take 2
Wednesday, 16 January 2008 23:34The last time I did this was in April of the dead-and-not-lamented past year. I figure it's about time to do it again.
The rules are simple:
1 - List 20 things that you want to say to people, but never will.
2 - Don't say who they are.
3 - Please do not assume that anything is about you.
4 - If you are not 110% convinced... it's probably not you.

Writing Quiz
Wednesday, 16 January 2008 20:31Found this on my flist, and thought the results would be interesting. I like talking about writing, and how I write.

I think everyone here could use some cheering
Tuesday, 1 January 2008 00:00Okay, I don't know how everyone else's days/weeks/months have been going, but I know that I need some love on my flist today.
So I'm totally going to steal
skoosiepants's love list, make my own, and encourage (read: beg/plead/demand/whatever will get you to post your love list in comments) you to post your list of things you love in comments whenever you stumble across this on your flist.
ETA: You know what, the internet needs love. So. I'm making this public.
I will also periodically update this list, which was started in June of 2007.
So. the List of Laura's Loves:
( I, Laura, love... )

The Jellybean Song
Monday, 29 October 2007 16:15Hey! Sorry it's taken so long to make you guys Internet famous, but finally, I've got The Jellybean Song uploaded to sendspace. It can now be downloaded for your listening pleasure, in .wav format (because, despite being the "producer" of the song, I still don't know how to convert it from .wav to something like .mp3).
