The Astonishing Persistence of Memory

I'm sure some of y'all have heard about sgabigbang. It was a huge thing with lots of novel length fic centered around our favorite SGA characters. My favorite writer, tielan, wrote an amazing John/Teyla story for it. It's meant to have three parts when complete (insane).

Anyway, I read the story, loved it. She asked me to create a banner for the "bonus features" event going on. It was quite last minute, and she's like 15 hrs ahead of me as far as time zones. However, I like her fic a whole heck of a lot, so I told her I'd see if I could come up with something.

At work that day, it was pitifully slow, so I decided to see if I could sketch something out. I decided to use a simplified version of the idea I had for an illustration I planned on doing for the story. I drew it on relatively large Post-It note, took it home, scanned it, and then added text and texture (from jeyla4ever ) in Photoshop CS2. Typestyles are Houston Pen (script) and Adobe Garamond Pro.

The point is that y'all should go check out this story. The Q&A is rather interesting, too. I like reading and writing about the writing process.

Isis Awards

"...the Isis Awards were created to showcase those ships in Stargate fandom that don't get quite as much attention as others on the various fanfiction archives and in fandom-wide awards."
 

Nominations are now open. I'm going to try and nominate as much Ronon/Keller fic as possible, just because, well, it's my favorite ship right now. Also, it's the new ship on the block this year, so I feel it needs the support.
