Hi, fandom! Hi! Hi!

Oh, I think it's time for me to stop being reclusive! After we moved, I found that I just wanted to tuck up into the woods and hide a bit. Which was fine, but I think it has stopped being healthy. Erm.

Indiana! Gorgeous, woodsy, feels very good after the post-industrial wasteland we left behind. Am currently playing with a small child for money, which is v. fab. Reading as many Victorian novels as I can - lurrrved Adam Bede, which I finished in about four days. Was bored absolutely by Portrait of a Lady, which I expected - I don't think Henry James will ever be one of my own. Am now investigating Vanity Fair, which is a nice bit of fluff, though not entirely to my loving.

But mainly hobbits! Which is what I've been doing while not journaling. Thanks to my withdrawal from social life, I now have nearly twenty thousand words of angsty cracky postquest au-age. Which I shall begin posting shortly, I hope, if I can keep on a-rolling.

Maybe tonight I'll finally open up my Dreamwidth invite code, and start making the move. I don't know - I rather expect I'll stay on eljay for the summer. My internet connection out here in rural land is not as good as it could be, and I'm not sure I want the hassle of trying to port files over such a shaky connection. So I'm thinking that autumn will be moving time.

To me it makes not a whit of difference, since I'm still following you on LJ, but you should know that one selling point of DW is that they have their own software to move your whole LJ to DW. Also, you can post to both journals at once (or even to more journals, if you have more LJ-style journals on IJ or JF) through the DW interface.

Oh, I do know it - I just don't want to deal with tech wrangling atm. I intend to ultimately live there and mirror here, but I don't really have itchy feet, and this internet is sooo finicky.

I'm a middle-aged technophobe, and I found it was really easy to get DW set up, post there, and cross-post.

I'm glad to hear it's an easy system to navigate!
