...happiness is an evening at home in soft Tibet hoodie and a pair of ripped jeans, happy kitties snuggled 'round.

If I were to draw John Sheppard, I wouldn't use photo refs. Not at first. To make my life easier, I'd copy other drawings.

If I were to draw John Sheppard.

Did a hunt, and found that not all John Sheppard art is created equal. A couple I'd copy:

Crysothemis' work

Or WolfenM's (yes, I know that's Rodney)


The colored pencils are out and there's an outline of Sheppard in blue and green because I'm in an odd place with writing at the moment. I have fleeting fics that flicker across my mind, too quick to capture.

Then when I start to write, I get partway through and shut down.

It's not just that I run out of energy (though often I am writing late at night). The story just ... clicks off. Like a candle that's snuffed.

Never had this problem before. It could be reflection of how scattered my energies have been. And still are.

Not sure what to do about it. I have a Cho story (Mentalist fandom) that wants to be written, and the occasional SGA ficlet niggles at me. It's getting a little frustrating.

The best thing about scientists is that they know when to change their minds....

Scientists skeptical of the idea that humans could cause global climate change run in-depth data collection and confirm: yes, indeed it's true.

Richard Muller, a physicist and climate change skeptic who founded the Berkeley Earth Surface Temperature (BEST) project, said he was surprised by the findings. "We were not expecting this, but as scientists, it is our duty to let the evidence change our minds." He added that he now considers himself a "converted skeptic" and his views had undergone a "total turnaround" in a short space of time.
