I confess, I find gossip dull. wildernessguru comes home from work with the latest about this and that co-worker and even if I've met them, wow, I don't care.

I confess, I find negative gossip depressing. wildernessguru comes home from work with news about the latest screw-ups in this or that person's work or personal life and especially if I've met them, wow, I really don't want to hear it. It makes me want to help them, and if I can't, it leaves me feeling helpless and unhappy.

There's a reason I'm always out of the loop. In fandom and out of fandom. I miss WG telling me about world news, sigh.

I have 2,700 words of the next part of Out Of Bounds (a.k.a. the skating fic) done. You guys want it, or would you like to wait for the next part?

Offtop: Translation Request

[reganapf.livejournal.com]

Hello!
Sorry for offtop, but I've already sent you e-mail and I'm afraid that the letter might be regarded as a spam. So, I repeat the letter.
I am Regana and I am an Russian fic-reader and translator. I'd like to ask you to allow me to translate one of your HP-fics into Russian language. I mean "Guy Talk". Although I don't really like Harry/Ron pairing but you've described this pair so magnificent that I could not leave this fic and don't share it with other Russian fans.
Also if you give me permission for translation can I post the text to some Russian archives?

Could you please send me your answer to my e-mail regana@bk.ru or post it here.

Thank you for your excellent job.

Regana

Regana, I apologize, I haven't checked my spam filter in a million years. Nothing makes me happier than translations. I consider it an honor and a thrill. Please, please, please translate "Guy Talk" -- and let me know if you need anything from me. Also, I announce translations here and upload copies of translations to my website with a link to wherever you post them. So let me know when it's complete and where you'd like me to link to. I have some friends who are Russian and would like to read it.

Thank you again, and good luck. I look forward to it.
