what in the who now?

+ In department of 'omg this had better be a totally unfounded rumour': Fox to commission a RTD-penned US remake of Torchwood? WHAT. And I am just not thinking about how I would feel if it did turn out that RTD did indeed blow up his old show then go and make a brand new shiny one. May this never come to pass!

+ In happier news, queerlit50 is starting up, similar to 50books_poc. Read some queer authors! Tell me about them! :D My reading list for the next few weeks includes Sarah Waters' Fingersmith, Mary Renault's The Persian Boy, and Ellen Kushner's Swordspoint, so I will probably chat about those over there.

+ Also, oxoniensis's ninth porn battle is taking prompts.

+ eta: Also! The help_haiti auction closes in just over 24 hours. There's a lot of things still available over there very reasonably, and everything's all listed and indexed so it's easy to find something you might like.

I don't even know, re: Torchwood. I think I'd like the idea more if it weren't going to have Jack in it. And if it weren't Fox. But hey, at least it'll get canceled pretty quickly if it actually happens!

The Fingersmith was a good read, though. I think I liked it better than Tipping the Velvet.

Hee, yes, it's some consolation!

The Night Watch is the only Sarah Waters I've read, so I'm looking forward to getting stuck into more. :D
