DVD commentary thingy

[wordplay]

I mentioned a few days ago that someone had contacted me about doing a DVD commentary for my Weir/Zelenka fic, and today mirabile_dictu posted what she'd been working on here. I was really quite taken aback when she contacted me and was so pleased by what she had to say about the story; she was very kind. Beyond that, though, it's a really gratifying thing to see in greater depth exactly what an astute reader found noteworthy about something you've written. I feel extremely lucky to have enjoyed that, and she was so gracious about it, and it's been just really quite cool.

She mentioned in the writeup that she'd had to Google to find out where the lyrics came from, because I suck and was sliding in at the last moment and in my haste to get the story up, forgot to provide the actual source for the song lyrics that I was obviously quoting¹. Yep, that's "Amaze Me" from Girlyman with quite possibly the most eerily perfect lyrics for a fic EVER, and here's a YSI link to the song.


¹ I know, I know, my timing is the suckiest ever. I honestly can't believe I did that just in time for everyone to become ultra-sensitive about referenced material in fic.

I think her comments were spot on, and that she was able to see many of the themes that you placed in the story, and many of the references to historical and cultural events, is a testament to just how well-written the story is. You go!

Also, Yay Girlyman!
