Bennu's Nest: June 2013
http://bennusnest.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Monday, 24 June 2013. Cosplay Spotlight: Lucy/Nyu (Elfen Lied). Costume 2 (black dress). My fifth cosplay and the one where I learned that you cannot sew jersey. You just can’t. I’m sure there’s probably a way to do it without having your sewing machine chew it up and spit it back out, but you have to be a rocket scientist to figure it out. Once I have become a rocket scientist, I will be completely redoing the top of the dress. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Magic Monsters Dominions and Destiny. I write st...

Bennu's Nest: July 2014
http://bennusnest.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, 24 July 2014. Fifty Shades of Grey Theatrical Trailer – First Impressions. I feel like there should be an air raid siren sounding ominously somewhere in the distance. People scurrying for the bunkers as the first phallic shaped planes fly overhead, dropping leather bombs and heat-seeking sex toy missiles, while a parade of inner goddesses sing like a choir of inappropriately dressed angels in the background. Never mind the details though. Let’s just get to the ultimate question. But thinking ba...

Bennu's Nest: October 2014
http://bennusnest.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, 2 October 2014. Being Promiscuous in the Oceans of Shipping. So in between seeing my therapist and failing to write more of my crossover, I’m part of a group on facebook for fanfiction writers. As you might imagine, this is a lively group, and interesting topics of discussion frequently pop up. One such topic, was this one which popped up yesterday:. 8220;What do you guys feel about homosexual/yaoi fanfictions? But then there is the great ocean of Yu-Gi-Oh! No One True Pairing? So when it came ...

Characters set off confetti cannons and balloons drop down from the ceiling* Okay, it’s a bit late, but shh – I’m celebrating! So now it's time to spread some of that joy to others.

His fingers, quivering, reached up and touched the...

Bennu's Nest: September 2014
http://bennusnest.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, 25 September 2014. Cosplay Spotlight: TARDIS (Doctor Who). I usually wear black tights and black flats with this outfit. I discovered while at the Nationals that the bras I had brought with me came up over the top of the dress, necessitating the addition of two safety pins. I normally keep my skin fair with little colour, but I try to play up my eyes with dark blues and silver. Nationals 2011) Group Doctor Who shot! Nationals 2011) TARDIS down for maintenance. Thursday, 18 September 2014. I fee...

Bennu's Nest: November 2013
http://bennusnest.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Saturday, 23 November 2013. The Irrational Fears of Children (or what monsters we really should have been scared of in our younger years). Re-watching childhood cartoons is a curious business. Obviously I’ve never stopped watching cartoons, but there is a crucial distinction between cartoons aimed at children and cartoons aimed at adults (a distinction that can be best summed up in the first five minutes of episode 1 of Elfen Lied. But in between the fun stuff, there was the stuff that terrified you into...

Bennu's Nest: April 2014
http://bennusnest.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, 27 April 2014. The Camp fire is dying down: The Unknown Dangers of Chick Lit. Fanfic that had a pretty solid plot behind it but suffered from terrible writing when I first came up with the idea seven years ago. And So This Is, my first foray into chick lit, which ended up staggering to a halt on fictionpress once I reached university. In this case, the characters were pretty well formed, but the plotline was lacking something. I am the world's stupidest author. Sunday, 20 April 2014. The tights w...
