Hello from Israel!
By now I’ve sailed the sea of Galilee, hiked Nimrod Fortress, and eaten an olive straight from an olive tree. Onward to float in the Dead Sea!
Hope you are all having a lovely time wherever you are.

Ficlet Prompt: Derby
Note: I’m really glad you requested this! For now, here’s a bit of a drabble I wrote a while back for my Live Prompts event… I will most likely add more later! I also would very much like to write about adult Ty someday soon. :)
“Sisters are stupid,” said Ty one hot day in the middle of July. “I dunno,” said Michael, dangling his toes in the water, watching the river...

Ficlet Prompt: Sleepover
“No,” said Taz.
“No choice!” sang February. “It’s been mandated by the Commander. A special celebration of all of the fabulous women aboard this starship. No boys allowed. Just popcorn, chick flicks, gossip, makeovers – it’s going to be so much fun!”
“I don’t like any of those things,” said Taz. “And who’s idiota idea was this?”
“Mine!” February said proudly. “I told...

Ficlet Prompt: V-Day
While Megagirl did not need to indulge in the inefficient human process of eating food to produce energy, she was a fixture at mealtimes in the mess hall aboard Starship 15A-2. She called it research, a part of her ongoing project to understand just what it was that made humans function the way they did. Tootsie called it “trying to fit in.” Either way, she was there each morning, 700 hours...

Ficlet Prompt: Hope
It was the worst devastation Taz had seen in years.
An entire planet, tiny, harmless, one of the fledgling colonies the G.L.E.E. had begun in an effort to find a new home for the soon-to-be homeless citizens of a dying Earth. The colonies had been strategically scattered throughout the galaxy in the hopes of making them as difficult to find as possible.
But the robots had found this one.

I'm off to Israel!
I’ll be spending the next two weeks eating falafel, riding camels and floating in the Dead Sea. I’ve queued up some fics for you, so you don’t forget me while I’m gone… have a wonderful two weeks, everyone!
riseuplikeangels asked: *begs for more of Death Do Us Part* *literally BEGS* *I'll write you anything or do anything you want slkghlkdhfglkldhg*
liztrade asked: Hey Karri! I know it seems like I say 'thank you' a lot, but I'm going to have to say it again. Your stories have helped me become a better writer. I was looking back on my first fanfic, and it's pretty awful. I wrote that before I started reading LTD, and I feel like I've grown significantly since July. The way you write about characters has helped me make my own stories...
ohdeadwizardgod asked: Hi there! Just so you know, I am insanely jealous of you going to Vienna, as I have wanted to go there for most of my life. So; I hope you have/had a fantastic time there, because I am not likely to go there anytime in the near future. Or anytime in the not-so-near future, either. Yay. Also, I'm really looking forward to the last part of Stars Passing By, even though I'm really sad that...
carliefromcatering asked: I felt like popping by your ask and informing you that you were QUALITY. <3

Cough Syrup on repeat.
On this week’s Glee:
I have serious issues with some of the ideas they put forward about suicide/depression.
Was there a competition in this episode? I mean really.
The only storyline dumber than Finn and Rachel getting married is this Sue pregnancy ridiculousness.
The “Cough Syrup” sequence was terrifying and very effectively done.
Also:
If Seblaine happens that might be...

30 Days of Sherlock challenge
liztrade:
Day 15- Your favorite Sherlock fic
This is a weird question for me to answer as I haven’t read the really popular ones that are on fanfiction.net. I’m also pretty picky when it comes to fanfiction, as I want the characters to be written like they are in the original material.
Right now, at this moment, I’m going to say Death Do Us Part. If Karri writes more, I know that it will be...

I know it’s been quiet around my blog lately. I’ve been busy stockpiling fics for you to enjoy while I am away in Israel!
Things you can look forward to:
the end of Stars Passing By
more of The Ranger and the Doctor
ALL the requests still in my inbox
more of that Sherlock fic I haven’t forgotten about???
You guys are going to be so sick of me by the time I get back.
lasciviensintardis asked: How do you characterise fictional characters that you didn't invent accurately? I mean, how do you make the characters in fanfiction realistic?
liztrade asked: I'm going to regret asking this, but... How many parts are left in Stars Passing By?

Carlie’s Special Talent!
(I forgot the cover page at school)
This is a book I wrote and illustrated for my Drawing class. It is loosely based on my friend Carlie, and the other characters are based on members of Pedro’s Army. Bear in mind that this is a children’s book, and is therefore ridiculously cheesy. Enjoy!

It's going to be a Stars Passing By Valentine's...
(That is my cheerful, upbeat way of telling you that SPB is not yet ready… I really want to get this chapter right, and I’m totally wiped at the moment and not able to trust my instincts… so look for it for sure tomorrow, my Valentine’s gift to you.)
To beg your forgiveness, a teaser:

Rosie closed her eyes and was...
starkidsconfessions asked: Oh G-d, Karri... So, I just finished re-reading 'Learning to Dance,' and I hope you know that it's just as heartbreakingly, awesomely, realistically beautiful the second time around. Well, that, and this time I didn't have to wait on updates to keep me going haha. But really, it's a work of art Karri, just a lovely work of art. Watching the musical will never be the same,...
