Glen Hansard, quite simply, IS music.
Just got back from one of the most intense and yet intimate concert experiences of my life.
No one should be able to contain as much passion as this gorgeous Irishman puts into his songs. Nor break so many strings.
Really. Do yourself a favour and look him up. Or watch Once. Which you should do anyway.
*reeling from musical love right now*

Loonybee: Dodgy Dealings? →
loonybee:
Before Junior and his dad had a little conversation, Junior happened to have one with our very own PA mama Karri. I have watched the security footage of this conversation in Starship 15A2 and have written down what was said.
Here follows the conversation held between Junior and Karri about…

Learning to Dance 30 Day Challenge!

Day 30: What you love about Learning To Dance
While there are so many Tup origin stories out there (I’m not about to bash them; I’ve written one myself), LTD is like a full length novel. Karri took the characters from their goofy state in Starship and made them into fully fleshed characters with a lot of emotional and physical baggage. She wrote characters that we love...

Thinking about making a Doctor/Rose playlist.
No I’m not over it yet (and yes, I know how things turn out for them). I can’t help it guys.
Songs so far:
Love Don’t Roam (Doctor Who soundtrack)
Happy Ending (Mika)
You and Me (Lifehouse)
Any other suggestions/ideas for this beautifully tragic love story?
flyinginafriendshipship asked: Um, do you know what time Pedro's Army normally tinychat? I'd love to join everyone, but timezones are cruel. By the way, I just finished Learning To Dance(like I should have done ages ago). It should be published; it's that good.
sham-woohoo asked: Hey, umm so Samie's Leaving for a month and the Pa has decided to spam her 10x a day, and I was wondering of you could get the message out to the whole army because we all follow you. Thank you! <3 Sam

From Chapter 9:
The buzzing rang still louder in her ears as Taz and Up stared at each other, trying to comprehend the row of iron bars between them. The other ensigns turned around, realizing that something had gone wrong.
Taz stood very still, clutching the pulsing warp core to her chest, and watched with an odd sense of detachment as Up tapped the...

Imposing a temporary Tumblr ban on myself again until after I watch Glee tomorrow. I’ll try not to spam you with reactions when I get back.
Thank you, my lovelies, for all your happy-making comments on Part 5 of SPB already. <3

LTD Extra: Stars Passing By (Part 5)
Stars Passing By will tell the story of Tripp and Rosie, two of the original characters from my Starship fanfic Learning to Dance. You can find parts 1-4 here.
Short and just a little bit sweet this week. Thank you for reading. <3

awesomesaucegwen-deactivated201 asked: Karri, how many followers do you have?
I'm totally willing to make as many email and Tumblr accounts it takes for you to have at least 500.
But you probably have more than that <3

Well Karri you did say that Tripp’s body was never found… maybe Stars Passing By can have a happy ending? (please *cue puppy dog eyes* You know you want to Karri… :D). x
I can’t. I really, really, can’t. Do not hold out hope for this.
alittlebitofawesome asked: Just thought I'd let you know that the Doctor Who list you reblogged is missing the first episode of season 3, Smith and Jones. The Runaway Bride was the christmas special after season 2.
carliehitachiin replied to your post: Today I bought pencils!
I would have thought that the pencils came with erasers……I feel like everything I know about life has been thrown into question.
Not these pencils… these pencils are way too badass to bother with erasers.

I’m learning! Thank you!

Karri doesn't own a pencil...
… so this is the best I could do with my Taz from Ree’s livestream last night. The benefit is, I can still see the building blocks, and hence learn from them.
Ree, thanks for the awesome tutorial on shapes and life and things - no matter what you say, you do have a way with words. I wish I could have stayed for the whole thing (but by 3:30am my bed was calling me)! <3
