My 1000th post
Dec. 2nd, 2004 12:29 amOn Sunday, quite by accident, I realised I was on my 999th post. (Going by lj-info page: ljArchive says something quite different. I don't know why.) Capital, thought I, a landmark! I never notice these things normally. Now that I have, I should post something large-ish or interesting and informative as No.1000, instead of a disjointed rant re how fantasy writers who try to be decadently aesthetic often fall flat because they have no fashion sense and go for a sort of Hot Topic cheap-lace-and-pleather teenybopper goth effect, or how it snowed prettily this morning but turned to rain before I could get my camera out, or (perennial target these days) Mirage of Blaze. Or at the least, something informative about Mirage of Blaze.
...Which is why I haven't posted now for three days. XD The summary of book 5 turned out 4,000 words, which is longer than many of my fics. Multiply that by 30-something and spell D.O.O.M. with little Final Fantasy-style numbers hanging over my head.
Read to find out why Kikumaru Eiji should never go to Nara on pains of death by spontaneous combustion. (Look, if I don't make the joke, someone will in the comments. It's that simple.)
( Mirage of Blaze Book 5: Dragon God of Nara. Text dump for now, will go up on site once I root out inevitable errors. )
Amazon shipment with books 6-9 (and GB27/DN4) have arrived, btw. In the category of "no one is surprised", Kuwabara mentions in the afterword to book 6 that she got into Japanese history as a hobby... through reading Shiba Ryoutarou. When in doubt, blame the Shinsengumi, that's what I say.
