I'm not sure where this came from but it led to Sherlock

Fanfic, for me, is all about getting the characters right.  I’ll state the obvious - that this is completely subjective - just to be safe.  If I’m reading something and I can’t picture the character on screen doing what it is I’m reading about, I usually can’t keep on.  In fact, this is why – with only a single exception so far – I don’t even attempt to write fic; it is much too difficult.
In which I start to talk about fic and end up talking about Sherlock )

A Midsummer Night's Dream

Last night we saw this production of Midsummer Night’s Dream which was pretty standard in spite of itself.

Before I start – quick note to point out that Titania/Ass!Bottom is a variant on Beauty and the Beast – one of the only comedic instances of this pairing perhaps?

These particular shadows did not actually offend, just creeped me out on a couple of points. )

I have just had a very strange experience

I typed Shakespeare into LJ's search field.  I really did not expect this to elicit strange results - but it did.  Try it - it is fascinating.  Please report back.
