Okay, so this is what happens when I decide I need to validate the appearances of my ’sonae.

Sadly, haven’t been playing many games or suffering many fits of total geekery lately.
Naturally, as soon as I made that statement, I realized that it wasn’t true. Whoopsie.
My total geekery has taken a slightly different form in the past few weeks, I guess. I’m still really enjoying Eastern Weyr, of course, and acquiring my own set of characters I really enjoy (one is such a crossover dork trip), and I’m looking into some other related fandom misadventure. But my renewed interest in Pern fandom inspired me to pick up Dragonflight and Dragonquest again. Having read those two books, I don’t think I have any desire to keep rereading through the (still-growing) canon. My memory of my sixteen-year-old self’s reaction was accurate: yeah, it worked when I was thirteen, but the writing doesn’t hold up to the world the novels contain.
I played a couple of my favorite Nancy Drew games recently; I suppose I’ll have to give them write-ups of some kind. Not yet! I’ve gotten myself embroiled in something much more serious.
That’s right. I’m in Pern fandom all over again.
