100 Supernatural (6x06, 6x07, 6x08, Seasons 4 & 5, 20in20 Castiel icons)
40 Misha, Jensen, & Jared
25 The Walking Dead
12 Star Wars
20 Pride & Prejudice (1995)
=====
197 icons, total





I'm not all that thrilled with a lot of the Supernatural icons this time. Seems like the characters have spent a lot of time in dimly lit, greenish areas with phones glued to the ears. *shrug* The Walking Dead is a new show for me and I'm still finding my legs color-wise with the show. A little constructive criticism on that would be welcome. I love the outdoors shots but that's never been my strength; guess I'll learn.

I'm ever so slowly making my way through the six hour miniseries Pride & Prejudice by the BBC/A&E. I'm going in order so this set represents the first little bit of the first of six episodes. I like the challenge of working with a costume drama. The delicate colors of a pre-industrial, pastoral world are a huge switch from the saturated, bright colors of the darkly lit sci fi shows I tend to favor. I'm still finding my way with the coloring on these, too. Happily, it's no hardship to revisit one of my all time favorite books and Colin Firth. Yum!

I need to upload some P&P icons. :( It was my first fanfic fandom. I've lived with Elizabeth and Darcy in my head for about a decade now. First read the book when I was in grade school and have re-read any number of times since then. The miniseries is THE version for me. Love, love, love it.

I enjoyed Jane Eyre but not enough to pick it up again. I liked a lot of it but I'm not a Gothic reader at heart.

As much as i LOVE, LOVE, LURVE the fandom, I'm afraid to actually attempt to write fic in it. I just don't think I can pull off the art in the language properly. I was SO sad faced when it got pulled from the final fandoms for Yuletide because I REALLY wanted to request a Mary/Mr. Collins fic this year. -sigh- The '95 Miniseries is the ONLY version as far as I'm concerned. I HATED the 2005 version with a burning passion.

Jane Eyre is my favorite book of all time. I collect every copy and version of the book that I can get me hands on and it's one of the very few books I've ever bothered to re-read and I try to do that at least once a year. I also own NEARLY every film adaptation of it ever made! =D

For the record, in case you want to know, the ones I snagged were: #9, 70 (BOBBYYYY!!!), 86, 181, 182, 183, & 192 I might be snagging 196 too. =D

Heh, I wrote very little fanfic but I read great gobs of it. Made some good, lifelong friends in that fandom, too. I know that I've read Mary/Mr. Collins fic in the past - or at least fic in which that pairing occurs since 99.9999% of the fanfic is primarily Lizzy/Darcy - but it has been enough years that I can't recall titles/authors offhand to give you some links. :(

I didn't even bother with the 2005 version because I knew shoving the story back down into 2 hours would necessarily weaken it. It needs time and space to develop. Without that, it's going to feel like a melodramatic chick flick rather than a journey of self-discovery. Their love needs to be a hard-fought journey of learning and change, you know?

I read all of the classics "girls' books" (Little Women, P&P, Jane Eyre. e.g.) in grade school. I was never a fan of the overly dark (sort of shocking as I'm iconning SPN and TWD) story as a kid and Jane Eyre was just too heavy, tone-wise, for me.

I ALWAYS want to know what people have snagged. It helps me judge success. :D
