Yes, I am still trying to write you fic. Nag, nag, nag ::g::

Primeval has definitely been axed by ITV.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/8100579.stm

Bugger.

Current Mood: disappointed

It looks like there's an issue with the php files on the server (after some detective work by temaris and me). I've checked that I've paid ma bills! (::g::), that the files are still there (accessible via FTP), that we haven't lost the databases (my cpanel is still accessible) and various other things, but the eFiction sites aren't showing up. You just get a blank page.

This is affecting:

www.wraithbait.com
www.csi-forensics.com
www.cathandnick.com
www.jamspaddedcell.co.uk
www.unconsciousmind.co.uk (my site)

It is not affecting the html site I host for widget285 (www.widgeteria.co.uk) which is still accessible.

I've reported it and unfortunately there's nothing I can do to fix it at my end. So it's a question of wait for the webhost to deal with, I'm afraid.

Apologies for any inconvenience.

Nibble and I have been making these, and they are yummy even if they are also very sweet. So I figured I'd share the recipe, especially as this means I won't need to take my cookbooks to Cornwall in case it rains and we need to keep small people and Suzy occupied.

I made myself a very simple Abby and Connor wallpaper for my computer, but as the colours came out prettily I thought I'd share.

There are three different sizes, including widescreen because that's my monitor resolution :) But let me know if you like but need a different size, and I'll see what I can do. They're all hosted on LJ's scrapbook, but if you click on a pic, the link should take you to the full sized image.

	Abby and Connor wallpaper from 3x02, 800x600 (141kb)
	Abby and Connor wallpaper from 3x02, 1024x768 (228kb)

Title: How T. rex Got His Groove Back
Author: alyse
Fandom: Original fic
Pairing: Tyrannosaurus/Baryonyx.
Rating: Hard R
Word Count: ~1,300.
Status: Complete.
Warnings: I appear to have written dinosaur porn. Oh, the shame.
Author's Notes: Written for mmom. Unsurprisingly.

For davechicken and alinak, who pretty much dared me to, and for moonlettuce, who didn't stop me. And for aithine, who read it through for me and didn't have me committed on the spot.

I have taken several liberties with time periods, geographic locations and my sanity.

Summary: It started with Baryonyx, the bastard.

I'm sure that by now everyone is aware of the fact that Amazon has targeted GLBT books, classifying all GBLT books as 'adult' fiction regardless of content (including classics like The Well of Loneliness, YA novels that have no overt sexual content and autobiographies by people such as John Barrowman and Stephen Fry.

However, Smart Bitches, Trashy Books have a really smart and snarky response: Amazon Rank.

Amazon Rank

1. To censor and exclude on the basis of adult content in literature (except for Playboy, Penthouse, dogfighting and graphic novels depicting incest orgies).
2. To make changes based on inconsistent applications of standards, logic and common sense.
