left-handed signatures, amnesty, remix

[oiran]

Have we ever seen a good, clear Lex Luthor signature onscreen? I can't think of one, though I know I've seen plenty of "Lex" (complete with quotes) MR signatures on fannish trinkets. I haven't personally seen evidence of MR signing a full "Lex Luthor" on any fan stuff, either. I ask because I want a good, clear image of either MR/Lex's signature as Lex Luthor for a project. If anyone could point me to a screencap or a scan of an autograph, I'd appreciate it muchly.

ETA: shannenb is a loving and giving Goddess. That is all.

Do you hate me? Do I drive you nuts? Do you only have me on your friends list so you can complain to your actual friends about what a whiner I am? Is a fic post from me just another opportunity to mock how much my writing sucks? A recent unfriending has me surprised and also tired of cliqueish LJ pettiness and...and...and just all the crap. If I bother you that much, please do unfriend me, sooner rather than later (i.e., now), and we'll all feel much better. Or, as less testy people have put it: unfriending amnesty time! No questions asked!

I'm still trying to pick a story from the plethora of options for my remixredux assignment. I am rather intrigued by a couple of options, and it's been fun because I actually knew and liked a lot of this author's work, but hadn't realized it was all her stuff, since I apparently don't do a good job of linking titles to authors, or even titles to contents. I'm really enthusiastic about this, and I've been hoping it would happen for months and months.

And for whoever got me, I have more fodder for you! I've posted three stories this weekend, with a fourth to come today. It's all SV/Bruce Wayne stuff: Scions, Born Slippy, and Eidolon helvum. I'll also be cleaning up and posting a slightly different version of my silly pon farr story, Biological Imperative, to the archives and my site soon.

I'm really excited about remixredux because I'm excited to see what someone will do with my ideas, whether for (IMO) better or worse. Several people on my friends list have been talking about hating their writing, being discouraged, wanting to improve some aspect of their work, etc., and I'm hoping the remix process will afford me a little of that when I see what has been done with something of mine. I'm hoping that seeing how someone else's process shapes "my" ideas will give me a little insight into what I've been doing with the same raw materials.

Ideally, I would be able to approach various fanwriters whose work I really admire and just ask them to rework a story or even a few paragraphs of mine, but 1) I'm not that bold, and 2) I can't imagine that most people have the time to indulge my whims. I'm very aware that I have much room to improve but I like my writing. I don't like all pieces equally, but if I liked them well enough to post, I like them (all stories are equal, but some are more equal than others). I joke about being a diva with my friends, but is it really diva-ish behavior if I just don't hate this aspect of myself with all my puny might? No, I don't think so, either ;)

Do you hate me?

Nope.

Do I drive you nuts?

Again nope.

Do you only have me on your friends list so you can complain to your actual friends about what a whiner I am?

LOL! Still nope.

Is a fic post from me just another opportunity to mock how much my writing sucks?

Absolutely not. You know I adore your writing.

Don't worry about people defriending you. People come and go all the time on my LJ. It used to bother me, but I find that sometimes interests change. You can't take it personally.

But whatever you do...DO NOT GET INTO POPSLASH. OKAY?? Within the last few months I've taken myself off of several LJs because of that. I just can't deal with it. It's nothing personal to the women who were enjoying it...I just couldn't.

Hee! Well this is an instance where I thought this person liked and respected me well enough, if from a distance, because I had no reason to think otherwise...and it was mutual. We still share, well, everything, so far as I can tell, in terms of interests. Whatever. I could ask, but I don't know to what purpose. In addition to liking my own writing, I have this huge, crippling issue of pride/dignity that keeps me from groveling to get people to refriend me.

As to popslash: I shall be blunt. I think they're all ugly. Justin is hot from the neck down, but he does, after all, have a head, and I don't want to look at it. My dear shaggirl tried to get me to convert, but it didn't take ;)

I heard an interview with Justin this week and couldn't believe how uneducated he was. I don't know why I thought he'd speak better. I mean, he's been in the business a long time. I don't know if he was affecting this to be hip. But I was just shocked.

BWAH!!!! I feel the exact same way!!!

And yes, props to shaggy for trying, but she is powerless in the face of the non-attractiveness of the boy band members!
