rachelmanija is asking for your favorite cool bits- the images and details and tropes that make you love a story. The comments to this post are the best thing ever. I'd love to read the stories that could come out of them.

Can't Pick Out a Face? Well, You're Not Alone. Oh my God. I've been saying for years that I think I have some sort of condition because I have so much trouble recognizing people, and look! It actually exists! Though I'm not as bad as some of the people in this article- I can recognize people once I know them well- some of the other details are so true. I do have trouble following movies, because I can't learn to tell actors apart in the space of two hours.

Gacked from many people, but most lately: daeger: Ask me my fandom opinion

How this works:
1. Ask me one fandom-related question in the comments. This can be fandom specific, general, or about fandom/lj stuff/fic writing/etc
2. Just one question, please, but it can (and perhaps should) have sub-parts. ETA: Ask as many as you want, actually.
3. That's it. It can be as normal or odd as you like.

Remember about a week ago, when I mentioned a story I was writing for a ficathon? I wrote a little over 800 words that night; Wow! I thought, I'll finish this in time to have it beta'd for once! No problem here! And then I haven't written anything since. Gah, I am such a terrible procrastinator.
