Hey, is that Surviving the Applewhites I spy?! For some reason that's one of the books that will just pop into my head, I think because of the title, every once in a while. I can't even remember how long ago I read it, four or six years ago... It was fun.
This meme is perfect foil to my pretentious lit'rary nonsense!
1. My Username is
"anachred" because my Xanga was anachronistic_red and I wanted something that played with the almost-acronym of arachnid and then the arachne (because I'm a handspinner).
2. My personal LJ is entitled
"Haunted Mirror" because I am fascinated by mirrors and the way they seem parts of real-world magic and so conducive to fantasy-magic. Also, just poetic sounding especially when combined with my subtitle:
3.
"of broken worlds" because I'm reflecting on both my imaginary worlds and this one, and the commonest thread between them is that they need fixing. The journal is supposed to be my mirror, like the Lady of the Lake's, that focuses on the magic and desperateness of both reality and anything you create out of it.
4. My Friends Page is called
"Fleeting Glimpses" because it's other peoples' mirrors, in the corner of my eye
5. My Default Userpic is
a set of Japanese-motifed modern screens, because I liked the black and white simplicity, the Asian part of me from living in Japan is still very important, if very small, and it fits in any setting I'm in on this...except the Sounis community, which I have a whole half of other allowed profile pics dedicated to. ^_^
