At least I have the perfect icon for it

You know, when I collected fall icons yesterday in honor of my favorite season ... I wasn't expecting it to FROST LAST NIGHT. My greenhouse is tragically cut down in its prime, my green tomatoes and peppers dangling from blackened vines. *weep*

Interesting link acquired via Facebook: 7 Deadly Sins of Worldbuilding.

[livejournal.com profile] cornerofmadness also posted a list of useful writing links this morning. I'm reading the Joss Whedon link right now ... of course I should probably take his advice and go GET SOME WRITING DONE!

I like the list of sins. Especially #1 and #7, I've seen them so often.

Isn't it great? :) Definitely useful to keep in mind while writing!

Frost, already?

::shivers::

I don't know how you do it.

Even here (in Belgium) we're already seeing things slowing down in the garden. Considering we've had a long winter--for us, that is. You'd probably consider it ridiculously easy to deal with--it hasn't been a very good year for gardening.

It's usually at this time of year that I start asking myself why I ever thought it was a good idea to move here ... *g*

But yeah, I'd heard Europe's not been having a good year, weather-wise.

Oh, no! ): We're still having good weather, I can't imagine frost right now. Sorry about your plants. It sucks to lose them after putting in the work to grow them.

Thanks for the links, I'll check them out :)

And my peppers and tomatoes were doing so well, too ... *cries*

At least the worst has already happened, so I don't have to stress about it, I guess. And I can get an early start on cleaning up my greenhouse for fall, since the plants are already dead.
