| Anastigmat |
Author has written 9 stories for Chronicles of Narnia, Firefly, and X-Men: The Movie. In case you're wondering, "anastigmat" is the name given to a type of lens -- four glass elements, cemented into two doublets -- used in Zeiss cameras manufactured in the early part of the 20th century. At the time it was quite a revolutionary piece of technology, though it's hardly a patch on the multiple-element lenses of today. Feel free to contact me: anstig@gmail.com There are notes, outtakes, picfics, and whatnot in my Livejournal, which is at the 'homepage' link and also here: http://anastigmatfic.livejournal.com/ Feel free to drop by and say hello. "What it comes down to is that my interpretation of my work is really immaterial. I'm not really a believer in art and music being institutionalized or put in galleries or stuff like that. I think art is something for the use of the public. It's for the public to interpret it and use it almost like a sustenance to life. So it's the interpretation of the listener, or the viewer, which is all important. Authorship isn't questioned, you know." -- David Bowie, 1994. With that in mind: feel free to swipe anything you wish for your own stories. All I ask is that you drop me a line so I can enjoy seeing my characters in somebody else's world. For the curious: my view of Narnian cosmology is perfectly depicted in this painting by Hieronymus Bosch. (It's the shuttered covers to the 'Garden of Earthly Delights' triptych.) I regret to inform you that I can't promise regular updates. However, I do not start works-in-progress without knowing how they will end, and I write with that ending in mind. It takes longer to get there, is all. Come discuss things Narnian over at NFFR -- they've archives, a forum, and a fascinating array of writers. | |||||||
