Bio![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif){kind=small}
strangerface uses this journal mostly for fannish squeeing and real-life complaining. Her fandoms include Harry Potter, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and other Whedonverses, X-Men, A Song of Ice and Fire and smattering of others. Real life is located in New York where strangerface works in book publishing, but posts about that are not as interesting as it might sound. The majority of her posts are friendslocked, but that doesn't mean she doesn't like you.
“I certainly have not the talent which some people possess,” said Darcy, “of conversing easily with those I have never seen before. I cannot catch their tone of conversation, or appear interested in their concerns, as I often see done.” - Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice
"It's lovely to know the world can't interfere with the inside of your head." --Frank McCourt, Angela's Ashes
The writer seems to be going ahead on the idea
That it isn't such a bad old world, after all;
He drowses along
Under the influence of Pollyanesthetics.
No one is ever known to buy the book;
You find it on the guest room night-table,
Or win it at a Five Hundred Party,
Or someone gives it to you for Easter
And follows that up by asking you how you liked it--
Say it with raspberries! -- Dorothy Parker, from "Books, a Hymn of Hate"
