heh. Strange dreams again.

I'm always amused when I dream of people I've never seen before. The image in my subconscious has got to be SO wrong. XD Although, to be honest, I've dreamed of people before who I do know what they look like, but in my dream they still looked completely different. I just knew it was them, because... it was them. ^^;

So, last night's dream (I don't remember what it was about, unfortunately) featured [livejournal.com profile] toxictattoo, [livejournal.com profile] lil_1337, and [livejournal.com profile] lavenderfrost and a bunch of nameless fandom people.... I do recall having fun, but that's about it. I wish I remembered. *pouts*

Also, something that's been on my mind for a while now is the length of ficcage and the definition thereof. What do you consider drabble, what ficlet, and what fic?

I've decided for myself (quite arbitrarily) that from ~900+ words I call it ficlet, from ~1800+ words fic. Anything less is a drabble. Since I don't write epics, I don't have to deal with the definition of that. :P

So, what about you?

*curious*

How to make an American Quilt is definitely one of my favorite movies, ever. It has such a sweet and gentle feel to it, and the lighting is so very beautiful. So is the music. Watching it makes me feel good. ^_^

Well, like I said--the term gets misused, a lot. It's not really a big deal, since the 100-word challenge still exists, and who really cares what you call it? I just always approach something labeled as a "drabble" with the knowledge that it may be anywhere from 100 to 1000 words long.

Anyway, it's still a shiny new word, so the definition is bound to be fairly fluid. It doesn't even appear in any dictionaries, to the best of my knowledge (Wiktionary nothwithstanding).
