I really have to give myself a swift kick in the trousers and post here - and Livejournal - from time to time. C'est vrai, y a pas que Tumblr dans la vie !
Not much news from my side, though, except for a new nephew from the Best Beloved's side, born this August :o) And the fact that this summer I've been more productive in terms of fic that I've been these past three years. I'd say "hope it lasts" if I wasn't afraid of jinxing myself. (I totally did, didn't I.)
Anyway, new fic! And I'll be putting up the 5th chapter of Between the Mountains and the Plains soon. I'm just waiting a bit to see if I can make some progress on the 6th first. In the meantime, I hope you enjoy this little peacetime tale – for a relative value of 'peace', naturally. It's set between – roughly – 1951 and 1957. The little drawing is mine, drawn in the style of Giovannino Guareschi's headers for his stories of Don Camillo and Peppone, as a homage. Check them if you can, they're adorable (and much better than mine, natch). The man was an excellent artist and cartoonist in particular.
Title: The Trumpet of Contention
Fandom: Giovanni Guareschi's The Little World of Don Camillo stories
Genre: Humour
Rating: G
Summary: Both Don Camillo and Peppone have a bone to pick with a trumpet player. Music has charms to soothe the savage beast, but what about the priest and the mayor?
( Story under a cut... )
Hope you liked :o)
