Fannish Items Of Interest

From the Doctor Who fandom: Ian Collier—best known for his appearance as Omega in Arc of Infinity and his role in The Time Monster, and a few Big Finish Productions—has passed away, due to currently unspecified causes. May he rest in peace.

[personal profile] lizbee is hosting a Cliché-swap ficathon in the Doctor Who/Torchwood/Sarah Jane Adventures fandom. The ficathon involves fanfic clichés, and the sign-up post (with more information about the ficathon) is here. The minimum word count is 500 words. I’ll probably sign up later.

For those interested, there’s an article about how children’s tv shows have drastically changed over the years, specifically pointing out what a good show Clarissa Explains It All was. The article is here. A post about the article can be found here, at [profile] _mygeneration.

And, from Cracked.com: 5 Bizarre Ways The Weather Can Kill You Without Warning.
