heliopausa

This week began on the fiftieth anniversary of the death of C S Lewis, but here we are, more cheerfully, at the 115th anniversary of his birth.   And to finish up, some gentle ramblings about...

 

 

And that's the end of the series!  Thank you to everyone who has commented on all of this. I really appreciated the encouragement, and enjoyed the discussions!  I'd love to hear other people's head-canons, sometime, whenever the time is right.  :)

Oh my!  running late(ish).  But all sorts of things have been happening today (all good).

Sixth in the series:

 

More head-canon, for fun and profit!  Okay, not really for profit, but really for mild fun (including fierce and fun debates when appropriate!  ;-)  ) as celebration of fifty years or 115, as you like it.

Fourth in the series

 

( How come Mrs Beaver had a sewing machine? )

And of course, it's fifty years ago today that the first Doctor Who episode aired, so in honour of that, I've made today's head-canon the most timey-wimey one.

Second in the series:

 

( How did Jadis make it always Winter? )

I've been cut off the internet for nearly  week, and it's been both depressing and interesting to find how little I know, when I don't have that storehouse of information at my fingertips.  Also, of course, it means I've not been reading here much (apart from when I managed to get a short time in an internet cafe) so I expect there's much I've missed - and maybe new stories, too, on AO3 or fanfiction.net.  I'll look through and see what I can see!  :)

Without the internet, I've been consoling myself by spare-time reading of several Shakespeare plays I hadn't read, or hadn't read lately, or hadn't read with much attention, or just plain felt like reading.
( From the list: )

In the meantime the fandom fundraising for the Philippines has raised over twelve thousand dollars, which I think is brilliant. :)

And tomorrow is the 22nd of November, which is the beginning of a C. S. Lewis week (since he died on the 22nd and was born on the 29th.  Sounds time-travelly, doesn't it?) in honour of which I will attempt to post a scrap of Narnian head-canon every day.  Stay tuned!  :)
