Looking back through my journal archives, I realize that I never mentioned how good a writer [livejournal.com profile] chanlemur is. I first found his writing through Narbonic (he wrote (is writing?) "A Brief Moment of Culture"), but he has consistently impressed me in his other ventures, both comic and serious. Even those which are triggered by such a minor thing as a little meme that's been going around.

Yesterday, for that meme, he wrote The Thousand and First Paper Crane. It is a gorgeous story.

That's all I came to say.

Disclaimer: Chanlemur has this journal friended, and I have his journal friended. These facts had no bearing on the above – his work stands on its own merits.

(Incidentally, some obscure Narbonic trivia that I don't think Shaenon would mind me sharing: There is a early version of this strip where the problematic item Helen is considering is a bottle of Bac-Os. When I wrote to Shaenon and mentioned that Bac-Os are in fact wholly vegan, she changed it to yogurt to, I think, take a jab at me in return. ;) )

Heh. Cool. :D

(Incidentally, in reading through the archives, I noticed who wrote the Madblood Battle Anthem (http://www.moderntales.com/series.php?view=archive&chapter=2852&name=narbonic). You just keep proving my thesis, don't you? :D)
