    Welcome Back!
    Wow, so behind with the scheduled posts! I'll make a point to catch up tomorrow!

    In other news... I am so happy the holiday is nearly over and people are coming back, you have no idea! It was way too quiet online for the last few days. It felt like the zombie apocalypse was upon us or something. I was close to boarding up my windows and looking for my cricket bat.

    Also, I never realized just how much I depend upon all of you folks to keep me motivated. I was completely lost and useless without the Usual Suspects around! And then I found a few people on Y!M this evening, and my fic magically became unstuck. ::snort::

    Anyway... HI! Don't leave again any time soon, okay?! ::glomps and clings::

    Delaying posting till Dec 1
    Hi everyone!

    Because so many people are in transit this weekend and we're still putting together our posting schedule, we're going to delay posting until the evening of Dec 1. Sorry for any inconveniences! We can't wait to get things started, and hope you all enjoy the fest!

    Best,

    So, you know what I did tonight? I had a date.






    :D


    This is seriously the only way to summarize how I'm feeling right now. Can't lie about it.

    This and That
    * Hope all who celebrate Thanksgiving had a wonderful time spent with family and friends.

    * The Girl Child went to the Black Friday sales this morning. At 4:49, while I was doing some serious sleeping, she texted. Scared me to death. Why did she text at that unholy hour, you ask... because she spotted John Travolta at the mall. Jesus. She's a freak.

    * The Boy Child had to work today - so no shopping for him. Instead, he gave the Girl a list and his debit card. He gave his sister his fucking debit card. When she was going to a mall. The boy is an idiot. Honestly.

    * It's chilly here in the Sunshine State tonight. Lovely thing, that. Right along with the Criminal Minds marathon on A&E.

    * And, on a Criminal Minds note, this week's episode killed me. Dead. *pets the CM team*

    Obligatory Thanksgiving Post
    For the moment, I think my mom's email to me says it all:

    Happy Turkey Day! Though since I'm having pork roast and you might have ham, I could say Happy Pork Day. But that just sounds vaguely dirty.....lol.

    You are, without a doubt, one of the best and smartest writers in this fandom. You can make my heart ache for characters and pairings I would normally not give a damn about, and write kinks that don't generally interest me in ways that leave me begging for more. Your smut is hot enough to burn my whole bloody apartment building down, but it's never a mere PWP. Your stories, no matter how short or porny, always say something -- about a character, a pairings, a situation, a possibility -- and the message is always interesting.

    I don't want to just gush about your writing, though, because you're so much more than a collection of fics. I think what's most remarkable about you is that you're a genuinely nice person who loves fandom for all the right reasons. I've seen that you enjoy meeting other talented people around here, getting to know them, and interacting with them. Your enthusiasm for reading/viewing, reccing, and participating in fandom in general is wonderful to see. I love your posts full o' squee. Oh, you can get your snark on with the best of 'em at times. ::grin:: But you're also one of the most supportive, generous, and approachable people I've met. Don't ever leave, eh? It's people like you that make HP fandom the awesome place that it is.

    Happy Birthday, Lee!!!

    You're another one of those people who's just been around forever, and without whom this place would feel oddly empty. After all this time, you still have so much enthusiasm, and do such a tremendous amount for the fandom and your ship. It's likely that you often don't receive the appreciation that you deserve, but I want to thank you for all your hard work. Thank you, also, for reading and commenting on my fic, and for being supportive in general. And while I'm at it, thank you again for the completely rockin' Snack fic you wrote for me last year at this time (yeah, I remember)! LOL You're a super mod and organizer, a fantastic writer, and on top of all of that, you seem to be an incredibly interesting and nice person. I'd like to know you better, and I really should make an effort to comment on your journal posts more frequently.

    Holiday Card Post!
    It's about that time, right? If you want a holiday card from me, comment with your mailing address (comments screened). I still have the mailing info of those who've given it to me in the past, but if your address has changed, make sure I have your new one! I sent out 40 cards last year; let's see if I can make it 50 this year. :D

    Fic: Spoils of War

    Pairing(s): Harry/Ginny, Harry/Severus; also mentions Ron/Hermione and other canon pairings
    Rating: R
    Word count: ~ 11,000
    Disclaimer: This is a work of fanfiction set in the Harry Potter universe – all recognisable characters and settings are the property of J. K. Rowling and her associates. No copyright infringement is intended. No profit is made from this work.
    Warnings 1: het, slash, violence, blood, sex, nastiness in the past, AU
    Warning 2: Attention! This story is a carnivore! It has eaten five betas so far. Please, do not attempt to proof-read – you won’t make it past the second chapter and I’ll never hear from you again.
    Summary: The war has changed Harry. His loved ones have to deal with that.
    Author’s Note: In response to [info]the_flic's pleading for more Snarry, I've decided to post this fic. It's not very good, I'm afraid. It was my first attempt at Snarry, written pre-DH. The essential idea behind the story - the idea that sparked this fic - isn't as well-explored and clear as I wanted it to be. I think. You might think otherwise.

    The State of Hols
    By now many of you have seen or heard about the situation with HPFandom and Hex Files. At this moment in time, HSSHSH is only currently located in its full capacity at The Silver Snitch 2. AFF continues to maintain that SLS does not exist as a member. Although you can still access the story there, it is missing the 2 most current chapters. It was decided that we needed one place that would be able to house everything, just in case of possible loss of data and have come up with a solution.

    We have opened a community on Dreamwidth to house the fic and all of the side pieces. We will be uploading the entirety of HSSHSH as well as all the fics from Stirs at this new location.

    [info - community] hols_verse

    I know... another comm to join? Well, maybe. DW has the largest posting limit of the three journaling sites and it can be accessed by OpenID as well, so we felt that this would a perfect place to house Hols in its entirety.

    Um, WTF?
    HPFandom.net... account suspended... any information to be had?

    Per darlinggirl1263 on LJ: The account was suspended for "excessive CPU usage". The mod is working to get things back up and running. We'll just have to wait it out.

    ETA: Had a couple of people asking for an older fic - meaning the ones I have not tagged here on IJ yet - so, I figured I'd just link you my LJ tags.

    Jesus. I gotta make myself get those old tags done. I mean, it has only been two and one-half years, right? *hates that kind of stuff*

    Vanilla and Kinky and Lifestyle! Oh, my!
    To be honest, I hadn't intended on posting anymore about BDSM. Not outside of fic, anyway. But someone asked the difference between kinky sex and Lifestyle. And the answers to this are endless. Especially if you try to use nothing but serious, technical type jargon.

    Good thing we all know I'm not so great with sticking to the technical, huh?

    So, let's look at this like a bowl of ice cream. Because, really, who doesn't like ice cream? )

    Ha. I remember you from a lot farther back than you probably realize. I was already reading your LJ before I ever shambled my way into HP fandom, and honestly, your fic is probably at least partially responsible for my being here. So damn you thank you for that!

    You're a wonderful musician and artist, a positively brilliant writer, and you're 100% a performer in everything that you do. You have a large and captivating presence that draws people into your orbit. I love seeing your posts, whether they're fic or a rant or a story about your cats or just what you did that day. You have a way with words that makes it all fascinating. I envy that, as well as your willingness to put so many of your thoughts, opinions, and beliefs out there without reservation. One day I'd love to have the opportunity to sit down and chat with you over coffee, 'cause I think it would be a highly interesting and entertaining experience.

    I had a blast meeting you for the first time and hanging out with you at Sectus -- and my god, was that really more than two years ago?? You're a hilarious and spirited person to be around. Your brain is a seriously crack-addled place, and I'd love to be able to see inside it, but I expect I might go insane from the experience. Rather like what happens when one looks upon Cthulu.

    As one would expect, you create some of the most cracktastic art in the fandom. But you also do some seriously delicious pr0n, and some very poignant pieces as well. Your diversity is wonderful. Your art is incredibly complex and gorgeous, and your style so distinctive. Your work is uniquely your own; please keep doing what you're doing!

    You already saw this, but for everyone else's benefit:

    Jin was a fanartist expert,
    Who drew crack and porn most overt.
    "I'd come out of the gutter,"
    She said, "but I'd rather
    You all joined me down here in the dirt!"
