Gratuitous Post in the name of the common good

Things have been busy with the awesome  stranger friend I met through Narnia fic coming to visit and proving that neither of us is an axe murderer, my assistant's concerns notwithstanding.  We met more of my imaginary friends over the weekend and so visiting Narnia fandom friend met other fandom friend.  World collided but my fandom universe did not implode and we had a great time.  We also saw Harry Potter and the DH Part 2 and discussed Sydsvaughn's progress on updating her brilliant "It's Raining Men" multi-fandom vid.  Which I posted over here at some point.

Sydsvaughn has now done a service to fangirls and boyz everywhere with her It's Raining Men 2011.



If that fails you, you can go here.  In other news, I've picked up a dropped prompt from the Narnia Fic Exchange, so errr, yeah, way busy and if you aren't participating in the NFE and are interested, drop me a line and I can bounce, bounce, bouncity bounce ideas.  Heartwould and Clio have both been hugely helpful and [livejournal.com profile] harmony_lover  has been cheering me on.  Huge thanks to [livejournal.com profile] snacky  too for saying essentially, GO FOR IT,

I can do idea bouncing, if you need. It's about all I can do these days, as proved by my wistful perusing of old fanfic the other day and wishing I could write more. Or even read more. So idea bouncing would be great fun.

Thanks, but I really do not have the heart to disturb you given what all is going on! Packing and moving are the WORSE!

How fun! I wish I was having fangirl times with you too!

Good god, NFE. You are a bit amazing for picking up another prompt, and good luck on getting it done; writing just the one I'd been assigned took up WAY more of my life than I thought. And now I want to write it as an original novel. *headdesk* Because I totally have the time and energy to do that.

You are alive!!! I've been hesitant to contact you as I'd assumed you've been up to your eyeballs. YEAH NFE! I love this challenge. It's such a great group of writers. Thank you EVERY SO MUCH for going back to review H&M. Again, I had not responded as I did not want to distract you but it just means the world to me that with everything else you have going on, you read and reviewed it!! I'm excited about the pick up. That's how I got Under Cover last year. I've been really intimidated recently in writing and so just need to get over myself and do it.

Idea that became original novel? How awesome is THAT???

Haha I have like five posts to write about being up to my eyeballs for the past month. But yes, alive, or at least stumbling around like an overworked zombie. :P

I wish it was revealing-the-author time already with NFE, I want to babble about it all and hear about everyone's ideas. I wrote more than I intended with mine, and wished I had more time to fill it out extensively because the themes just came together so well.

*cheers you on in writing*

Gotcha and hello! And have we met before? Sydsvaughn is very, very talented and I'm so pleased she updated that vid!

I am always happy to read another story of yours, so that's a bonus for those of us waiting for the NFE to start posting submissions! :-)

And go you for pinch-hitting! Like [livejournal.com profile] harmony_lover, I shall cheer you on from the sidelines.

The waiting for the NFE posting to start is always HARD. And, well, this one is... hmmmm.... complicated.

I don't suppose there will be a Moose in this story? Did this ever happen in your Narnia?

I SAW THAT! I bookmarked it!!! Because it is SO AWESOME. I did have Bullwinkle the moose show up in TPG to teach bawdy singing songs. He's VERY fond of the "moose song" that Peridan sings. "never had anyone quite like a moose."

So many flailing moments in that vid :D

And yay for visiting imaginary friends! :D

If you need bouncing done I'm more than happy to help with ideas if needed :)

VID FLAIL! I loved the DW one on your LJ too!

Flailing is always needed for DW! And it's so close!! :D

Ahhhh,fangirl flail. That vid is unreal, and I recognise waay too many of them : )
Go the writing, and yes, I'm good for bouncing if required

How bad is it that I'm 19 & I can name most of the actors in that vid?
