OK, so who will be at Arisia this weekend? Cambridge, Mass. Hyatt Regency Hotel. I'll be there and I'm trying to figure out if I'll wear my robes or not. I wore them last year one afternoon and I hate to repeat... hmm, now that I think about it, are they clean?

For more info: Arisia web site.

So, it would seem that I have a new favorite kind of fic, which is the "Epilogue? What Epilogue?" or EWE. (You know I've never been into "Plot? What Plot?" and I tend to avoid WIP... so now I finally have three letters (besides 'XXX'--hush, you...) to call my own.

To celebrate this fact, I opened a Cafe Press store! Yes, you can now get "Epilogue? What Epilogue?" T-shirts, buttons, magnets, writing journals and more. Should I add the boxer shorts? Visit The Raven's Quill Store and tell me what you want...

Order NOW and you can still get them in time for Xmas! It's what I gave most of my fic-loving friends! (At least, those whose sizes I felt I could guess!)

Tell your friends!

I'll be wearing mine at Arisia! And maybe Terminus if I go!

So, I've not written much fic lately. In fact, I've not written much fic in the past 12 months. It's odd because in the 12 months before that I wrote something like 200,000 words of fic, including two novels, finished a 100 Quills table for Harry/Draco, and participated in, I think, seven fic exchanges and fests?

There are a couple of reasons for the drastic change from one year to the other.
( lo, the many reasons )
Oh, and there is the fact that DEATHLY HALLOWS totally screwed with my personal canon, too. AND the strikethrough bullshit.

So, anyway, this is not to say I'm not going to write any more fic. Far from it. I still plan to write Oriens (the Tempus sequel which has a few chapters done already), but need to plan when to work on it, I have more stories to do in my Seven Spells table (Snape/Harry/Draco), and there are still plot bunnies waiting for me. (And the sequel to The Kiss, too.)

I've not only hardly written any fic for the past year, I've hardly READ any, either. Um, if you want to help me get back into the swing of both reading and writing it, well, I really could use more Snape/Draco. Post-HBP, pseudo- or almost-DH compliant would be rilly keen...

That's what these other journals are right now. Bomb shelters that I'm stocking with water and supplies in case LiveJournal mounts an assault on me.
