Pottermore Fair claiming starts tomorrow \o/

[birdsofshore]

hd_fan_fair has such a special place in my heart. It's the first fest I prompted for when I joined fandom - I remember every single one of the pieces that posted for my prompts! ♥ I also wrote my first ever story for it.

Please go and have a look at the 125 brilliant prompts. People have been so imaginative and used this year's Pottermore theme to come up with ideas that are exciting, romantic, funny, hot, thrilling, and intriguing. CLAIMING OPENS TOMORROW AT 9 AM EASTERN TIME / 2 PM BST.

Who's staking out the prompts list? Who's tempted? Who's trying reeeeeally hard not to, because they know they shouldn't, but is going to end up frantically scrabbling at the claiming post tomorrow like a crazed beast? :DD

COME HITHER, ALL YOU LOVELY AUTHORS AND ARTISTS

How is this even possible? How can it be that you didn't write anything before 2012 fan_fair? I DON'T BELIEVE YOU. Talent like yours doesn't come out of thin air. You are straight up LYING to my FACE.

(Um...you know I'm just kidding, right? I love you! But you are LYING. ♥)

But what you say about remix is very interesting. I can definitely see being nervous about remixing someone else's work (like, jesus, what if I had to remix yours?) but at the same time, it will be the case that these authors would have given permission by virtue of being in the fest. So they can't be *too* mad at you, right?

And I was just thinking that plotting is hard for me! So if someone else came up with the plot, that would be so much better! I could just fill in a missing scene, or (even easier) retell a scene from a different character's point of view. I'm all about just writing a single scene, you see :)

But I thought I should tell you that you *have* inspired me, and I have gone and signed up for fan_fair. Ha! But it's not what you think...

Talent... ahehehe... I love you, too, but have you READ my first fan fair fic? Oh, lord.

Luckily I did improve :D

I am EXTREMELY happy about you signing up. \o/
