I had a moment of madness and signed up for this:

The H/D Last Drabble Writer Standing contest at

slythindor100. This runs for eight weeks, starting July 10th. Anyone want to join me? It's really fun and pretty exciting. Each week you get a word count and a prompt, and you have a few days to produce something. There are some fabulous people signed up and it's always brilliant to see the different styles and genre. I've signed up because I want the commitment of having to write something short every week and work on my brevity in general, so I hope I don't get booted out too fast.

JKR reveals that Harry Potter and the Cursed Child will open next year in London's West End. You can register here to get ticket information in the Autumn. I am really confused as to what this is about. JKR is being mysterious - and insists it is NOT a prequel, as previously reported. But I have heard that it is a story about James and Lily? So, who knows. Will you be trying to get tickets?

Quick rec: An Aching Soul at hd_smoochfest, (H/D, NC-17, 15k, currently anon). Club!fic is my guilty pleasure, and this one is hot and visceral and the writing is lovely. It's 15k and whooshes along.

I must finish my hd_collab. I MUST FINISH MY hd_collab. WHY AM I EVEN HERE? WHY DID I STAY UP LAST NIGHT PLAYING STARFIGHTER:ECLIPSE? (I totally got the Cain/Selene/Helios threesom, though, heh). I am now going to go and finish my hd_collab. Just as soon as I've showered, tidied my sock drawer, made a light snack, checked my flist and anything else I can think of to stave off the moment. *attempt at charming smile in mods' direction*
