Stuff and Things
- I had a moment of madness and signed up for this:
The H/D Last Drabble Writer Standing contest at
![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif){kind=small}
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*

The problem is I'm a ridiculously slow writer, so if I signed up for this I wouldn't be able to do much on the stuff I've already signed up for. If I didn't disappear from the competition the first week, that is (ETA: and a look at the participants list suggests that I would - yay, awesome list :)) which would've solved that problem :D
I don't really have a beta who's able to help me right now either.
But I'm excited about this, I'm sure it will produce a lot of wonderful drabbles!
And if there's still room for more people in a day or two I might just push the responsible part of me aside and sign up anyway, haha :)no subject
