Stuff and Things

• 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*

Thank you! I'm looking forward to it now I got over the nervousness. I'm excited you're going to write some more drabbles, too!
