 You've got dirt on your nose. Did you know? Just there.... Group: Graduates Posts: 347 Joined: 20-September 06 From: South-by-Southeast Member No.: 4,962 |
I am thisclose to having my drabble finished, and I've had other things swoop in and demand my attention both of the last two nights!! I was hoping to have posted it a couple of days ago, but alas...getting stuck on exactly how I wanted to end it, followed by real life butting in, has caused me to postpone instead of post!!
Hopefully I can have it done and posted over the weekend. Though I've got a mega-busy schedule for those days too....keep your fingers crossed for me!! Best, -Lauryne -------------------- Thanks to princess bloomy @ bloomyicons on livejournal for the avatar!

I must say, I am really loving the Cannon Fest so far. Although I am a major Ron and Hermione shipper, I have found myself really loving the stories about Lily and James (with Narcissa) and George with Angelina. I also like that a few stories or artwork are revealed everyday as it allows me to read them without being too overwhelmed.
Fantastic job Mugglemama and Dove! XXX |

Agreed, having beta'd three AMAZING fics, I knew this would be an awesome fest and I've been proven right.
I can't wait for the second posting of the day! -------------------- The outcome is known but how was it reached? |

Thank you to Mugglemama and Dove for the fun Canon Fest. I'm especially enjoying the art I've seen posted thus far and love the whole concept of the canon fest. Great work!

I can't tell you how much I'm enjoying the results in CanonFest!
I love that it is lots of R/Hr, of course, but I also appreciate that writers who may not enjoy writing those two characters are being inspired to write all the other wonderful HP characters within the canon universe. So many fests and exchanges offer more wildly AU characterisations and pairings, and honestly, that just doesn't interest me. |

Just caught up with all the wonderful stories and art, and I have to thank mugglemama and everyone else who's worked so hard on this. It's been great reading good HP stories after months of withdrawal! Lol, I swear I was going spare, which is just sad, isn't it? What would I do without HP and you lot?
Especially now my other obsession's coming to a close aka LOST. Sob! Also, can't wait for my mystery gift either! Hugs all, Sara -------------------- "Don't tell me what I can't do!"

Come read and enjoy!
The first half! I can't believe that we have so much high-quality fic and art, and are only halfway through!!!! We have started to see some isolated negative comments on the fics, and, honestly, it seems crazy to me! Every fic is great and deserves nothing but love, so, please, come out and leave your comments of support! |

We're wondering if there'd be any interest in a 'pick a prompt' round of Canon Fest later this year?
Summer has LOTS of great fests, but very few canon couples appear, so we are putting out feelers for a very low-key event. Just pick a prompt, pick a pair and post kinda thing. Any interest? If so, when would be a good time for such an event? Don't forget-- rwhg_bigbang will be aiming for a posting date of September 1, 2010, so get those epic story ideas brewing! Thanks for all the support! ~mugglemama This post has been edited by mugglemama: Jan 22 2010, 01:31 PM -------------------- Loyal deckhand on the Good Ship sailing under the amazing Captain Jo.

Oooh, I'd totally be in...I even have some groovy canon plotbunnies to share if you want some for a mini-spectacular. (They are more than just one-word prompts. More like Missing Moment or post-DH "questions" that would make a good one-shot. )

I had to come and say how amazing the stores for the hp_canon_fest have been. I admit to falling behind and have been slowly trying to catch up. I'm up to the stories posted up to January 11th, but a I already fell in love with more than one fic.
honouraryweasley12, your gift fic is absolutely amazing. All three chapters are brilliant and I love that we got a peek of different point of Ron/Hermione lives. lauryne, I also really, really, loved your gift fic. I love the whole theme of proposals and that each one was so different yet so appropriate for each cannon couple. I have to say I was partial to Ron/Hermione's section but I also really enjoyed Percy/Audrey's. There are so many great fics, and I have found myself really enjoying stories of pairing I usually don't read. The 3 part Teddy/Victoire story was another one of my favorites. I better go and catch up soon. This post has been edited by Pili204: Jan 22 2010, 08:40 PM -------------------- My Checkmated Stories *** My LJ *** My Fic Journal

I'd be interested, but I think it really depends on the dates and timeline... rwhg_smutfest is due April 11, and hp_art_tales is due any time before April 30. Also, if rwhg_bigbang is posting on September 1, does that mean the actual deadline will be something like August 1? If that's the case, then I don't know where the 'pick a prompt' would be slotted in.

As for the rwhg_bigbang, I just can't as I have too many stories going at once right now. *sighs* XXX |
