Bio:O hai thar! I've decided that on IJ I'm going to friend back just about everybody who adds my journal (except for watcher journals and empty journals belonging to strangers), and even in those cases, I don't use filters unless I'm talking about work, so...welcome!

My "Shameless and Yet Useful Hinting for Gift-Fic" post can be found here.




"Once you've written something it's not yours any longer: it belongs to other people, and they all have opinions about it, and every single one of those opinions is as correct as that of the author - more so, perhaps. Because those people have read the work as something perfectly new, and, barring amnesia, an author is never going to be able to do that. There will be too many ghost-versions of the story in the way, and besides, the author cannot read it for the first time, wondering what happens next, comparing it to other things that he or she has read."
-(Neil Gaiman, in his Introduction to The Sandman Papers: An Exploration of the Sandman Mythology , ed. Joe Sanders)




In other news, I'm the moderator for four communities:

  • [info]hp_beholder, a Fic and Art Exchange, set up to help some of the 'less conventionally appealing" HP characters get a little action. (IJ)
  • [info]snape100: a weekly drabble community centered on everyone's favorite Potions Master (originally, on LJ here, but mirrored on IJ)
  • Fanspeak Help: a multi-fandom Q&A community (for when you really have no clue what anyone's talking about)
  • Porkish Pixies: (an HP-focused, multi-fandom art/fic parody community where "old" and "fat" aren't just accepted: they're required! *g*)

    I'm one of the editors for:

  • [info]snapenews: a daily newsletter for all LJ/IJ activity (fic, art, meta, discussions, etc.) relating to Severus Snape.

    And a co-moderator for:

  • Premium Blend: a central community for fanfic and discussion of all small-fandom shows on the premium cable channels like HBO and Showtime)
  • [info]snape_after_dh (the Severus Snape after Deathly Hallows Fest)

    And finally, a former member (during the start up year) of the Community Relations committee for [info]otw_news (the information/news/discussion journal for the Organization for Transformative Works)
