DiaCon Was Awesome [Jul. 26th, 2011|08:08 pm]
DiaCon was amazing and went so stupidly well, I am even managing to analyse it without just thinking about bits that went wrong with is a MAJOR achievement for me!

I am so happy, and so proud of everyone involved. Wow!

I had to go back to work today which was not fun, especially as my lovely manager had her last dy while I was away at con so I had that weirdness, too. I did make it to the pub meet yesterday which was nice and relaxed and managed to stave off my con drop for a day. I feel weirdly ok. Tired, but not ill which I've been expecting to come after the con for ages. Maybe it's still not hit me yet.

Hello to any new people. I still need to go over to the friending meme and starts finding people and stuff, but I don't quite have enough brain for that.

I cannot believe it really happened. Every report I've read of it has been lovely though, please link me if you've spotted any, even if I've probably seen it (although if someone totally hated it I probably don't want to know).

*glomps*

P.S. Now I want to reread books and discuss canon for hours!

H/D Holidays [Aug. 8th, 2010|10:36 am]
[mood |excitedexcited]
[music |What's This - Cake Wrecks Version]

Eeeep, what have I got myself in for here? I am very excited to say that I got into this years H/D Holidays! I have been writing more recently and I have always wanted to do a big anon fest and wanted something to gear me into finishing and making public, so, there we are.

If my writer/author is reading this, please do not stress, I am pretty flexible, I like most H/D really. Well brit-picked and not too fluffy are the main things that are needed for me. Oh, and I didn't mention this in the sign up and don't care enough to make some edit or whatever, but if you read this, I don't really like smoking. If it is there I don't really mind I was just discussing it with someone and thought I'd put it out here for if I'm being spied on.

I have ideas flowing, though I am slightly terrified. I am glad I have this to focus on and am actively doing a fandomy thing (says the person who spends much of her free time planning a HP con...). I have been so lurky online for the last few years!


*tries to make ideas make sense*

DiaCon Alley is COMING [Jun. 21st, 2010|11:08 pm]
What: A Harry Potter Con
Where: University of Kent, Canterbury
When: July 21st to 24th 2011
Why: Because the films are ending and we wanted to hang out with awesome people!

Our glorious website

This is going to be awesome! We want as many lovely people as can come to be there. We will have art and meet ups and academia and analysis of fannishness and squee and and epic Victory Ball!

Also, I meant to mention this before. I was always relatively open that Rachel wasn't my real name, but I don't know how clear I made it that Emily is! It's been fairly out online due to having more rl HP fans but I thought I'd make it clear as I am being Emily over there (partially an very vague attempt to keep different online lives separate).

Come to DiaCon Alley! It will be amazing!

I have been having a bit of a swelling of remembering why I love canon so much and this meme made me catalyse some of my thoughts about it, having seen some interesting insights in other people doing it!

My thoughts on HP characters here )I think Ill start a full reread this week :D I have never read 1-7 back to back and I think it's time.

I was a bit stalled on my kinkfest fic. I'm still not sure it's 'showcasing the kink' enough, but I feel the need for build up. I am feeling a lot better about it now though, as I have just been brainstorming it with my fiance. And I just felt like posting about how awesome and happy-making it is that he is happy to do this with me.

And he thinks what I've got so far is hot! And I feel pleased to have someone who has recieved blow jobs telling me my male pov blow job scene is not all wrong. (One of the reasons I was nervous about showing him the fic, slightly, added to him never having read porn I've written before).

(If anyone reading would be willing to beta a Ron/Pansy adultery pegging fic please comment, otherwise I think I may hit up the kinkfest beta post.)

What is making you happy at the moment?

First off, thanks to all the lovely people who sent me birthday wishes yesterday. I had a wonderful day, though the snow meant we didn't quite manage a ma-hoo-sive all family including partners dinner. I got some lovely presents (including sister taking me (and me taking her for Christmas, and both of us taking our mum for her birthday) to see Legally Blonde: The Musical. Cheesey, glorious musical fun). Possibly the most unexpectedly amazing gift was a gorgeous charm bracelet from my fiance including 10 lovely charms to represent who I am and the things I love. It has a little witches hat to represent Harry Potter! I mentioned once 4 years ago or something I had always wanted a charm bracelet and he remembered and put it together for me now. I also had some lovely people over for a thing on Saturday which was great, and the mix of fandom friends and non-fandom friends had no issues (I didn't think there would be, but you never know).

Also, I am getting really excited for [info]hp_kinkfest. I have started writing but I've gotten all scared at the prospect of writing something and putting it out there. I am mostly just excited though.

Now I need to get some sleep :D

P.S. OMG SNOW! We made a snow man on Saturday night (at about 1:30 am after many cocktails) and it is sitting outside still looking snazzy, though a bit odd for having been snowed on.
