Severus Snape Big Bang Birthday Bash
Jun. 16th, 2009 11:47 amOoh, they're giving out cool banners!

I need to get cracking on this, as the only way this works is if it's done before school starts back up. I have my materials, just need to get started. In between writing the rabid plot bunny, of course. But once I get it rolling, the nice thing about textile arts, at least the way I do them, is they lend themselves to multitasking with other things that don't use the hands.
And now, back to writing like a maniac. June's half over. Eep!

Sqee! Shiny!
Jun. 4th, 2009 07:40 amThe awards have gone out for the 17th round of the Sunnydale Memorial Fanfiction Awards, and I was thrilled to find out that Marked Men won for Best Book Crossover Pairing. Squee!

Thanks to whomever nominated it and thanks to the mods for running these awards! And congrats to the rest of the winners, especially those who happen to also be on my flist!
It's actually a little intimidating how much people seem to still like that one, given that I'm planning to write the third installment in that series for this year's

May Fic Wrap-Up
Jun. 1st, 2009 12:47 amDamn, but I wrote a lot this month! With finals and Leaky and everything! Somehow, I ended up participating in the Lusty Month of May at the Pervy Werewolf Community on both IJ and DW. I haven't quite sorted out how many words that came to, but as I averaged 300ish words most days, with some more and some less, I'm estimating that thing turned into 9-10K. It also ended up getting kinda dark and twisted at points, so I posted it as part of the Darkfic Fest on
lupin_snape as well. It's going to be all kinds of fun trying to clean that mess up to be archivable. Never mind SPaG, which definitely went to hell in a handbasket with the "churn out something every day" bit, I'm pretty sure there are some internal inconsistencies.
I don't think I've ever written a Snape who was quite this much of a bastard before, and I'm not sure how I feel about having done so now. :-/
Anyway, on to the ( wrap-up. )
Next up, hopefully the next chapter of Turbulence. I'd hoped the LMOM thing might get me rolling on that, and I did get some written, but once things turned dark, I knew this wasn't the same Snupin as in Turbulence, and I couldn't write them both at the same time.

Drawble meme: Snape/Tonks for karasu_hime
May. 28th, 2009 02:56 pmSo, not one but two real artists took me up on this. Yikes!
karasu_hime, from whom I nicked the meme in the first place, requested Snape/Tonks - bleeding hearts.
And there's no way to do Tonks without color, or at least I can't, so for this one I went with pastels using this dA stock photo for reference on the people and this image as a reference for bleeding hearts. It took me awhile to figure out what to do with "bleeding hearts" as a prompt until I finally remembered it's a flower. Still chickening out on hands though.

So, I was thinking as I posted my LMOM entry tonight, that I'd made Snape do an Anya. Which then led to wondering who'd written Snape *doing* Anya. I only found one Snape/Anya fic at Twisting The Hellmouth, but it was hysterical. As anybody/Anya pretty much will be. Now I want to see Anya/Luna, romantic or not, just to see whether the universe implodes if they're in the same place together. Anyway, on to the rec.
Title: A Remedy for What Is Ailing Me
Author: echo
Fandoms: Harry Potter, Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Rating: FR15, (kind of a soft R, I guess)
Pairing: Snape/Anya
Summary: No matter what universe she finds herself in, Anya still manages to shock, disturb, and generally pervert.
Why you should read it: Because ... it's Anya. With Snape. Anya. Oh, and it's post-Chosen. No, seriously. Don't be eating or drinking anything when you read though.
