The month of June is almost upon us, and that means another month of queer media over at lgbtq_recs. If you have any LGBTQ movies, music, books, television, podcasts, websites, children's books, animations, operas, radioplays, etc. etc. that you would like to share, go here to sign up for a slot. And if you don't have anything to share, I highly encourage ( Read more... )

Claiming is happening at the queer_fest until April 2nd, if you want to go snag a prompt. I missed doing this last year, but before that I had great fun writing for lgbtfest three years in a row. I haven't decided yet if I'm going to participate; none of the prompts are quite calling my name. And if I do write, I'm not sure it'll be Sherlock. Last time I randomly ( Read more... )

The fantastic comm lgbtq_recs has been hosting monthly discussions on a few of the books that have been recommended there in the past. December is going to be movie month, and so I've compiled a list of nominations that either a) I want to see, or b) I've already seen and want to talk about. :) There's a poll here on magnetic_pole's journal to pick one out. So if you're ( Read more... )

Well, it looks like it's been over a year since I've written something that was not a Missing Pages chapter. But when magnetic_pole hosted a challenge to write DH2-inspired fic, it seemed like the right opportunity to branch out. My contribution was a Snape centric fic that's part character exploration and part movie fix-it. You can read it below, and also take ( Read more... )

Tomorrow (or today, depending on how you slice it) is the start of another wonderful month of lgbtq_recs. Every day in June will feature a different recommendation of queer themed movies, books, television, music, comics, radio, etc. I'll be reccing a few things myself. And there are still a few spots left, so it's not too late if you want to sign up ( Read more... )

Last year I had a lot of fun reading and reccing lgbt themed media over at lgbtq_recs .  This year, not only do I have a few recs in mind, but I'm also one of the mods!  So it's my modly duty to urge everyone to go watch this comm, and maybe sign up for a few rec slots while you're at it. :)  It will be active during the month of June, and it promises to be ( Read more... )

Prompt claiming has commenced at lgbtfest, and I have to say, I'm pretty torn. I definitely don't think I'll write HP this time around, but what to choose in its stead? There are a ton of Torchwood prompts that look like fun, of course, but there are some others I'm leaning toward that are...fairly random. Heh. So what should I write? Pretty in Pink? ( Read more... )

It looks like prompt submitting has once again begun at lgbtfest, a multifandom fest that focuses on LGBT issues.  This has to be one of my favorite fests.  Not only do I love writing for it, but I end up reading in a ton of fandoms outside of my usual sphere.  Maybe I'll even write something not HP this year.  We'll see!

Go! Submit some prompts!

After a silly amount of waffling, I finally decided to sign up to do art for Torchwood Big Bang.  Since I still don't know Torchwood fandom that well, I'm hoping it'll be a good way to offer something where people might see it.  And maybe read some good fic in the process. :)  Plus, I'm an illustrator at heart - I love having an assignment to work ( Read more... )

Movie excitement is in the air. And yes, I'm quite excited about the movie, even though I'm trying to keep my expectations low. It's mostly a good excuse to hang out with friends and fans and relive the books, then leave the theater debating all the ways the director went wrong. :) In the spirit of things, I've added hbpchallenge and azkatrazathome to my flist, both of ( Read more... )
