So it's been awhile since I've posted. Er, quite a while. It's not that there's not anything going on; rather, I just haven't had any interest in posting about it. But since book seven's almost here, I figured I'd post a few things about that.
First of all, regarding spoilers--spoil me, don't spoil me, I don't care. I read the scanned epilogue a few days ago, but apparently now the entire book is being scanned and people are reading that, which I certainly am not. I do periodically seek out spoilers, but I prefer them to be single events rather than the entire bloody book. There are only a few more days before I can buy it, and I'd really prefer to read an actual book where I don't have to strain my eyes, so I don't mind waiting.
I don't know if the leaked book is real or not. On one hand, if it's real, I'm surprised no one official has cracked down on it yet. On the other hand, it's not like people don't illegally download episodes and music, so I wouldn't be that surprised if it was real and just keeps slipping through.
As for spoilers after the book is officially out, I'll put them under a cut with warnings and no indications of what the spoiler actually is. I may not care about getting spoiled, but I know other people do.
In other HP-related news, I haven't seen Order of the Phoenix, and I don't intend to. I'm even sort of iffy on rereading the book--I haven't read it since it came out, but I've reread the first four, and I might reread HBP, so not sure if I should leave it out or not.
I have started reading HP fanfic again. Mostly the ones on my favorites list at ff.net, along with a couple new epics, but I started looking through my R/S reclist yesterday, and now I'm debating asking for links for fics newer than November 2005, since that was when it was last updated. I'll probably wait and see if my interest remains after I finish Deathly Hallows.
*sigh* There's things going on in RL, but I don't feel like talking about them now. In other fandomy news, I'm in the middle of a West Wing fic, with a few more ideas for that fandom, and a Supernatural fic, intended to be for musesfool's birthday, but I guess I'm too late for that. Happy belated birthday anyway, musesfool, and I'll see if I can finish it any time soon.
Burnt by the Sun is continuing to be stubborn. I wish it could just be finished already.
