Apparently I am Albus Dumbledore; this probably should serve as some kind of warning, but I am mostly very amused.

I haven't heard back from eleven people about deeply_horrible since they signed up for the fest or asked for an extension in October, which I am told is perfectly normal, but makes me wonder whether my e-mails are landing in spam folders or not

Really? Cissy Malfoy? I would not have picked that. Perhaps Mrs Weasley would be more of an absolute opposite for Dumbledore. For Minerva it is Peter Pettigrew! Yerk.

Hah! Most people tend to react to me being the voice of reason with a, 'could you please stop pointing out the blindingly logical step when I am trying to be irrational.' Still, it is true. Although there is some variation in the numbers of comments (mostly on the longer stories though, they do take some time to get through), well, compared to some of the big fests going on currently you are still well up there on numbers as an aggregate. I just checked. Considering they have a much larger readership as well, I would be quietly pleased myself.

Apparently I feel like I have to write some sort of genius review in 200 words or more, every time and as such have a note book of meta that I write down when reading. Usually if it is something I really enjoy I will come back three times later with a comment.. but yes. Well. That and I feel the urge to hand out comments that run with 'you have a good grasp of the underlying tropes that ... but perhaps you could smooth the transition to the finish..' Grading leaves marks! :P

Well from this view, I want to say what you say and then end up going back and re reading the story to find something else to say, before making sure that no one else has posted a comment that will double up the feedback. Wow. That may have given you too much of an insight into what I was like at school. Also, the urge to give feedback on feedback is probably not right. :P

Eh. I have study, but even I need a break from study sometimes. That and christmas for me is very quiet as my dad is working. So I go back to the parentals and enjoy the peace, which means I can have a break from beating myself over the head with the doctorate.

I do believe sk was set at 'when you have had some sleep and are less incoherent we can set a time.' So, it is waiting to be set.

I will torture the metaphors!
