Quite a good night out with vulgarweed . Anything I've forgotten in the haze, hopefully she can fill in later. Here's what I can recall, in a smaller nutshell (far larger nutshell on my LJ)...

( with photos )

AHAHAHAH my FACE. Yow. XD

That was SO much fun, dear.

quantum_witch September 23 2005, 21:42:18 UTC

Don't worry, my face was hideous as well XD Sucks to be non-photogenic. Trust me that you look just fine in person :D

vulgarweed September 23 2005, 21:46:35 UTC

The one of the two of us on your LJ is much better.

Oh well. It's not really about me anyway. ;)

quantum_witch September 23 2005, 21:52:29 UTC

Ah, well I thought I'd supress myself on Lower Tadfield, and subject people to only one pic of us ;)

He definitely is. Pity my camerawork was suffering last night *sigh*

OMG! DOUGLAS SMITH INTERPRETATIONS OF AZIRAPHALE AND CROWLEY? I could just DIE right now.

I'm glad you had a good time!

quantum_witch September 23 2005, 21:42:50 UTC

I did :D And I am SOOOOO looking forward to the illustrations!

hjbender September 24 2005, 00:52:58 UTC

Alas, my ignorance is barely excusable. Can anyone direct me to examples of Smith's work?

This page shows the covers for all Maguire's books so far, all done by Douglas Smith (who also illustrates throughout the books). It's annoying, Douglas Smith doesn't seem to have a site of his own :( Anyway... GORGEOUS work and very suitable style for C/A.

“So you’re a slasher then, are you?”

Ehehehe. Only on the week-ends.

He's the absolute best. :)

quantum_witch September 23 2005, 21:54:37 UTC

Well I could hardly say, "Oh my yes, I slash Crowley and Aziraphale like mad, and here's all the web addresses where I've posted stuff". Okay, I could have said that, but I wanted to keep his attention in a positive way ;)

hoskie September 23 2005, 22:02:46 UTC

"So you’re a slasher then, are you?"
I'm laughing so hard right now, you have no idea. How did you not die when he said that? O_O

quantum_witch September 23 2005, 22:33:16 UTC

Haha :D I was actually expecting him to say it, in a way. And I'm not a shy little kid anymore, I'm nearly his age. I don't blush easily ;)
