I have developed a system of bribery for when I am working on papers-a system of which I am rather fond. I find a good, long fic that I haven't read before and only read a chapter after I have reached a certain number of words. It's torturous and I'm not sure it actually helps because sometimes I am sucked in against my will (self-control? what is

1. I totally want to see you drunk.

2. I'm reading Maya Angelou's I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings" and am so in love with the language. She's a treat.

1. It's not that exciting. I giggle a lot and will probably tell you really awkward things about my life.

2. I have that book, but have never read it. I probably will, now. :)

Yay! I need a good Ginny icon too. And yeah, I love that fic madly, so I'm so glad I lured someone over to the darkside. Muwwwwwwwaaaaaaaaaa.

I never even tried the sequel though. Too bummed it was abandoned.

I read it-frustrating, because they just reached the point where she met Voldemort and I want to know what happens next, dammit!

I loved what was there, though. And I'm glad I read it, because so many of the characters who weren't in the first one were awesome.

Pansy?

Pansy, Harry, Hermione, Ron... I even almost liked Dumbledore.

And Voldemort wasn't a twirl-the-moustache villain. For once, I actually thought him competent.
