Hi alaranth_88,
We have recieved payment confirmation from waltzmatildah for their bid on you in our auction.
Amount: $10.00
Also, please note that our archive community fandomaid (which we will also use for future charitable auctions) is up and running. Please be sure to join and archive your work!
Re: DONATION CONFIRMATIONwaltzmatildahJanuary 25 2011, 10:02:14 UTC
Thank you!!! The success of the auction COMPLETELY overwhelmed me! I originally posted my own offer and mentioned to my Grey's Anatomy flist fic writers that if they wanted to join in they could. Then I went to bed.
The next morning I woke up to TWO HUNDRED emails!!! And over SIXTY authors signed up!! It was INSANE!!! In the end I think I finished with just under 350 authors and about 500 fics on offer (as some people offered up to 10). I ended up having to recruit a couple of awesome people from my f-list to help me out!
I don't know if you've checked out fandomaid yet but I'm keeping up a total on there of how much we've raised. It's... WOW!
As for what I'd like... I'll be back with those details in a few minutes!!
Re: DONATION CONFIRMATIONwaltzmatildahJanuary 25 2011, 10:06:27 UTC
My fandom choice is definitely White Collar (you'll probably be shocked to read that I've never seen either of the other two... nor read any of the HP books!). I LOVE WHITE COLLAR!!!
As for my preferences, I'm pretty easy. Neal is my favourite character and angst is my favourite genre but if either of those things work for you then it's fine because I really do love all the characters!
Do you prefer to work from a vague (ie. I like Neal and angst) prompt or would you like something more specific? Because I can provide either... I love fic. LOVE IT and I'm pretty easy to please! And I realise I'm probably being ZERO help to you right now!! Haha! SORRY!!!
Re: DONATION CONFIRMATIONalaranth_88January 27 2011, 12:33:31 UTC
Yay, White Collar! Neal is lots of fun to write, he's such a sweet boy. Do you have any particular ships you do or don't like? I've got an idea for a fic, but it may end up being Neal/Peter/El - will that be ok?
Also - $12, 462! That is incredible. The community looks fab, and the generosity of fandom is astonishing and touching. Well done you for making this possible. :)
Re: DONATION CONFIRMATIONwaltzmatildahJanuary 28 2011, 11:35:14 UTC
Neal is lots of fun to read, too!!!
I'm not hugely keen on Peter/Neal, but I do read it so if that's where your fic goes then no worries at all. I prefer canon as far as 'ships go, but seriously, I just love the show so I'm really not very hard to please!
One thing though, Australia is a couple of episodes behind where the current episodes are at. I've only seen up to Point Blank so if you're going to do something that relies heavily on a more recent episode then you'll need to give me a heads up to watch the episode (which is absolutely fine!) Otherwise, I'm good to go!
The only other thing you should know about me is I am an angst/hc junkie!! So I won't say no to that either! But honestly, I will read (and no doubt LOVE) anything that you write, because I really do enjoy the show a lot!
Re: DONATION CONFIRMATIONalaranth_88February 20 2011, 22:37:49 UTC
Ok, so its almost finished and just needs a bit of tidying before I'll be happy with it! But it does draw on the new episodes, and the first part won't make sense if you haven't seen at least episodes 10 and 11 of season 2. So if you haven't, you should probably go look them up. :)
Otherwise, the fic should be finished by the end of the week! I hope you enjoy it. :D
Re: DONATION CONFIRMATIONalaranth_88February 28 2011, 14:08:25 UTC
Ok, so its finished. Or at least finished enough that I'm happy with it, and I had better send it now and not spend months tweaking tiny sentence changes. :P
Where would you like me to I send it?
Also, final word count was 1,751 words because I fail at writing short things. ;D
Re: DONATION CONFIRMATIONwaltzmatildahMarch 1 2011, 00:31:07 UTC
HEEEEEEEEEEE!!
SO EXCITED!!
You can post it to fandomaid if you like... It's the archive community we set up for the auction.
And I soooo hear you on the failing to write short things!! The last charity thing I did I was supposed to write 1500 words and I wrote 4200!!! Haha! Oops! Sometimes you just need to SAY stuff!!
Fandom/s: Merlin, White Collar, Harry Potter.
