OMG -

I picked up the Dark Fever book by Karen Marie Moning this morning, because it had been so insistently recommended to me.

I absolutely devoured it.

Completely not what I might have expected - much more along the lines of the type of romance I think I would write, if I ever found myself in the position to write professional romance.  All plot and intrigue and romance as sort of a side plot, if at all; though a touch dark, the humour makes it a good kind of dark.

I just had to share that.  Now I'm off to see if I can finish Bloodfever before tomorrow.

Sleep?  Who needs sleep?

Okay, so I have no idea how many people this will effect, but I thought I should give some warning anyway -

in the next few days, I'm going to make this journal Friends Only.  My daughter has recently discovered fanfiction, and I can't even begin to describe how uncomfortable I would be if she read any of my more adult stories

                       O.o


The thought of having a conversation with her based off of "Why are the Weasley Twins doing that together?" Or similar is enough to keep me up at nights, frankly :-p


Anyway, I'm hoping to get the lock on by the weekend.

Totally Gakked from roaringmice 

I would chose Rex Stout's Private Investigator, Nero Wolfe, in a heart beat; even if he woudn't take my case - me being an emotional female and all :-p  That's alright, I'm sure I could fascinate Archie into helping me gain his cooperation *lol*

Would you believe my laptop died again, almost as soon as I finished posting my last post? *headdesk*

I'm now fighting for time on my husband's computer as we contemplate sending my laptop to electronics heaven, so I only get to actually write/beta/post/surf when he's not home and I am, as he needs his computer for work most of the rest of the time. Needless to say, this has slowed things down incredibly :-p

Without further ado, here's the new chapter:

Summary:

It’s a rescue, really. At least, that’s what Fred and George Weasley manage to convince him of. After all, Hermione is sure to be a target for revenge seeking Purebloods – what could any right-minded Wizard do but step in to help?

But with the shadow of Voldemort still hanging over a frightened community, Oliver is about to find out that the consequences of doing the right thing can get very out of hand!

This just looked like too much fun to leave alone...


1. Post a list of ten fandoms, or ten pairings, or ten fandoms each with a pairing.
2. Turn your music player on shuffle, and post the first ten songs it plays.
3. Your friends will take stabs at matching any fandom/pairing to any song they want, and post the fic (drabble) in the comments.
4. You may make up to three suggestions of fandoms/pairings and songs that you think would match well. Your friends don't have to take you up on them.
5. Repost to your own journal AND SPREAD THE FIC !

Fandoms and Pairings:

1) Star Trek:Enterprise - Trip  or Archer (paired with anyone or not) is always love
2) Harry Potter - Oliver/Hermione or Ginny or Charlie
3) Sailor Moon (and yes, Gabby, you can post Jadeite/Serena, if you like *grins*)
4) Platinum Garden
5) Harry Potter - Hermione/Charlie
6) Labyrinth
7) Fruits Basket - Torhu/Hatori, Tohru/Hatsaharu or Torhu/Yuki
8) Twilight - Edward/Bella (I feel like I've gone over to the dark side - I mean,this is a CANNON couple *hangs head*)
9) Harry Potter - Any
10) Twilight - Non-cannon couple

Songs:

1) Hazy Shade of Winter - Simon and Garfunkle
2) The Horror of our Love - Ludo
3) Mr. Blue's Menu - Blue October
4) Kill the Director - The Wombats
5) A Dustland Fairytale - The Killers
6) Paper Wings - Rise Against
7) Cat and Mouse - The Red Jump Suit Apparatus
8) Goody, Like Two Shoes - Matchbook Romance
9) Prelude 12-21 - AFI
10) Please - Ludo

Playlist can be found here, if you want to listen to any of the songs.

Honestly, I think a) Mr. Blue's Menu could suit any pairing under the sun b) I have this hilarious picture of a Draco/Hermione to Kill the Director, which probably qualifies me for a loony bin, somewhere and c) Obviously, The Horror of our Love would make a wicked-good Dark!Edward/Bella, or even ,more disturbingly, Carlise/Bella.

Drabbles  (and I do mean the old-school definition of drabbles: 100 words) are awesome, so don't feel like you have to write this big set up to go with your idea.  A scene, a conversation, anything that you were inspired to do by one of these songs - and the beauty of that is that you don't have to be able to explain it afterward as to why that song inspired what it did. 

Of course, longer fic is always candy  >.>

Participate or not, I love you all.

This story was written as a holiday gift for my dearling, nephthysmoon for being such an indispensable and squee-worthy friend and beta <3

There are small tie-ins with Consequentially Yours, but is definitely a stand alone piece.

Also, and I can't believe I forgot this and had to edit it back in, many hugs and lots of Viktor cookies are due to blackclaude  for her amazing and timely beta *hugs*

An Oliver Wood/Hermione Granger Romance

( The Road to Nowhere )

Okay, I just re-watched the Twilight movie, and I've decided a few things:

- I love the guy who plays Charlie.  He's got this wonderful dry humor going on, and though he wasn't anything like what I envisioned him to look like, I think he's become one of my favourite characters.  The whole scene at the hospital just kills me.

- Carlisle is entirely too hot

- The humour is well done.  My husband actually took me to see it, for an anniversary present, and he found it endurable because of the humour.

- I'm not sure how I feel about Hardwicke leaving the film.  I mean, on one hand, we might end up with an even better New Moon, but I liked Twilight, and it worries me that we might end up with the kind of thing that happened when Columbus left Harry Potter for the third movie. *shudders*

I've been tagged by nephthysmoon  ;

1. Post about something that made you happy today even if it's just a small thing.
2. Do this everyday for 8 days without fail.
3. Tag 8 of your friends to do the same.

I would tag, but I think everyone I know is already tagged for this...If you'd like to play, leave me a comment and consider yourself tagged :-)

Thursday:  Editing will hopefully begin tonight on the last chapters of Consequentially Yours, so this is very much a good :-)  I finished a new one-shot last night, which will hopefully doesn't suck and will be beta'd in the near future, so this is also very cool. 

Now, if I could just find inspiration for my wizard_love  assignment...  And the Twilight Fic I was hoping to start :-p

Friday: I received one of my commissioned Twilight fics from Stacie's Auction :-)  I can't wait until I  get a chance to read it.  Once it's up at Twilighted, I will of course pimp the hell out of it here.

Saturday: I have a horrible migraine, complete with debilitating nausea and auruas, but on the bright side, I got most of my remaining holiday shopping done this morning, before it hit *does a very quiet happy dance*

Sunday:  So far, today has been moderately awful. S. had a sleepover last night, and is completely cranky and horrible this morning, and of course, D. had gone out of his way to get Raptor's tickets for the two of them today, just a father-daughter outing.  She of course, told him in all her moody-ness, that she didn't like basketball, and didn't want to go (to her credit, she did try to be nice, or as nice as you can possibly be while being un-grateful).  D. is now heading to the game himself, while S. has just realised how much she has hurt his feelings, and has spent the last hour curled in my lap crying her heart out.  She is quite convinced her daddy must not love her anymore, and that she can never make it up to him, ever.

Frankly, I'm caught between feeling vindicated that at least she's learning an important lesson in empathy and appreciation, and horrible because she's so upset.

Edit:  Yay!  Now I has something happy to adds :-p  S. and I spent the evening connecting over video games, and we had a lot of laughs.  

Monday:  I got to spend some personal time with my husband this evening - we've both been so busy lately, I've been missing him <3

Tuesday: There was a very quiet wearhouse fire in one of the Salvation Army wearhouses back near Thanksgiving (Canadian, not American) and apparently a lot of the toys for local shelters came from that wearhouse.  One of the distribution centre's launched an article in the Sun, trying to get help, because they had over 1,000 kids signed up for toys on Christmas, and only six donated.  (this was last week, btw.  That's pretty desperate O.O)

Anyway, the fun part of all this?  I  got to spend a very cool hour and a half in a toy store, without any specific list, just looking at every single toy and seeing what the coolest possible thing was for under $20.  It was so fun - and I can't tell you how stupidly excited I am about how well I think I did *laughs* .  Now I want to be there when these kids open their presents, just to see if I did as well as I thought I did ;-p 

Wednesday: I got a new bra today.   It's blue and very pretty ;-)

Thursday:  Yay!  The last day of my meme ;-)  Today, I'm happy about all the Hannuka and other holiday wrapping I got done.  I turned on Bones, watched like four episodes straight while drinking my eggnog coffee and just went to town wrapping.  Not only was it a great way to de-stress what is normally one of those very 'omg - I can't beleive I'm not done this yet'  kind of activities, I just had a great couple of hours to myself.

It's been snowing here, these great big fluffy flakes, off and on all day - and you just can't help but feel all warm and Christmas-y inside, watching it (especially if you are watching it, as I am, from INSIDE.  I'm sure my husband may not be so fuzzy feeling about it when he has to drive home tonight).

Since a certain Floridian that is dear to my heart wanted to see some of my snow, I thought I would post this for all the warm-climate people to enjoy vicariously :-)

( A Winter Wonderland )


See?  All the snow and none of the shoveling for you guys :-p  Though, if anyone wanted to volunteer, my driveway is about a foot deep at the moment.

So, if I tell you I finished writing Consequentially Yours over the course of NaNoWriMo, do you guys think that be worth some love under my little tree?
