(no subject)

Those of you who are sick of seeing me pimp out [livejournal.com profile] fma_ladyfest: you are in luck! Because sign-ups end tomorrow (Wednesday) at midnight EST and therefore this is the last pimping post you will probably have to see. (Unless you belong to the FMA comms, in which case, uh, you'll be seeing like four more. Sorry?)

So basically, if you have been thinking about signing up, now is the time, this is the place. Join us! We have cookies. Well, okay, that is a lie. But we have awesome ladies and awesome writers, which is possibly better!


In other news, in honor of all the fantastic fic that is to come (AM I STILL TOO EXCITED ABOUT THIS? MAYBE YES A LITTLE) I am following in [livejournal.com profile] vivien529's footsteps and reviving the songfic game!

Name a work of fiction - book, movie, tv show, whichever; obscure is fine and welcomed, as long as you know that I know it - and whatever the next song is that comes up randomly on my iPod after I see your comment, I will describe to you the plot of the amazingly angsty and terrible songfic that would emerge from this combination! As a bonus, if the song is uploadable, I will upload it for you when I get home from work.

Example: You say, "The Cat in the Hat;" the next song that comes up on my iPod is "Don't Fear the Reaper"; clearly, this would generate a fic about the Cat trying to talk the fish into letting the Cat dump him out of his bowl, leaving his confined life for a passionate and freeing death!

(And then by the rule of the internet, of course, that fic will spring spontaneously into existence, but we can ignore that bit.)

I really wish I could sign up for the ladyfest but alas, I just started art school and I'm working on a webcomic in addition to that, so I know I won't have time. :( But I will be following it quite closely!

As for the meme... FMA. Haha.

BACCANO!. (I think I have made several posts to your journal that are just that one word. It is tradition.)

Aw, I wanted FMA. :p THE MIDDLEMAN!

(Unrelatedly, so, okay, because someone outbid you on the song auction in a truly frightening manner, I was thinking of doing the top two bids ... largely because I was interested in what you'd prompt me with. ^^;; Obviously because you didn't sign up for that in the auction and I don't know how many others you actually did win, I would not hold you to the donation, but if you still wanted to prompt me, I would still want to try?)

Becca, am I signing up for your ficathon?

ALSO, you need to read Gail Carriger's books. Soulless, Changeless, and Blameless is coming in less than a month. They're steampunk supernatural Regency romance with a kickass heroine. I think you would find them adorable.
