Cool Neat Things

2012-06-25T14:31:35Z

My fic got nominated twice over at the HP Fanfic Poll awards!

Three Turns Through Darkness (2996 words) is currently nominated in the Summer Round 2012 in a couple of categories:

BEST POST-HOGWARTS-ERA STORY

BEST STORY PLOT - ALTERNATE UNIVERSE

BEST SUPPORTING CHARACTER (Draco Malfoy)

THE HP FANFIC FAN POLL AWARDS - SUMMER ROUND 2012
Overview FAQ / How to Vote
Voting period: May 1st - June 30th, 2012
Winners announced: by July 15th, 2012

Also, Out of Order (4406 words) was nominated in the Spring 2012 Round for the 'Best Comedy Story' category.

Last, but not least, I've had a really awesome two months over at H&V because some of my stories were rec'd by the featured reviewer!

UnseenLibrarian rec'd Amateur Cartography in May, and A Shadowed Land was rec'd by Willowkitty in June.

If you've never checked it out before, go see the 'Past Featured' page on H&V for all the past featured authors, stories, reviewers and reviewer recs. It makes for a really great reading list, which is why I'm really thrilled that two of my fics are on that page! They're in truly excellent company. :)

Thank you to all my readers! :D

Bit of a rare-pair beta and brit-pick request for Hermione/Scorpius

2012-04-11T17:08:31Z

Format mirrored from my post at hp_betas_wanted

Rating: Explicit
Pairing/Gen: Hermione Granger/Scorpius Malfoy
Need Help With: Grammar, sentence structure, light editing.
Deadlines?: Next two or so weeks would be ideal.
Warnings/Contains: Cross-gen relationship, but the younger party is in their early twenties. Total smut.
Other Info: So, I actually already wrote and posted this fic, but due to a deadline crunch I didn't have time to get a beta or have it brit-picked. A fact which is slowly gnawing at me.

Here's the fic: Recall (1569 words) by worksofstone
Summary: The summer after her divorce, Hermione finds more than musty books in Vienna.

As I mentioned earlier, it's already been posted, so I'm not looking to make major changes (POV, structure, plot), but I'm definitely open to sentence re-writes, paragraph restructuring, cleaning up clarity of language, grammar changes, and the like. :)

quick notice of upcoming schedule

2012-03-27T00:37:34Z

Alas, a couple of slightly unfortunate updates.

I notified the mods of my dropping out of two fests/Big Bangs: wizard_love and werewolfbigbang. I had to drop because of shifting commitments elsewhere.

I'm still currently participating in bigbang_mixup (deadline April 30th) and working on a currently over-due fic for an individual.

Other than that, I've cut my plans for future writing commitments down to the bone. There will likely be finished fic over the next eight months or so, but I expect to be working more on non-deadline fic in 2012 and 2013, as I'd like to avoid doing so many drops again.

Just an FYI for anyone out there. :)

Do Want

2012-02-16T15:51:35Z

FA100 : 82 - If by ~sororitysheep on deviantART

I think we can all come to an understanding that this picture needs ~~a fic~~ many fics written for it by many people. Slytherin!Harry, Harry and Draco friendship, and Flirty!Draco hitting on Ravenclaw!Hermione. DO WANT.

Also, head canon says that in this AU, Hermione's in the year before them.* So, now we get Draco with The World's Worst Hidden Crush** on that Girl Who's A Year Ahead of Him.

Yes. This needs to Be A Thing.

:D

*Given that her birthday's September 19, let's say that she made the cut-off for the class of '97.
** Except to Captain Oblivious (Harry) and Oh My God, You're So Annoying, Malfoy, Go Away (Hermione)

I really should be writing...

2012-02-02T02:10:58Z

Stolen from musyc:

Post ~~a random sentence (or three whole paragraphs)~~ something from every WIP you're currently working on, even if it's very short. Then invite people to ask questions about your WIP. With any luck, you'll get talking about writing, and the motivation to take that WIP one step closer to completion will appear as if by magic!

I have 'some' WIPs...

Recall (Hermione/Scorpius)

2012-01-29T16:58:12Z

Written for Kinky Kristmas 2011. This fic actually won me an invitation to participate in Daily Deviant (daily_deviant), which was completely unexpected and a tremendous delight! Alas, I had to decline, as I'd already booked the next eight months with Big Bangs, but simply receiving the invitation was fantastic.

bigbang_mixup

Big Bang Mix-up is now mirrored on DW! The premise is that you claim a mix and write a story inspired by the mix, and then artists draw something inspired by the story. They also have mixes still available for claiming, as well as some pretty far-off deadlines. ;)

Rough drafts due: March 1
Story Claims: March 5
Artist sign ups officially close: March 5
Finals due: April 30
Posting begins: May 1

oh thank everything

Big Bang Mix-up mods just announced, unexpectedly, that they're pushing back the deadline for rough drafts from January 10th to March 1st.

End of Year Review: 2011

2012-01-02T19:47:12Z

Format stolen from musyc, because it's an awesome format!

( Q&A )

Raw Numbers:

2010: ~3,000 words, one fic
2011: 68,369 words, 15 fics

*hyperventilates into a paper bag*

Fest/exchange/challenge comparisons:
deflower_draco || dramione_duet || kink_bingo || hp_zombiefest || hp_darkfest || dmhghalloween || dhr_advent || daily_deviant (Kinky Kristmas)

( Fic List! )

Writing Goals, 2011:
In retrospect, they were 'don't default on anything,' which I didn't achieve. I had to default on my Dramione Remix; it just wasn't happening. Other than that, I didn't default on anything else that I signed-up for and which was due in 2011.

Writing Goals, 2012:
1. Write 75,000 words (inkingitout)
2. Clear out my 'To-Do' List

( 2011 To-Do List )
3. Write femmeslash! :D
4. Clear out my WIPs, which should be combined with figure out what my WIPs actually are
5. Finish the damn Werewolf Big Bang and make it good
6. Don't sign-up for so much stuff in 2012
7. Sign-up for Deflower Draco
8. Ignore irony of #7
9. Try some non-Draco/Hermione ships.
10. Write two non-HP fics! (FMA OT3, anyone?)

edit - 11. Actually, let's make that don't sign-up for anything else in 2012 until Werewolf Big Bang is over. Exceptions granted for anything which ends in late 2012, as well as Deflower Draco. XP

A Statement of Commitment: Sign-ups Are Open for Werewolf Big Bang

2012-01-02T04:06:49Z

I have committed to writing this fic that has been rattling around in my brain for months:

"Possible Pairings/Focus: Guaranteed that it'll be a Draco Malfoy/Hermione Granger fic; R to NC-17; post-war AU with werewolf!Hermione and animagus!Draco. You can probably tell that I've already been outlining this one in my head."

Also, that is it for my sign-ups for the first half of 2012, barring whenever Deflower Draco runs. Besides that, I'm going to try to not even consider signing-up for another event until June 2012, at the earliest. If I somehow finish this werewolf big bang up early, I'm going to spend the time of my other non-fest WIPs. X_x

2011-12-12T19:56:05Z

Note: It is entirely possible that due to frustration with the damn thing, I may actually light my Advent fic on fire before it gets posted.

I have reached the stage where I am moderately sure I can, hopefully, save it. Maybe.

edit - Currently working on devouring the soul of this fic in a fit of rage. So. Many. Drafts.

edit #2 - Story is with betas. MWAHAHAHHHAAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAAHA.

Inking It Out 2012

2011-12-03T16:25:30Z

inkingitout: "This is a large word-count challenge that will run from January 2012 for anyone who wants to write at least 75,000 words next year. This is not fandom-only: the scope of the challenge includes original fiction, fan fiction, poetry, creative non-fiction, theses, dissertations, journalism, etc.!

If you'd like to be part of a supportive community of writers next year, please join us! Community membership is limited to those who are doing the challenge, so please sign up & then request membership."

I know that some of you are in college and graduate school, so I put the part about dissertations and theses in bold. :)

I signed up for this because I have some long plotty pieces I want to write, but I'm bad at passing on all the fests/exchanges and just setting aside time to write them.

The Otter and the Ferret

2011-11-12T15:31:41Z

For centuries, the war over whether otters or ferrets are the cutest Mustelidae has wracked the United Kingdom. Yet, will love blossom despite all obstacles? Malfoy, ferret prince of Wiltshire, has fallen in love from afar with the princess of the river otters, Granger.

Disguised as an otter by a helpful local witch, Malfoy enters the enemy camp determined to find and win the heart of his one true love. Will he find her? Will he win her heart? What will happen when Granger finds out that he's actually a ferret? Will Malfoy escape alive? What will this mean for the war?

(oh my god my brain I could not resist when I saw this photo. cannot believe I just wrote that. XD Photo of otters at Blue Planet Aquarium)

tumblr is so addictive...

worksofstone is turning into less of a fic-promo blog and more of a 'No, worksofstone, you cannot reblog ALL THE COOL THINGS, EVER' blog. Self-control, self-control...

Also, dear tumblr users, please credit people with text/link-throughs when you take photos from their flickr or other accounts. No love to people who snag images sans-credit.
