Festivus!

snapecase are all posting right now, and I am as happy as a very happy thing that is happy! Everyone has outdone themselves this year -- hoggywarty has some fabulous stories about Garrick Ollivander in particular, while over on the giftfest someone actually wrote original music to go with their story -- ye gods!!

My gifts were so wonderful, too: Someone wrote me a very funny, distinctly clever, and rather sweet Discworld crossover featuring the Librarian from Unseen University along with Nanny Ogg and the rest as visiting lecturers at Hogwarts (Ook), while some amazing artist created these rather snarky and entirely adorable christmas cards exchanged between Snape and Minerva.

Go, read, enjoy, and leave all these amazing gifted creators some love :)

Yep, I wrote these

snapecase continues to post, with some truly excellent contributions this year. if you need a little more Snape in your life (and who doesn't??), be sure to check it out.

HoggyWartyXmas and sshg_giftfest have ended and reveals are up, so I can now own up to having written the following:

Dreams of Time, Time of Dreams (LJ) (AO3) - They see each other, but through a glass darkly; will they ever see one another face to face? (SS/HG)

For Goodness Snake (LJ) (AO3) - Hermione takes on not one but two new positions at Hogwarts. Severus is not at all convinced that it’s a good idea. (SS/HG)

Silent Night (LJ) (AO3) - When Poppy insists that Minerva take a little time on her own in Scotland over Christmas, memories and regrets about a certain colleague threaten to make it anything but a happy holiday. (SS/MM)

I enjoy all three of these fests so much -- the quality is always top-notch, and the community of creators and readers is always so active. Everyone comments, talks about what they like, encourages each other, and generally has an excellent time :)

I adore this time of year

sshg_giftfest is winding down with its final post coming on Saturday, while snapecase has begun posting and continues until our favorite anti-hero's birthday on January 9th. Both fests are, as always, filled with meticulous crafting, lovely art, and extraordinary writing. Whether your catnip is angst or AU, humor or hawt, there is something here for everyone. Stop in and indulge your love of all things Snape :)

Also, of course, the best holiday party anywhere is going on over at hoggywartyxmas. Everyone is there, from Neville to Irma Pince (and more than a few are taking a dig or two at a certain twinkly Headmaster!). Do not miss this, whatever you do.

Thanks, and some pimpage

Heartfelt thanks to you all for your kind and comforting comments on my last post. Mr Psmith and I are slowly getting used to the house without our beloved Demi; it's tough and it hurts, but she's always in our hearts so we feel like she's still close to us.

On a happier note,

sshg_promptfest is open for claiming! There are some wonderful prompts this year, so go forth and stake your claim :)

We miss you :( If I could have one wish, it would be to have seen you as Valmont in Dangerous Liaisons -- hubba hubba!!

Current Mood: writery

If you like excessive Tolkien geekery...

Reveals are up over at

sshg_giftfest, so I can now cop to being the author of the following:

Title: Riddles in the Pub (fest site) (AO3)
Word count: ~7700
Summary: Having retreated to a small town in Scotland to get away from unwanted publicity, Hermione is surprised to discover someone there who shares her love of a particular author.

Being a Tolkien fan from way back (we won't say how far back), I really enjoyed giving Snape and Hermione free rein to argue, discuss, and debate various aspects of Tolkien. My recipient,

lenaa1987, was also entirely pleased, which makes me very happy indeed :)

Current Mood: weepy

I'm not crying. Really, I'm not. OK, yes, I am.

My gift posted today over at

hoggywartyxmas and oh, my, is it a thing of wonder. If you like stories that break your heart and then put it back together again in a most satisfying and lyrical manner, please take a moment to go and read:

Through the Spiral of the Years

Current Mood: delighted

I can haz SS/HG prezzies!!

My gift has posted over at

sshg_giftfest, and it is stellar. I don't know who the Mystery Author is (though I have a suspicion), but they've got a magic quill, whoever they are. Run, do not walk, to this delightful tale of a novel come to life and a bit of Christmas cheer which totally made my night :)
