Some fannish things

[thisbluespirit]

1. I had to default on justmarriedexchange, but I noticed this morning that I have a gift already! And guess what? When I did some present-shaking, it turned out someone had seriously gone and written my cracky Servalan/Palpatine prompt! 0_o

I only hope I have the strength needed to read such an amazing and terrifying thing come the end of the month. (It's going to be a long month waiting, but I'm happy to see that my defaulting won't have cost me a gift at any rate. And it's complete enough in draft that I will finish it for the recip at some point anyway.)


2. For anyone looking for fannish distractions, the sunshine_challenge has started, which is like the Snowflake Challenge, but in July.


3. tardis_library is having its annual Reccer's Bingo if anyone wanted to sign up for a card and join in.

Aww, sorry you had to default, but much better to do it now than at the last minute, of course. I hope you do get it done eventually, and that you enjoy your cracky gift of crack. :)

Thanks! I'm pretty sure I will type it up at some point, but maybe not till after the fest is over - and I don't need to feel I have any deadlines stopping me doing any other bits of writing that I may actually feel up to.

Sorry you had to default. I hope the gift isn't too scary and you don't explode with anticipation!

[thisbluespirit]

I shall try not to!

I'm amazed. Enjoy. Possibly with a hazmat suit on.

Thank you! I'm pretty startled and tickled myself. And worried about the evils I might have unleashed on the galaxy... XD

That... is a terrifying pairing, and very deserved on each side. I'd read that!

[thisbluespirit]

It is indeed - and hopefully you will be able to read it when the collection goes live! (Sometime early next month, I think? The writing deadline is the 26th, so it has to be at least a week after that.)

Sorry that summer isn’t going very well, but I found a thing to cheer you up: this video includes an interview with the costume designer of the Star Wars prequel trilogy all about Padmé’s outfits.

(IDK, you could probably feel it in the Force or something as soon as it was uploaded and you’ve already seen it.)

Aw, thanks, that's cool! And, no, I'm clearly not Force sensitive at all. XD
