One of my favorite fics for last year, 'A Tragedy in One Act,' was nominated for the HP Fanfic Fan Poll Awards, in the category "Best Femmeslash Romantic Story." Thank you to whoever nominated me! I consider it an honor, considering the other stories up for voting.

I have been working my way through the excellent stories at hoggywartyxmas. I'm late, but who doesn't love a comment a month after a story has gone up? I only have three stories left, and if you're looking for something to read, I would recommend any story there. There are now so many characters I want to read more about (Galatea Merrythought, Filius Flitwick, Rita Skeeter, Fawkes, etc), and it's one of those fests that makes me reevaluate my stance on slash. Male slash, that is. Normally I could care less, but when the writing and plot are good, I gobble up a fic. I'm so looking forward to HP Beholder. I'm definitely going to participate this year. I feel ready. And I'm excited for more amazing stories!

Speaking of writing … I am supposed to post at the beginning of February at hp_kinkfest. I signed up last year, wrote a couple thousand words, and ended up dropping out. I signed up this year with the intent of finishing last year's fic, but I don't know. I'm just not in a kink headspace. I hate to drop out again, but I would rather do that than produce something I don't care for.

I'm working on some of my resolutions for 2012! Well, I have files started. They even have a few words in them.

I'm more on track for dysfuncentine. I have an idea in my head that is either going to be fantastic or horrible. I'm unsure if the idea will actually portray a dysfunctional relationship, but I'm hoping it works out. Anyone willing to beta or offer some opinions on it when I finish? I haven't started it, but I've got some notes, and I plan to have it done by February 3, a week before the deadline.
