    I've put my iTunes on shuffle and I'll give you the first line of the first 20 songs that come up. You have to guess the song and the performer. And no googling!

    This is a dreadful week...
    I've been seeing far too many sad stories on my f'list recently (and one of them - about Brianna Lacey, a missing 15 year old from Chicago needs all the signal boosting it can get), but this story hits far too close to home...

    We learned yesterday that [livejournal.com profile] schadenkatze, someone I've known through fandom for more than a dozen years, lost her life to in a house fire early Sunday morning. Her twin [livejournal.com profile] schaden_freude (another long-term friend, and someone who had suffered a major loss not so many years ago), was only able to help their elderly mother from the home the three shared. The house itself and almost everything it contained was, as you might imagine, a great loss, but the loss of her twin sister is...unimaginable.

    ***

    From the Springfield News-Leader:
    Three people in the home -- a mother in her 80s and two daughters -- were asleep when the fire began. Scott said the deceased -- one of the daughters -- died from smoke inhalation... The mother was in serious condition at St. John's Hospital.
    The other daughter was not reported injured.

    ***
    Through the end of the month, [dreamwidth.org profile] lunaris1013 is taking up a collection on behalf of the Seacouver Social Club (a group formed via alt.tv.highlander during the days when much of fandom centered on newsgroups). I am only too aware that times are difficult for so many people, but if you can afford to donate anything at all, paypal links can be found on Dreamwidth and LiveJournal. And if you can't afford to donate, good thoughts for her mother's recovery would be more than welcome.

    Frolicon: call for panel ideas and panelists
    So I'm organizing the writers/writing Think Track at Frolicon this year.

    Frolicon is a convention that is a lot of fun; it's a crossover between a science fiction convention and a BDSM convention. You can see why I'm an appropriate person to be putting together some programming for it, no?

    So if you're a writer and can get yourself to Atlanta April 1-4 2010, please drop me a line if you are interested in speaking on panels and include any panel or workshop ideas you might have.

    The con website: http://frolicon.net/
    Livejournal comm: http://community.livejournal.com/frolicon/

    Last year we had panels on:
    How To Write Sex in SF & Fantasy
    Erotica & Sci-Fi, A Perfect Match?
    Ask The Writers (Q&A session)
    Slash Fiction 201
    (as well as a great panel/community roundtable on Race/Ethnicity and Cultural Appropriation -- which was a pretty heavy topic for Frolicon, but went amazingly well. The track I'm organizing is more on the writing/fantasy/BDSM intersections, though.)

    Drop me a line in email at ctan.writer AT gmail DOT com with your suggestions for panel topics and your bio if you're interested in speaking at the con.

    Panel suggestions from fans & readers are welcome, too! And feel free to point interested parties to this post.

    MERRY CHRISTMAS, [info]spidermoth

    Title: Shaped By Word and Wand: Part 1
    Author: [info]red_day_dawning
    Artist: [info]skitty_kat
    Pairing: Severus Snape/Charlie Weasley (not as student/teacher, post-Hogwarts only)
    Rating: NC-17

    Beta-reader/s: There ended up being a 'team' of beta-readers: [info]snapelike, [info]drachenmina, [info]gryffindorj and [info]slashpine all contributed. I very much appreciate the different skills all these betas brought to the fic, and am very grateful for their help. Special thanks to gryffndorj and Mina.
    A/N: Written for [info]spidermoth as a gift fic, promised so long ago that it's simply embarrassing. Merry Christmas 2009, [info]spidermoth, not only for the exquisite illustrations, but for the encouragement and the shared exploration of Mer-anatomy.
    Summary: Snape was waiting for him half-way down. He emerged from a clump of water-weed, and swam around Charlie, gliding and spiraling around him, his tail sparkling bronzey green and blue in the sunlight. He swam so teasingly close that Charlie could feel the currents of his movement washing against his skin. Charlie reached out, grabbing his shoulder, Snape twisted and slipped away. The feel of Snape's cool flesh tingled Charlie's fingers; Charlie laughed out loud, creating a wild froth of bubbles as he took pursuit.

    A Holiday Message for Some Special People...
    It's almost the end of another year and I know I don't like to start a new year with the thought that I have debts hanging over my head. I've contacted a few of you personally. But to be honest, I'm sure there are others of you I've forgotton because my memory is not what it once was, so I'm posting here. If anyone owes me something from a charity auction or from a commission I paid for, as of today, you don't owe me anything. We're starting the new year with a clean slate. Especially for the auctions, I donated that money for a reason and was happy to do so. And I'll do it again. But, please, don't feel this is something still hanging over your head. No worries, no problems. You don't owe me a thing. Happy holidays!

    Reccety rec rec
    Okay, so I am TOTES behind in reading and thus reccing, but I just received as a gift a GEM of a story that simply cries out to be shared. :)

    A Warm Reception is today's offering in [info]3fan_holidays and it's FOR ME! *bounces* And tailor made it is, too.

    Now you all know I don't automatically rec fics for me, but this one definitely deserves it. It's Drapery, and the characterizations are perfect. Severus is dour and snide, his wit as sharp as a shiv, and he needs help. When he finds a way to get the help he requires, Harry and Draco are there, and it's clear that they have a plan to get Severus both well and into their bed (not that I blame them). But of course, Severus has his own plan. ;) Oh how I love plotting Slytherins. *g*

    Whoever this is has a deft touch with language, just the little details in the story made me smile, and their Snape voice is SPOT ON.

    Go! Read! Review! Make a writer's day! :)

    Boosting the signal for a missing child in Chicago...
    As seen here: http://shadesong.livejournal.com/4026081.html?mode=reply

    [info]karnythia says: "This is my son's cousin. She may have run away, but we don't know that for sure. The police are treating her as a runaway so there is no Amber Alert. If you have seen this girl and have any information please contact the Chicago police at (312)747-8274. Or if you are just willing to spread the link, please feel free to do so. She's a kid and we're worried about her. Thank you."

    Pass it around, and Chicago folks, be on the lookout!

    Weekly Fic Wrap Up
    Weekly fic wrap up time!
    I'm almost afraid to see the list for this week as it's sort of been one big blur. Between work and life and fests I am hopelessly behind. It's my plan to spend a few days catching up with the multitude of fest fics that people have recommended to me, as well as to try to get ahead in some fic writing. We'll see what happens. ;)
    Anyway, on with the list:
    Ali's list of fics: December 14th thru December 20th )
    Here's what's coming up:
