I'm sitting right now, at half past nine on a Saturday morning, typing up this entry. LiveJournal seems to almost be on Harry Potter hiatus. Everyone's out reading the Deathly Hallows and I, who can't get the book until Monday at the earliest. I managed to find an audio book read by Stephen Fry (The Half-Blood Prince). It's absolutely lovely but I do wish that it would be available for purchase in normal stores over here. Alas, it's not.

Happy birthday [livejournal.com profile] mid_november, I hope you'll have a great one.

I've figured out that Doctor Who is the most crossover friendly fandom around. Closely followed by Harry Potter and then Buffy (but sadly, that fandom is almost dead these days *cries*). Would you like to read a Harry Potter/Doctor Who crossover? I'm thinking about writing one, but instead of using the "golden trio" (as they are called for some reason which has escaped me) I thought I'd much rather try out and use... like, Lavender, Ron, Luna and Draco. Harry's too wrapped up in his fight with Voldemort to team up with the Doctor anyway. Would you be interested in reading it? I feel a special fondness, especially for the three latter characters, and feel that Lavender... well, I blame it on the fact that she started to fancy Ron and that's what made me wanna write her in this :P

I have a newly found love for gen-like fics. Shippy stuff in all its glory but gen makes you hint things and you can hint the most outrageous things without having to bring them together (aka unresolved subtext). And especially in the Doctor Who fandom. I love Doctor/Rose as the next person, but I don't have to babble about how much the Doctor loves Rose beyond all else (erhm... he does love her but I can not make a comment on the old school because I haven't seen it) and instead focus on the story, which is a great deal much more fun.

I've just posted another chapter of The Doctor Will See You Now, which you can check out ;) If you want to :D

Yeah, it's a bit strange, but I think it's because people want to be first with giving their thoughts and to write the fics that the book will give birth to. A bit fanatic but yet understandable. Also, I suppose they don't wanna be spoiled so therefore they go Internet-less until they've read it.

It's so weird - there's like not a living soul anywhere :D My whole flist went silence.

I'll get my copy today, hopefully there's books left still. Now I need to isolate from almost all my friends since I don't want to get spoiled :)

Yeah, mine too, basically.

Good idea. My sister spoiled one of our friends once with the big spoiler of that book :P It's gonna take me a great while to read the book because I'm working on week days *le sigh* But I suppose it to be good, then I can enjoy it more.

One of my friends accidentally told be that Sirius will die before I had the change to read the oder of the phoenix. After that I've been so careful, since it's the worst feeling to know something like that before you even begin to read the book :D
