What a Difference a Year Makes / Snape Art Contest

This weekend is the one-year anniversary of my signing on to the Internet and discovering that I was not the only woman in the world who spent too much time thinking about Severus Snape. I never knew there was such a thing as fanfiction. Seriously, all I intended to do was google the name “Professor Snape" to see if I could find a T-shirt. After ( Read more... )

Yay! So glad you found fandom, no matter how improbable it was!

Just to let you know, both links are broken. Here are the links as they stand:

http://www.livejournal.com/users/_vocalion_/%3E%20http://artpad.art.com/artpad/painter/

I think you just need to cut out everything before the second "http" in each link.

I'm going to try to enter this time, but we'll see. I'm really horrible at this!

Thanks, Annie! I owe much of the story's success to you. I'm so glad we met at FA! Don't be shy. Contribute a painting! :-)

But you managed to animate your avatar! I wouldn't have the slightest idea how to do that! :-)

Are you making potato salad this year or will you be writing poetry to a fictional character again? LOL!

Another artpad contest! This is a good one!

Potato salad, unfortunately. But at least I get to try out a new recipe this year. ;-)

Well, SeaIsleWitch already asked the potato salad question, so I will merely say that I am glad that you are still here and still writing.

As for the contest, it looks fabulous (if a bit daunting) and I'll have you know that I went out and bought a mouse for my laptop just because of you and ArtPad (the touchpad works for most things, but not for illustration).

I lied and told others that it was because of ergonomic issues. *grins slyly*

No, it is of the corded, el-cheapo variety, but it serves my purpose. Dammit, it serves ART!

We used "el-cheapo" a lot when I was growing up! LOL! That's probably why I splurged for the cordless model...Na na na na na! (Or as my kids say, nanny, nanny, boo boo!)

Congrats on the anniversary. I have just read My Snape Escape and I would choose it over potato salad anyday of the week, holidays included.

Now I'm off to do some beguiling!

Thank you, Vanityfair! I'd much prefer staying online and writing tomorrow, but I'm stuck. :-(

I hope you will find numerous ways to beguile the Potions master and contribute many paintings! Thanks for dropping by, and happy 4th!
