The Lupin/Snape Lurve Community

No links this time because I'm just that rushed. Anyone who needs links, please either check the community archives or ask here and hope some other kind member will help out. ~_^

I know the Chocolate and Asphodel v.2 deadline was July 1, but as I'm swamped anyway, everyone feel free to take until July 20 as the new hard and fast deadline. At that point, the zine will be what it will be and I won't accept any more submissions.

Because the zine minimum for stories is 3000 words, there's still time for some of you to make it in, even if this is the first time you've heard of it. There is a beta and acceptance process to be in the zine, so the sooner you turn in stories, the better.

Artists, we could use some color and grayscale full-age pieces, if you're interested.

Please mail all submissions to ssrlzine at yahoo.com, although pieces mailed other places eventually find their way over there.

*****
The BLU archive should debut on Monday, however, I have a feeling it will be closer to Tuesday, as I am still missing a few things here and there. If you're on the BLU project and owe me art or a bio, please get it in!

*****
Oh, ok, one link:

Don't forget to update your desktop calendar to July, everyone! It's courtesy of ghot and I can attest to how lovely a background it makes.

*****
Retro Fest ends this month, so don't forget to make your claims and to work on your piece if you already claimed one!

*****
Happy 4th of July, everyone, because it's the 4th everywhere, and it's a Saturday, so enjoy (safely)! *HUGS COMMUNITY*

love, lore

I'm finishing up my Chocolate & Asphodel submission, and wanted to know if any artists had time to help with a few illustrations. It's a short, humorous fic that would be greatly enhanced with a couple of illustrations. Lore has given me a bit of extra time for the art so it's not *quite* as short notice as one might think.

Please e-mail me at kittencat3@charter.net for details. Thanks!

I'd like to take a moment to introduce some of our RL/SS resources to newcomers to the community and provide a reminder about the resources to oldtimers.

How This Works:
I'll determine what the theme is by drawing a theme randomly out of my King Kong trading card tin; the suggested prompts are from this poll, which is still open for suggestions.

Hi, guys -
I'm readying for Azkatraz and the Snupin Meetup, and thinking about doing some bulk printing for giveaways.
I figure that if I print in bulk, I can save money in general, and I'd be happy to include some other folks' work in that.

So - do any artists have postcard-appropriate art (200-300dpi, CMYK by preference, dimensions: 148 mm x 105 mm / 5.8"x4.1") that they would like to offer for the meetup?  I would limit the rating to PG-13, because I'm printing through an internet company. Perhaps next time my own printer will be up and running and eliminate rating limits.

Please comment (they're screened) or email me directly at zephrene AT gmail if you'd like to get in on the postcard run.

I'd like to have the art in hand by July 3rd in order to get them delivered in time for the con.

The last thing Severus needs at the moment is one more task to weigh him down, when he's already trying to cope with all that Albus is asking of him.
