Friending Frenzy! Wheeeeeeee!

Welcome to The Phoenix Flies Kick-off Friending Frenzy!

At over 70 members, more than 180 watchers, 60 prompts and more than 40 claims, we're off to a fantastic start! (Rumor has it that there are fics that are already done and ready to be posted... submission guidelines will be posted soon.) So while we all wait for next Monday's posting to begin, we're going to start things off with a little friending frenzy. Now's the time to catch back up with all your old friends from The-Site-Which-Must-Not-Be-Named as well as making some new ones as well.

Step 1: Copy the template and paste it into a new comment.
Step 2: Fill out the template with your own information
Step 3: Post the comment.
Step 4: Browse through the comments and make new friends!

Template:

Now, let the word go forth that the friending frenzy has begun! (That means "pimp.") This frenzy is being hosted by

phoenix_flies but anyone may participate. You don't have to be a member or watcher to have fun and make friends here (although, of course, we hope you'll want to watch and play along!) Posting begins on August 27th and the next community event is scheduled for September 8-9. (Specific details to follow soon!)

So what are you waiting for? Get to friending!

IJ/GJ name:

suemonroe
*Other*-journaling site name: same as above
Your age: 29, again
For friending purposes, does age matter to you?: not so much, but I tend not to friend folks under 18
How you participate in fandom (writer/artist/beta/icon maker/vidder/lurker/official wearer of slinky red knickers): I write slowly, read obsessively, and am always willing to beta most anything
Favorite HP characters/pairings: Hands down Severus Snape is my favorite character. And while Snarry is my prefferece I will read Severitus, Snape adots Harry fics as well. Other pairings, Harry/Bill or Charlie. Just read my first Snape/Charlie, and it was good.
Least favorite characters/pairings: I don't get Draco, and most of the time don't like him. Ginny irratates me, I noticed the trend tonight *grins* and feel right at home.
Favorite book from HP canon: Hard to pick, but probably OotP
Other fandoms that you dig: I've been known to read LotR or PotC... recently found a Dracula slash that was good too.
Anything else you want us to know?: I like new friends, I tend not to post much, but will comment fairly often.

	I'm with you on the Draco and Ginny sentiments. I love your story, btw. I think I've not commented cause I read it on ff.net (yes, lazy I know). (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	suemonroe 2007-08-24 06:05 am UTC (link)
	Hehe, no worries, I'm pretty bad about commenting myself. I'm glad you like it. Did you read the others I've done shameless self-pimping I've not moved them here yet, but will soon. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ivylady 2007-08-24 06:13 am UTC (link)
	No, I don't think I have. Hmmm, must go read them sometime soon. Nothing wrong with shameless pimping. I've got a few ficlets at my IJ. Wanna check them out? bats eyes I've recently found a liking for Severitus as well. I think Snape and Harry are very cute together as father and son. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	suemonroe 2007-08-24 06:16 am UTC (link)
	I'll look at yours if you look at mine. God that sounded dirty. Good thing we are where we are and who we are... lol (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ivylady 2007-08-24 06:19 am UTC (link)
	LOL. It did sound dirty, but I understood. Thanks for the laugh though. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	swansong33 2007-08-24 06:08 am UTC (link)
	Oh, I love Severitus stories too! I honestly just think I'm enraptured by the whole Snape/Harry dynamic and love to watch them interacting in any way. I'll read those two with just about anyone so long as there is tons of interaction between them either as father/son or as mentor/mentee. Friending you too! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	suemonroe 2007-08-24 06:11 am UTC (link)
	Yeah, I have to agree, as long as they're fighting, trying to get to know each other, come to an understanding, bonding, falling in love, yeah, I'll read it. There's just something about Severus and Harry. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	nightcolors 2007-08-24 06:49 am UTC (link)
	I love Snarry, and I enjoy Severitus or Snape raises Harry fics, as well. I've only come across a couple of Dracos that I like (and I read lots and lots of fics.) Gotta agree with your Ginny comment as well. g I'll friend you, if that's okay with you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	suemonroe 2007-08-24 01:22 pm UTC (link)
	The more the merrier. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	f13tch3r 2007-08-24 07:55 am UTC (link)
	Oh isn't Harry/Bill sinfully delicious? I don't know what it is about that pairing. And Snape is all things at all times. Love Snape. (pbuh) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	suemonroe 2007-08-25 02:49 am UTC (link)
	You know, thinking about it I realized I don't think I've read a Harry/Bill that I didn't like. Sadly there's not nearly enough of it. And Severus Snape. Just yum. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	f13tch3r 2007-08-25 08:23 am UTC (link)
	It's true! I don't know why but Bill/Harry is always a sparkling delight. I don't think I've read a bad BW/HP fic either, thought to be honest that pairing was usually a side ship to the main event whenever I've read them. It's a good rare-pair. :) SSssssssssssnnnnnnnaaaaaaaaaPE! (Reply to this) (Parent)

	chiralove 2007-08-24 02:56 pm UTC (link)
	Hey ... Snarry fen should stick together, eh? :) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I've friended you. I hope you don't mind. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	suemonroe 2007-08-25 06:43 pm UTC (link)
	Not in the least. I friended you back. The more the merrier, lol. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	quite_grey 2007-08-25 11:15 pm UTC (link)
	I like Severitus when it's well-done, too. Have you ever read Blood Magic by Gateway Girl? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	suemonroe 2007-08-25 11:24 pm UTC (link)
	Yes, that one is really good. And though it's not a Severitus, Resonance by GreenGecko is another I really liked. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	quite_grey 2007-08-26 12:02 am UTC (link)
	Cool, I'll have to add it to my reading list. I don't think I've read any GreenGecko. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	suemonroe 2007-08-26 12:05 am UTC (link)
	Oh, it's really good. Lots of magical ideas, and the realtionship between Snape and Harry is really well done. Her website is Here (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	quite_grey 2007-08-26 12:22 am UTC (link)
	Sweet, thanks for the linky! (Reply to this) (Parent)
