Thanks to
hirschkuh for a fun contest. There was a abundance of fantastic entries. I don't envy her having to choose one as a winner.
On to the next contest!
Severus has at least one room lined with books at Spinner's End. Are these all treatises on potions and the Dark Arts, quaint and curious volumes of forgotten lore? Or does he have a collection of favorite fiction he can lose himself in when his multiple responsibilities get too tough?
What would Severus read? What characters can you imagine Severus interacting with? What literary character does Snape remind you of? What story would Severus become engaged in?
That is the snarc contest for April: Snape in a work of literature. (I was going to limit this to children's books, then I considered all the Mr. Darcy Snapes I'd be missing... *swoon*... and changed my mind. Note: Mr. Darcy Snapes are highly encouraged.)
The contest will last until May 2. The usual rules apply. You don't have to be a great artist to enter. Stick figures are love. The funniest entry will get a prize, the nature of which has yet to be determined.
Here's an ArtPad drawing done for Lewis Carroll's birthday to perhaps inspire you (done with a mouse, although it's so ancient I can't remember how --
here's a link -- I was looking at another drawing, of course):
Have fun!
