First of all...
Happy Birthday![[profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
scifichicx!
I hope your birthday was a good one. I can't think of anyone who deserves it more.
Second, as I'm sure most people know, I'm participating in a Robin Hood fic challenge right now, and we're looking for some artists who want to do art for the stories that have already been submitted. I think that some of the people who had originally volunteered have dropped off the map. So, we find ourselves in need of at least four artists who are interested in participating. I know I have some pretty talented folks on my flist, so I thought I'd spread the word. If you're a Robin Hood fan, have some artistic talent, and want to do something fun and cool for the fandom, check out the artists' sign up post here and the revised due dates here. What do you get out of this, I hear you ask? Well, you get a banner for taking part in the challenge, you get to read one of the stories before everyone else does, and you get to do something nice for an author who has put a lot of work into her story. (I think I'm safe in using "her" here...)
And finally... Oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh The Gathering Storm came out today and I don't have it yet because I ordered it on Amazon yesterday because it had a really good pre-order price and I don't know what to do with myself. *ahem* Sorry. This is the first time since I was in London that I haven't had a new WoT book on the day it came out, and it's making me twitchy. I'm not even done rereading Knife of Dreams yet, so it's not really that big of a deal. Except it is!!!! There are people out there READING IT right now, and I'M NOT! And considering the amount of grading I have left to do tonight, that's probably a good thing.
Happy Birthday
