geeky
Oh, wisest of flists! I'm sure you will be able to answer this question.
Is there any kind of universal guide to English grammar? Something similar to the Grammatik Duden for German? Somewhere where you can find all the rules?
I would love to have a reference like that!

You have to see this artwork. Even if you are one of the few people on my flist who aren't Potter fans, you will want to see this work of art! The artist's style is so wonderful. I love the choice of materials, the moments the artist shows, the character's postures, the symbolism in the details. *sigh*
Have a tiny, tiny preview (there are over 20 panels of this goodness!) to convince you. :)To Separate from Life @

optimistic
At the meet-up I've been talking with some of you about online courses for creative writing. I remembered that I promised to post the link to where I found them.10 Universities Offering Free Writing Courses Online
The coolest thing about this is that I discovered the MIT offers a wide variety of free online courses in all fields. Do have a look.~~~
I've changed my default icon. It's still Starbuck (I can't get away from her *sigh*) but I like the colours better in this one. I also changed the majority of the rest of my icons since I'm too cheap to buy a Paid Account and I was getting bored with the ones I had. *g*
Let me present my new online-face:

awake
I saw a really, really brilliant fanvid just now! I know that most of my flist will probably run screaming as soon as I mention that it's a Draco/Ginny vid, but please bear with me.
This vid is an example for why I love fanvids. I've been talking tovaysh11 about it this summer: a good fanvid needs to take previously existing material and convincingly tell a different story.
"Diary Of Draco" does exacly that! It is brilliantly cut (something I find rare in HP fanvids), the vidder uses almost exclusively HBP material and builds a new little universe in only 2 minutes. In the end I could even believe the Sectumsempra scene was a duel for Ginny. o_O
Watch it!

Title: Wild Thing
Author:joan_waterhouse

Warnings: Flangst
Word Count: ~400
Summary: Remus worries, but then he finds an old children's book and his mood begins to brighten.
A/N: Written for thehp_uk_meetup goody-bags.
I usually neither read nor write this pairing, but I'd just seen trailers for Where The Wild Things Are and this little bunny showed up demanding that I write this ficlet. ;) Enjoy.

- Sortable Career Fair List

I was bored but didn't feel like reading. This frequently leads to me tinkering around with my computer or online stuff.
A while agofaithwood posted How To Make a Sortable List Using Google Sites and I wanted to try this out ever since I read it. Turns out making such a list is really, really easy! Combine this with the fact that I can barely keep up with all the hd_career_fair fics and they keep weighing down my browser with those gazillion open tabs.
So I made asortable hd_career_fair list
where I can check if I read something already and if the word count is in a range that I can manage at the moment.
I will try to keep this updated, but don't rely on it! You're welcome to use it as a master list, as long as you don't start to prod me 'cause I haven't read or commented on a fic yet! ;)

My flist will remember my slyther-shirt slogan poll a few month ago. I promised to make text icons from all the slogans. Finally I got around to doing that. Have fun. :)
Since these icons are a small gift for my flist I won't crosspost them, but they are still shareable for everyone who stumbles over this post and wants them. ♥

ecstatic
I'm following the cricket quite enthusiastically right now (well, as enthusiastically as an Austrian girl who educated herself by reading "Cricket for Dummies", who went to 4 or 5 cricket training session maximum in her life and who has never been able to watch an entire match can follow it) and was just listening to the TMS (Test Match Special) online right now.
Imagine my squee of pure fangirl love, when it was announced that Tom and Dan are going to be on air during lunchtime. :D
( Tom and Dan interviewed at lunchtime at the TMS (there's a pic too) )
Snitch Seeker are probably posting an audio of this interview, until then there's their summery.
UPDATE: There's now a youtube-video of this interview here on feltbeats.com. UPDATE2: turns out it's only audio. :/ Which you'll get in a better quality from the official podcast site.
