We had an amazing set of authors and artists sign-up for the [livejournal.com profile] hd_worldcup. In the end, no vidders signed up so we had to redo the numbers for each of the positions. I'm thinking it's an awesome thing as there's another artist position and art is love <3.

The 2009 Teams! There's some amazing quality right there. New and returning people, new and well-known names. I'm very excited for this round! I was a bit worried there for a bit that we wouldn't have enough sign-ups but some awesome pimping by flist members (yes, I credit all of you) and at some awesome communities really got the ball rolling. <3 you all!

The only bit that annoys me with HDC is that I keep getting asked if I write H/D (and poor [livejournal.com profile] accioscar can attest to the look I get on my face when people ask me this. It's sort of twisted up and stuffs :P). I DO! I HAVE! Just, um, not really since DH. My Memories have my fic in it. Though, um, ignore Voice in the Dark. It's bad an abandoned WIP. And the [livejournal.com profile] hd_365 won't make much sense unless you read the comm as so much of it is based on the comm as a whole.

My 7 fave H/D I've written in no specific order are:
Moments
White
Dandelions and Dreams
Moments of Truth Between the Lies
The Latin Trilogy (Deprecor, Experior, Insequor).
One Last Fare (One Last Fare, Dreaming in Madrid and A Long Overdue Conversation)
and A Good Book (see? I've even participated in H/D Centric Fests!)

Most of them aren't happy (and only one of them is DH compliant) but I don't think I write 'happy' well. Some of them aren't the strongest writing as I've matured since then. But they all have a special place in my heart. So, see? I do write H/D. I have about 4 started... I just haven't finished any of them. /defence of my H/D involvement.

So what are you guys most looking forward to at [livejournal.com profile] hd_worldcup? What's your favourite piece from last year? What team are you cheering on?

ETA: GreatestJournal is back up until January 30th if you guys need it. Not sure if some of you were aware but I remember reading a few posts about lost rpgs.

You did not! *laughs* I can't imagine you doing that! *snorfles* If/when we meet sometime somewhere in our lovely state, I promise to ask you that exact same question in place of a normal "Hello"! *laughs* Well, I've actually been asked that a fair amount in the locker room. So I can undestand the mind boggling quality of it all! :)

Yes! Keeping up with my self-imposed gag order last year was torture. I couldn't rec anything or squee about fics! It was really painful! Why did I sign up for this again?! *laughs*

I just hope my brain will cooperate again this year. I don't want to come up with dreck. That would be embarassing. *laughs* But I am excited for prompts!
