I got notification that the new archive, The Quidditch Pitch, chose my story Droit Du Seigneur as a featured story for the first month. That in itself is awesome, plus they sent me this cool banner:





But even that doesn't tickle me as much as this--they sent me interview questions! Questions like, "What advice if any would you give to other writers? What serves as the inspiration for the stories you write?" I can't help it; I've always wanted to be on the receiving end of that! I mean, I could have written up something like that anytime and posted it on my lj, but it's the having been asked of it, you know? Squee!

Droit du Seigneur is, in my completely unbiased opinion, the ultimate Lucius characterization. The I Ching of Lucius. So disturbing and so wonderful and so very, very hot. And I think I've said this before, but it was actually the background H/D in here that converted me to the ship from Snarry, which I think speaks volumes about your abilities when it comes to the details and wholly believeable setting of everything you write. Congratulations on this! Seconding [livejournal.com profile] drusillas_rain up there, I hope you do this interview and link it, too. ♥

*gibbers* You gotta be kidding. You mean you haven't been sailing the H/D ship since, like, the dawn of time?? OMG that's too much to be believed. (And by the way I remember that picture the icon comes from, bwah ha ha!) I don't know how believable I think DdS is, hee, but it gives me the pleasant squirmies and that's just how I write sometimes. Oh, heck, thank you!

Well, this was awhile ago. :) I was still on my first fic ever, my one and only novel-length Snarry, when I read DdS, and it was highly troublesome. I'd always wondered what the appeal of the H/D ship was, and there it was, in plain sight. I tried to sail both for a bit, but... you know how it goes. :) I do read (and sometimes even write) non-H/D sometimes, but one cannot fight the OTP forever! The sable, btw, kills me. Mmmm. You're welcome! Thanks for writing it, if it comes to that! :)
