Journal of Mistress Kat

The Connotations Slash Con ran a writing workshop, during which people were asked to write a drabble in ten minutes using the randomly selected prompt words. These were: peach, pendulous, and whisker. You can imagine that there were some rather pornographic drabbles that came out of that one. I went the other route (yes, I know, I didn’t write porn. Shock horror.) and thought I’d post it here for you guys.

Oh my God, people. Oh. My. God.

What an amazing, amazing weekend! I'm finally back from Connotations Slash Con and tired from three days of cottaging, fannish squee, too much booze (people kept buying me drinks, it wasn't my fault!), too little sleep (that may have been a little bit my fault...), gay porn, kermit porn (don't ask), sea air, and wonderful, sparkly people!

There will be a some sort of Con Report later in the week once I've recovered. goetterdamerung has threatened to write cracky RPS of our con adventures, but I'm not entirely sure if that will be fit for public consumption...

Anyway, I'm going to get some dinner now and then probably faceplant into bed. I'll try to catch up with my F-list but if there's something you think I shouldn't miss, please to be commenting...

Hugs to all!

Today I will be off to the Connotations Slash Con on Tynemouth and quite frankly I feel like a little kid on a sugar high! *runs around in circles*

I'm catching a lift tomorrow with the lovely moth2fic and her daughter fledge. moth2fic is coming to pick me up this afternoon and I'm staying overnight at her house so really Kat's Great Con Adventure starts today!

I'll be "cottaging" with pushkin666, alphekka_alpha and goetterdamerung and very excited meeting them all for the first time.

And if that wasn't enough I also (hopefully!) have a coffee date with ginnystar and inkblot_fiend in Newcastle on Monday morning/noon before I catch my bus back home.

AWESOME, Y/Y?

Anyway, as a result of all this RL fannish squee, I will be mostly offline from tonight until Monday evening. If the separation proves too much, feel free to abuse my mobile.

Now... I should probably pack, yes?

Fandom Update

There’s a Finnish saying: “Kukas kissan hännän nostais, ellei kissa itse.” It translates roughly to “Who’s going lift the cat’s tail, if not the cat herself?” which seems like an excellent excuse for some self-promotion…

Oh people I have thingies for you, yes indeedy! I have been busy…

• Posting Porny Music! Dirty, nasty songs just for you, go check it out. 

• Squeeing about Connotations!!! OMG people, I’m going! For reals! I’ve sent the registration form and cheque and booked the accommodation! pushkin666 and myself are sharing a cottage, because it’s much cheaper than the hotel. We need two other people to share, so if you think talking about slashy shows and slash-fic writing with meeeeeee (and a lot of other people) 12-14 October in Tynemouth sounds like a fantastic idea, go check out the con website… Sharing the cottage with pushkin666 and yours truly for three nights will only cost £50 plus whatever we spend on food/drinks. *tempts F-list*

• Sorting out the next four Themed Vid Recs of Doom, so you can anticipate a barrage of quality fanvids over the summer. I know a lot of you only d/l vids that are in the fandoms you know/follow, which while understandable, means you miss out on some fabulous stuff. Take a walk on the wild side! You might find something shiny…

• Flailing like a big flaily thing, and making noises that cause bats to change course on five-mile radius, because someone/s *eyes F-list suspiciously* went and nominated four of my stories for a sgdiverse_award. So, Atlantis Santa, Five Things Carson and Rodney Share (and never thought they would), Simple Pleasures, and Unfair are all in the running, and the voting starts on the 15th and lasts until 30th. I’m not telling you this because I want you to go and vote for my stories. No, I’m telling you because you should go and check out all the fantastic stories nominated. sgdiverse_award is for the rarer m/m, f/f, and various three- or moresome slash stories (i.e. no het as main pairing and no McKay/Sheppard) and aims to showcase the best the fandom has to offer in these less-known categories. Go broaden your horizons people!

• Finishing the last two of the meme answers. So, pushkin666 can expect to learn about my version of John Winchester and claudia_writes about hustler!Sam. I will post the answers over the next few days.

• Working on mine and razorxrosary’s new anywhere_road Verse. There’s not much there yet, except the Verse synopsis in the community User Info and FAQs but once we start posting fics, I’ll pimp it to high heaven, because it’s the BEST THING EVER OMG. Seriously. Possibly even better than chocolate.

• Writing fic! Really, really. Who knows, something may even get finished! o_O Currently I have five (yes, I counted: five. *facepalm*) Supernatural fics on the go and other smaller things in a variety of fandoms: SGA, House, Primeval (wtf, entangled_now I blame you), also maybe a little bit about the Doctor, Jack and the mysterious Unicorn… uhm, would anyone want to know more about that?

I’m all squeed out now (too much sugar first thing in the morning – mmmmm… pancakes…). I should possibly go write something suitably angsty and sad. Perhaps that SPN fic for the evil!Sam challenge where Dean has gone quietly crazy and lives imprisoned in a hotel room while the world is burning? Yeeeees… *rubs hands gleefully*
