I"ve thrown my hat into the ring!

[tripperfunster]

I"ve never done a 'commission' before, but I decided to give livelongnmarry a try.

I challenge everyone who has recieved free art over the years to dig deep and donate. There are some great offers on the site, and I certainly believe in the cause!

My offer can be seen here: http://community.livejournal.com/livelongnmarry/44784.html

Oh crap! Thanks for pointing that out. I pm'd the mods about it, because I could not figure out how to edit my tags.

*smooches*

haha, no worries. It was exactly like something I would do. The only reason I noticed was because you inspired me to put up my own auction, and I was using yours as a reference for my tags! I'm really excited about this and I can't wait for the bidding to start :D Are you going to bid on anything, do you think?

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

I dunno, I"m quite tempted!

Did you see the really cute hats with the ears? Too cool!
I'm also tempted to make someone do some Blades of Glory fic for me. Nobody has put it as a tag (except me) but lots of people say they are open for just about anything. :D

How 'bout you?

I'm dirt poor (like everyone else) but I'm definitely going to at least bid on something. Some of my favorite HP authors are whoring auctioning themselves and that's just too tempting.

Speaking of which, why aren't you offering fanfic, too? Your writing is simply lovely!

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Aw, thank you! But no, I could never write under pressure. My fic comes from some mystery place, which I cannot tap.

Art? Meh, I can draw something I don't give a shit about and still make it look okay (although I'd hate to do that a lot) but I don't think I could write a fic that I wasn't invested in.

Generally, the only fics I write are ones that keep floating around in my head, and I finally write them down to shut them the hell up.

Plus, there are like, 1000000 fic writers up for auction. You, and perhaps one other person on the internets have read my fics! :D

You and I are quite rare in the auction, however! Very few artists have signed up. More in the last couple of days, but the ratio is pretty skewed!

It will be interesting (and possibly depressing) to see who (if anyone) bids on me. :D

Oh lordy, I did not put my art up for auction. I do it as a happy but I have nowhere near the talent as you and some of the other hump_day ladies. I offered a fic or a knitted Hogwarts scarf. Woot!

Actually I thought I might bid on one of the HP fanvids. Like Akemi42, I love her Snarry videos. :D

I totally understand about not wanting to write under pressure. However, I think you're wrong about people knowing you write, too! It was actually pretty funny -- the other day I was cleaning out some of my old links, favorite stories from when I first started reading Potter-fic like six months ago, when I came across this really super hot Snupin fic. I was like damn, so I read it again because I remembered having enjoyed it so much.....

And 'lo and behold! It was yours! Made me laugh and smile when I realized. :)

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Oh shit! I actually KNEW that about the scarf, but I guess I just think of you as an aritsts, so that's where my mind went.

That scarf looked great! I honestly cannot knit to save my life. I think it would be a really soothing hobby too, sort of like cross-hatching. I love making all those tiny little mindless scribbles, that eventually turn into art. It amazes me every time.

Knitting though, takes planning and counting, neither of which I am very good at. :D

That is SO COOL about the Snupin fic! That put a big smile on my face, thank you!

And don't discount your art! You always get great comments, every time you've posted on Hump_day. I'm sure there are lots of people who would pay for your art! *pushes you to do an art auction* ;^D
