Oh, the birthdays don't stop...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY catsintheattic!!

Happy Birthday to a wonderful LJer! You're so sweet and sincere, and your entries are so thought-provoking. You always have time for a kind word, and you're such a nice person! I love reading your thoughts about writing (and anything else, for that matter)! I'm so happy to have met you. *hugs* I hope your day is great!

And two birthdays I missed...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY pennswoods!!

Happy Birthday to a talented artist! You're such an awesome LJer, and I love the warmth you put into your entries. You're genuine and interesting and I always am happy to see your icon pop up on my flist. I'm so happy to have met you. *hugs* I hope you had a great birthday!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY little_tristan!!

Happy Birthday to a fellow writer! I love our chats and emails. I always look forward to talking to you. I'm always interested in your entries! You have a vivid writing style, and you're not afraid to leave in the gritty details. The Riptide fandom is so lucky to have such a prolific writer! Your fic is full of such profound little epiphanies, and you are the master of emotional angst. I'm always interested to read your stories. Glad I met you! *hugs* I hope you had a wonderful day, full of the things you love best!!

Sue Profile #4

[Recap: Some of you might remember that at one of the HP conventions, gmonkey42 and I put together a Snape and his Mary Sues presentation. In order to put the presentation together, we had to read a bunch of HP fanfics featuring Sues who were paired with Snape. The other night, I was scribbling notes on scrap paper, and realized that the paper in question was from a printout of the spreadsheet that we built to house the data. And then I started laughing at the quote, and I thought that we really should share the profiles because they're just too much fun not to.]

• Name of Sue: "The Lady In Black" Seth Desero


• Eye color: left one "soft, dusky blue", right one "forest green, it's [sic] pupil surrounded by a corona of gold"


• Hair color: red "sanguine"; "long, straight tresses"; "spills all over her shoulders like a river homicide-scene"
