Mab's Mad Musings

I want to thank everybody who remembered me this holiday season and I'm sorry this post is so late. I've been waiting for reveals to happen at hd_owlpost before posting, but it seems they are taking some time, so I'll just post about what I received and gave later.

Cards:

Thanks to hikarievandar, lyonessheart, candamira, mayfly_78, chibitoaster, sksdwrld, leemarchais, jad, digthewriter, lokifan, anemonen, groolover, winnett, kitty_fic, saras_girl, writcraft for sending me cards. There's a picture of them below!







groolover sent me a calendar along with her holiday card. It is THE best ever! I've shared it with all my friends that have visited this past month. The agree it's awesome. It is a calendar featuring saras_girl and her lovely wife, dannyfranx in their natural habitat of unusual pets and odds and ends.

And I want to thank all the people who signed up for my holiday card list this year! You helped me break last years number of sent cards! I enjoy shopping for fandom related cards and odds and ends so much and nothing makes me happier than sending them to people who are important to me and will appreciate them as much as I do. I also try to buy them from fandom artists because that's the best.

The lovely saladbats sent me a lovely post owl necklace and card!











If you sent me a card and I missed you on this list, I'm so sorry. Poke me and let me know. I tried really hard to keep my cards together as they arrived, but with holiday mail and all the things that go along with real life business, I know I've been scatterbrained.

Last year I sent 25 cards to fandom friends and this year... dun dun dun... 41!!!

Fanarts:

chibitoaster finished an illustration for my fic Where Your Treasure Lies and it's now updated with the other art she did for it and I'm over the moon by how beautiful they both are.







Also I want to thank nherizu for doing fanart from my ficlet Under Her Skin as a pay-it-forward gift. The art is in the fic and links to her full size post on Ao3. Thank you!!! I love it, bb!

I spent a lovely New Year's Eve with my dear friend Lacey and her fiancée, Sierra. dawnlett and I met her at 2013 LeakCon and snatched her up and adopted her. I am very much looking forward to this summer when I visit all the lovely people at hp_uk_meetup.







Okie Dokie! Thanks everybody for being an awesome community. The Harry Potter fandom is still so strong and through it I've made some lifelong friends. I know I can count on many more years of making future friends through it too and that is just AWESOME!

... I'll probably post my 2014 year-in-review after the harrybang goes live. I seem to have created a hell of a lot more words and hours of podfic than I realized, now that I've compiled it all. :P

Catch you all later! It's back to proofreading for me!

Read A Study in Compromise on Ao3

winnett just posted a lovely spot of HD porn as a gift fic for me! It's hot and filthy, angsty, but with a huge amount of under the surface sweetness...

Stop and have a read if you have a minute. It's a quickie and I loved it.
