Just in case anyone interested in this kind of thing missed it, there's a Temeraire fanart contest. Winners and runners-up will be published in a chapbook, get a story inspired by the picture written by the author, and a free copy of the chapbook. Profits go to the OTW (so here, we assume, is an author who hasn't forgotten her roots? ;)). AU allowed, crazy ideas allowed. Quoth the authoress, I mean, if someone sends me an NC-17 piece of dragon-human porn art, it will have to be a work of staggering genius or my reaction as a judge will be LOL NO, but I don't feel like there's anything I would rule out on principle.
Collaboration and international participation allowed, too. So, hey. Everyone's a winner, and all that?
Now I just need an idea.
In completely unrelated news, it's actually cooled down outside. YESH. Let's see how long that lasts!
In yet different news, the husband got himself a new flashlight yesterday. It calls itself a "self-defense LED flashlight" (don't ask) and has been produced by "SureFire - maker of the world's finest illumination tools". My inner Silmarillion fangirl is snickering madly.
