Yes, long time, no entry. In fact, this hardly an entry either. Just a desperate attempt to unsubtly pimp my Potter Book Popularity Poll, because I realized I really need the results for my essay on narrative agents/desire. And the essay is already way overdue. *headdesk*

So, in lieu of proper fanart, you get a photo manip. But perhaps you'll find it entertaining nonetheless. :)

Now, if you could answer a short poll about your favourite and least favourite Potter books, I'd be extremely grateful! :) ♥

Spending a lot of energy on finding the perfect playlist for whatever scene I'm working on gave me the idea of compiling a soundtrack for The Image of You. It consists mostly of stuff I listened to while writing but there are also some additional songs that I just felt ... fit nicely. :)

All in all, I'm very pleased with this soundtrack, and will probably have it on repeat for a while. All the Joseph LoDuca pieces are taken from the Brotherhood of the Wolf OST, probably my all-time favourite soundtrack. At the very least, it's the one I listen to most when writing.

The soundtrack follows the events of chapters 1-4, starting out rather mellow and moving through light romantic pieces into more intense material at the end. Sissel's 'Where the Lost Ones Go' is the exception, but it still follows the progression of the story.

I've added 'alternate names' to some songs. If you want to know where everything comes from, original album info is stored in the ID3 tags. I also added 'sampling links' for songs that I've already uploaded previously.

Summary: Harry finally catches up with Draco, and a shocking truth finally catches up with Harry.

Chapter 1: http://www.livejournal.com/community/fanboysbower/953.html#cutid1

A/N: I work as a teacher these days, so I have little time to spend on fanfic. However, I can tell the story if I don't bother too much about editing etc. The (short) chapter below is an example of something written rather quickly and not edited beyond what happens _during_ the writing of draft 0/1. Also, there's a distinct case of 'talking heads syndrome', partly because I'm currently writing a play for one of my English classes (see my Author page if you want to read it).

What I would like to know is: Do you think this is good enough, or should I simply cancel the story? Would you keep reading if this is the kind of material I post?

All comments welcome - from yays and nays to concrit and questions! :)

If you want to keep track of this and other fics (and fanart) by me, just friend this comm. It's only for my fic/art, so you won't be swamped with random/RL posts. ;)

(Btw, if you think this post looks a bit empty, comment-wise, it's because it's a mirror of a previous post at my personal LJ. Because we all need to fill our daily quota of useless information. *laughs*)
