Remember last November when I asked for fic recs for total newbies?

It was for an article that Movie Magic Magazine asked me to write, for their PoA issue. The issue just hit newsstands, as you may've seen on TLC or HPANA, and I finally learned which of my fic recs ended up in the article.

I thought they weren't going to use any of the fics that were R-rated - or at least that's what I thought - because they did end up including [livejournal.com profile] copperbadge's Stealing Harry, but I think that it may've been because it went to press before the R-rated chapters came out. Sam, this is one moment where I'm glad you have the kid-friendly chapters ;)

Among the other stories that made it into the article (from among the 50 recs I sent) were:

[livejournal.com profile] viola_dreamwalk's Percy Weasley: Rogue Demon Hunter
[livejournal.com profile] jediboadicea's Empty Frames (and JediBoadicea, I swear I spelled your name right in the submission - I don't know where they transmogrified B into G!)
Anya's Naked Quidditch (does she have an LJ?)
George Pushdragon's Estate of Sirius Black...
[livejournal.com profile] epicyclical's A Lot to Be Upset About
[livejournal.com profile] madhuri's Magizoologist In Training
[livejournal.com profile] ari_o's The Five Steps - and [livejournal.com profile] ari_o, hon, you might want to link from there to the final version, since they neglected to put in the correction of the url)
Everything on Riddikulus by Hyphen (CLS, can you let her know?)
[livejournal.com profile] lissinthecity's Requium
[livejournal.com profile] madlorivoldmort's Paradigm of Uncertainty
[livejournal.com profile] gwendolyngrace's His Majesty's Secret Service
[livejournal.com profile] flourish's Occlumency in Azkaban
Snivellussnape's The Second War
Tangledaria's The SOngless Throat
Misty FLores' The Making of a Modern Love Triangle
[livejournal.com profile] malecrit's The Life to Come
Nomad's Learning Curve
Breed's Beware the Fury of a Patient Man
[livejournal.com profile] ajhall_uk's Queer As Scent


I should have scans of the article up later today...

And even though I'd only included it in my bio, they moved The Kidnapping into the article itself)

Oh my goodness, of all the fics they could have picked, Stealing Harry? *dies laughing*

I'm really glad I've got kid-friendly too, now...*continues to die laughing*

Actually, I picked it ;) but this was in *October* when I think you were up to chapter 3 or something! There was no snogging at that point!

Ah, yes, when it wasn't a twenty-chapter WIP with Teh Snog *nods and grins* I've updated the front page just slightly to reflect the idea of newbies dropping in :) I'm quite flattered you recc'd me, of course! :)

Sam, I also recced your snapefic at http://www.livejournal.com/users/copperbadge/133596.html - you might want to link from the top of that to your memories section with all the links.

I added the link. SQUEE!

No one has been reading that little fic since I put it up at FA. I was sort of hoping someone would niffle it - since it was the first piece of non-parody I put up at FA. But your rec is better than a niffle. :D

Would you consent to post your original, 50-fic list? (Or did I miss it and is it already up somewhere?)

That's wonderful and those choices were good ones. Those authors must've been real proud!

I send them links to a few images, but I think they decided to do "silly" captions to stills from the films instead. I have encouraged them get a story on fanart for the GoF issue in 18 months or so...

I can't now because they have the copyright on it, but I've asked if I can this summer...

I want to get my own copy.

Hey Heidi, its me, Suzanne, how can I get a copy of this? Will I find it at Borders or Barnes and Nobles and when?

Good suggestion! I hadn't even thought of that. I'd forgotten I'd written that snapefic, to be honest :D
