As You Wait for Book Seven....

heidiI've been on sidekick-only for most of the last week, between traveling and playing catch-up and dealing with a dead car battery and the related radio replacement, so I have a stockpile of Things To Pimp related to cons, book seven, contests and challenges!
In no apparent order:
Prophecy 2007
If you're going to the con, consider entering the wizarding talent competition! Form a wizarding rock band, do some magical stand-up comedy, perform some magic tricks - get creative!
Whether you're going or not, if you're an artist, check out the Call for Art that![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
glockgal just announced! Fantasy, magic, whimsical art, crafts - basically, anything that's 2D or 3D, and creative is welcomed in the Prophecy Gallery!
And because of the announcement of the DH release date, they've extended the Call for Papers through the middle of next week. I've presented at Lumos, TWH and Nimbus, and it's been one of the most amazing and dynamic aspects of each con for me. If you have an interest in a topic, lead a round table. If you have expertise in something, present a paper. Either way, you can also organize or offer to be on a panel, too! Remember - cons can only present topics that have people to, er, present them! So why not let it be you?
SpellCast
There's a new episode of SpellCast Readings (formerly SpellCast Creativity) available, featuring Steve reading Asinus ad Lyram by Ylime, and a special episode focused on the upcoming release of Deathly Hallows, featuring George Beahm, author of Fact Fiction & Folklore in Harry Potter, as well as the Muggle's Guide.
You can download both eps via our website or on iTunes, and please vote for SpellCast at PodcastAlley (no relation) if you like the shows!

Oh yes, and perhaps Voldemort chose Harry and not Neville as the Prophecy boy because he was so afraid of Gran Longbottom! :D
