Am I using my LJ for anything but asking questions this week?

Didn't think so.

Anyhow, tabithajones and I need to know if it's been announced yet which theaters are showing the big LOTR Trilogy Marathon on the 16th of December, and if tickets are buyable yet...

Anyone?

Okay, fine, something other than questions

1. We've changed the submission form thingy over on FictionAlley a bit - you can see my post about it over on fiction_alley. Hope it makes life easier for some and no more difficult for any.

2. The authorlist meme, gacked from flourish
Her list:
Jane Austen
Ursula K. Le Guin
Guy Gavriel Kay
Diana Gabaldon
Virginia Woolf
C.S. Lewis
Diana Wynne Jones
Connie Willis
Dorothy Sayers
Oscar Wilde

My list:
My list (removing everything that was purchased and only read by my husband):
Jane Austen
Guy Gavriel Kay
Diana Wynne Jones
Connie Willis
Dorothy Sayers
Oscar Wilde
Peg Kerr
Neil Gaiman
Peter Lefcourt
Noel Streatfeild

3. Remember the Beta Fish I was fretting about almost 3 weeks ago? It's still alive!

4. I am running my son's school's Scholastic Book Fair, and am the proud custodian of an poster plugging OotP as well as the Scholastic Interviews the Authors video, which includes an interview with JKR. If it's not the same one that she did with Lizo of the BBC, I'm going to transcribe it and put it up on TLC. Ah, the perks of parenthood!

5. In listening to OotP, I have had three brainstorms which will be used in Surfeit of Curses, and one major issue regarding the Black Family Tree, which I posted about here. Man, does that woman need a beta reader. Her timelines are so whacked.
