So I've been having more of the writing meets with my friend, though this time by coincidence, we were joined by a DC comicsverse writer friend and I was also writing my H/D novella instead of original fic. Hehe, it's cute 'cause my friend was totally way more excited than I was when she said she heard book 7 will be released this summer & I said it was actually July 21st :D And I showed her Aja's post with the Borders stickers, and she squealed! Even though she thought the Half-blood Prince was Voldemort (ahahah) and so totally didn't get it when I said Harry had a crush on him :>

Anyway, non-fandom people's pure HP love is so cute. ♥. If totally misinformed :)) She was like, 'it's so great to read such a well-written book. LIKE MARGARET ATWOOD' :)) AHAHA I LOVE MY DOPEY RL FRIENDS ♥. (...yeah, she's the one who wants to write like Mercedes Lackey, hehe.)

Man. I'm sorta... ready, I guess. In a really calm, damn-I-have-a-headache-and-can't-get-too-excited-about-anything ('cause I'm so out of it) sort of way. It sort of feels like... it really is true that book 6 & book 7 are going to be two parts of the same book, and I'm ready to finish the bloody book & also to stop seeing fics about horcrux hunting :> I'm a bit mean that way. ^^; Even though the canon's likely to make H/D 'more difficult', well, welcome to my world, where H/D has been pretty damn difficult post-HBP :> It can't get worse, it can only get more settled, which would be a relief. I've really been both excited and messed up by the developments in HBP-- many mixed feelings, especially as to my own personal flaming writer's ennui the last 2 years.

...And it would rock if I did get my shit together enough to be in England for the con when the book came out :D Oh man. I wanna read at least the first chapter in Trafalgar Square as the sun sets... *daydreams*

Hehe I think it depends on who you're with! My friend is weirdly almost more excited about HP than I am 'cause it's all so fresh & exciting to her. The other person I was with was like, 'weeeelll, I'd read the first 3 books...' (I think this is rather common-- quitting at some point-- I mean, hey, I do it with other multivolume things). At this point of HP popularity, it's almost odder -not- to be excited for any random person you ask. When I wasn't into HP back when GoF was coming out, I definitely thought so, haha.

I didn't mean I'd wait for it at midnight! I'm too sleepy to read something I'd want a fresh head for by then, so even if I did get it at midnight (which I did with HBP), I would read it the next day. The mania of the exact moment the book comes out is sort of fun, but I've done that several times already, and it's sort of gotten a bit old, I guess? Of course, just getting it in London at any time of day would be so awesome I could cry :D Although possibly not awesome enough to go to Kings Cross just because, for instance. That's the sort of cheesy stuff that comes to mind, though :>
