I love these two fics! especially how they have this intense imagery without actually going into really descriptive prose. idk what that style is called but it's super neat/effective. Also I really love the otherness of that Ollivander especially in contrast with the weirdbecausebad war setting and the weirdbutgood group dynamics AD, SS and McG have.

HP Rec Fest - December 1

@hprecfest

Day 1 Theme: A Favorite Fic Under 5000 words

To open the fest, I give you 2 favorites by the inimitable eldritcher:

All the Wild Summer Was in Her Gaze

Characters: Garrick Ollivander, Minerva McGonagall, Severus Snape

Pairings: Garrick/Minerva

Creator: eldritcher

Rating: M/R

Word Count: 1,500

Summary: Ollivander finds himself in the crosshairs of an inept cupid.

Why You Should Check It Out:

In this fic, the author's evocative language and poetry allusions add layers to the story that enriches the short form immeasurably.

The often hard-to-pull-off second-person POV works so well because of the story's overall tone of surprise and the POV character's journey of learning about himself. Since we, the readers, don't know Ollivander very well, it's a wonderful way to introduce him.

The unexpected friendship between Ollivander and Snape is perfect, showing us two introspective, secretive men with inquisitive minds. And the backstory the author gives is heartbreaking.

The Strange Heart Beating Where It Lies

Pairing: Rosmerta/Severus

Creator: eldritcher

Rating: M/R

Word Count: 1,300

Summary: In which Rosmerta contemplates the nature of swans.

Why You Should Check It Out:

This gorgeous fic slides between the pages of canon and tells us so much about these two characters, one about whom we don't know much and one (we think) we do.

Rosmerta here is very observant, and her musing on her place in the world and Severus's are both heartbreaking and real.

Eldritcher's prose is poetry, and their use of classical and literary allusions add depth to this short fic.

Gearing up for another new painting for Weird, But Good. I know I said I’d stop working on it while I was querying, but I can’t see how it would hurt to get another final color sample in for the future and my portfolio. ☀️🌼🎨 • • • #PandaErica #WeirdButGood #WIP #workinprogress #painting #illustration #kidlitart #watercolor #mom #mommy #child #daughter #kids https://www.instagram.com/p/BzYlBWVHoGs/?igshid=hh90k9k2snte

I finished reading #allthebirdsinthesky by #charliejaneanders and Loved it. It is not your typical sci-fi book, but that made it all the more interesting. It pits science against magic and which one in the end will save the humanity as the Earth seems to be going into self destruct mode. Running parallel to that story line is the one of friendship and love through good times and the hard times. It’s a weird little story, but I couldn’t put it down. Plus it takes place in my home town of San Francisco so that made it all the more fun. #bookstagram #bookgeek #bookworm #booknerd #bookish #weirdbutgood #bibliophile #scififantasybooks #bookaholic #bookaholicsanonymous #bookaddict #bibliotherapy #readersofinstagram #readmorebooks #reading #read #books #quarantinereading #readtoescapereality https://www.instagram.com/p/CAreu5Wgsvh/?igshid=16dtdmbzi2qzu

About to send out my third batch of agent query letters tonight. I’ve been keeping busy working on another freelance picture book as well as trying and yet failing at getting into Pat Cummings’ Children’s Book Boot Camp. Rejection sure makes your skin get thick quicker. Trying to steel myself for more non-responses and keep my mind busy with other creative projects. But I cant help but continue to strategize what I want to make better for Weird, But Good’s dummy. There’s still so much more I could do to make the dummy better, but sometimes you need to tell yourself to give it a rest. If only for right now. Extra fun tidbit, Lyon’s older sister featured in this painting isnnownko longer in the dummy I am querying. Too many characters so she got cut. 😅🤪🤨 • • • #PandaErica #rejection #queryjourney #WeirdButGood #kidlitart #siblings #watercolor #gouache #coloredpencil #livingroom #thickskin #makethecut https://www.instagram.com/p/BzLlLqtn8zC/?igshid=1vpnpg0r4axg7
