Snowflake Challenge Day 8

[alisanne]

Scary challenge is scary. O.o

In your own space, create a love meme for yourself. Let people tell you how amazing and awesome and loveable you really are. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so. Surf the comments and find people to give love to.

So at first I mis-read this and thought I was being asked to say nice things about myself. Yikes.
This is slightly better, I suppose. Still frightening, however.
Anyway, no guts, no glory. Have at it, peeps!

tsk tsk, Alisanne. you are not advertising this very well!
I had to read it twice to get what to do. I want you to edit your post and add a BIG HEADLINE INSIDE THE POST that reads "Alisanne Love Meme"

ahem. that being said, how do I love thee?

Alisanne, you always make me smile. Nobody can find the sweet sunshine in a pairing, in a kiss, in surprise buttsex like you. You may attempt to dismiss your magic as mere fluff, but I propose that you are too demure, dear lady, about the true seductive power of your delectable magic.

No matter how glumpy your day, somewhere, thanks to Alisanne's splendid pervy constancy, there are beautiful wizards who bicker and fondle and cavort, always arriving at sweet sticky harmony. And just because I'm not around commenting so much like my early days in fandom, doesn't mean that you are one of the bright stars in my fannish heaven.

**saunters off, singing "you are my sunshine""

[alisanne]

Sorry it took me so long to acknowledge this fabulous comment, sweetie, but life's been a bit crazy to say the least. *hugs*
Thank you so much for your generous response, though. :)
Although, dude, it was difficult enough to post this as it. Forget the headlines. :P

Heh, I do seem to be particularly able to find fluff anywhere, don't I? I think it's my superpower. ;)
*blushes*
"Sweet, sticky harmony", hm? YAY!

Hi,

I don't know you (yet?) so I can't really describe in detail how wonderful you are. (Though you totally are, I'm sure of it, because I've seen you around in HP fandom and on the journals of mutual friends.)

However, I already know a few really fabulous things about you. I know you're a writer, and people really love your stories. I know you're not giving up easily because I've seen you around in fandom for years now. Also, you're doing this whole Snowflake Challenge thing, which says a lot about you as a person all on its own: that you're creative and passionate and full of enthusiasm, and that you're active and involved in your community and contributing to it and reaching out. In short, you're an awesome person, and I really should get to know you better.

Anyway, I figured that I'd use this love meme to spread positive vibes by sharing encouraging quotes because I believe that all of us have the potential to be amazing and awesome beyond our wildest dreams and worst fears. This is the quote I picked for you:

"It’s important that someone celebrate our existence … People are the only mirror we have to see ourselves in. The domain of all meaning. All virtue, all evil, are contained only in people. There is none in the universe at large. Solitary confinement is a punishment in every human culture."
—Lois McMaster Bujold

♥ Live out loud!

[alisanne]

Aren't you wonderful?! Thank you so much for the words of encouragement.
You know the best thing about this whole thing? Whenever I'm low I now have your (and all these other people's comments) to cheer me up. I am so glad I did this because 1) I met you! 2) that quote is perfect! and 3) you give great quotage! :)

♥
Thank you!

HI!!!!! I don't know you (YET!), but you seem spectacular and Fire Juggler likes you, so you must be a cool kid.

1) Thank you for using a person of color in your icon! It may seem small, but you'd be surprised how many people actually have them.
2) CUPCAAAAAAAAAAAAKES!
3) Thanks for being fabulous. ♥

[alisanne]

Hee! Hello! *hugs*

OMG, I search and search for icons with PoC, so thank you for noticing! :)
Mmm, cupcakes. I think I'm going to have a cupcake party here in my journal at the end of the year. ;)
Thank YOU for being generous and lovely!

[analise010]

As a PoC, this makes me very happy.

[alisanne]

Eeee! As another one, yay hugs!

[purple_cube]

Scary challenge is scary. O.o

Which is why it's awesome that you're taking part - which means you must be an awesome person :)

Our fandoms don't really cross, but you seem like a prolific writer who takes part in fandom challenges - so you're putting yourself out there all the time :) Have a great 2014!

[alisanne]

You, too!
Thanks so much for the encouraging words!
We are all awesome here i think. The world could stand to be more like fandom I think. *nods*

*hugs*

[kass]

Drive-by comment to say: you are awesome! Yay you for doing this challenge!

(Here via snowflake_challenge.)

[alisanne]

Hee! Thank you! :)

And I LOVE your icon. *g*

[sharpiefan]

Random driveby comment from someone else taking part in the Snowflake Challenge. I think this has been the scariest day for everyone. You know what? Means we're all in good company.

I LOVE your icon - so happy and colourful. That's a lovely way to be cheered up.

The secret to happiness is freedom... And the secret to freedom is courage. = Thucydides

[alisanne]

Thank you so much!
This challenge has made me feel very loved.
And what a great quote! *g*

♥

[uniquepov]

I always get excited when I see you've posted new drabbles or fics - I adore your writing and your work never fails to make me smile.

<3

[alisanne]

Aww! *hugs*
Aren't you lovely?

Thanks so much! ♥

[elizabeth_rice]

We don't know each other but I just wanted to say that you are awesome! ♥

(via FSC)

[alisanne]

Thank you, new friend! ♥
And I believe you're pretty awesome yourself. :)

[sjh2009]

We haven't run into each other in fandom as far as I can tell so Hi!
I agree with you, self-pimping is definitely worse than asking for feedback, although that it scary enough in its own right, so well done for taking part, that in itself makes you pretty awesome and amazing :)

*Hugs*

[alisanne]

Hello!
*hugs back*
Thank you for the generous and lovely comments! You really know how to make someone's day. ♥

[fire_juggler]

Oh golly. You have long been one of my favorite authors in HP fandom, especially when I need a pick-me-up. Your fics always warm my heart and soul (Hot Buttered Fluff, indeed). And you were SO SO SO kind to give me permission to podfic one of my faves, and then were so very gracious when I didn't get to it for more than a year (which I will be forever grateful for) /o\.

You are absolutely the bees knees (favorite expression EVER), and I'm happy that I get to see posts from you. They never fail to make me smile :D

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

[alisanne]

*hugs you*
Thank you so much, sweetie! I was just thrilled that anyone wanted to podfic something of mine. It was super generous of you to do it. ♥
Hee! I love 'the bees knees,' too! *g*

You totally rock!

[elmyraemilie]

Scary challenge is indeed bloody scary, but here we are!

::twirls you::

♥!

[alisanne]

Hee! It did seem to work out pretty well. *dances*
*glomps and hugs*
♥

[green]

You seem so incredibly cool.

[alisanne]

You're making me blush. :)
Thank you!

[akamine_chan]

The best part of the Snowflake Challenge is that it never ends!

So at first I mis-read this and thought I was being asked to say nice things about myself.

Oh! That's a perfect challenge for next year! *takes notes*

It's been great seeing your happy icon all over this challenge - thank you for taking the time and reaching out to other people. That totally puts you into the "really awesome" category. <3

[alisanne]

Eeeeek! OMG, that would be a terrifying challenge. Not sure I could manage that. *wibbles*

And thanks so much for running it. It definitely rekindled my waning fandom spirit. ♥
