ATTF: New Mod & Friending Meme

[inkvoices]

The hawk-eyed among you may have noticed that we've added findthesea to all the modly contact information on the comm. We've now increased the mod team to five people to keep up with you lovely lot! So warm, best bar welcome to findthesea!

We're also seeing new faces and returning faces in the bar following Age of Ultron, so welcome and welcome back!

And this all seems like a good time for a getting-to-know you, friending style, All The Things Friday. So copy and paste the following into a comment, grab yourself a drink from the bar, and let’s have some fun!

<b>MCU, comics, or all the things?</b> <b>How many times have you seen Age of Ultron (so far)?</b> <b>Camping out at the farm, by that river in Egypt, in a world of AUs anyway, or another camp all together?</b> <b>Give us 3 sentences or a teaser of something creative, fic or otherwise, that you’re working on:</b> <b>Rec something (fic, vid, art, graphics, meta, anything):</b> <b>What things do you love to see in fics/creative works, what’re a few of your favourite things?</b> <b>If someone were to win the lottery and we had a community con (in Budapest, of course), suggest a panel, activity, event etc. you would like there to be:</b> <b>Any other fandoms:</b> <b>The last book you read/film you watched/song you listened to:</b> <b>What should a new friend know about you/your LJ and/or what are you looking for in an LJ friend?</b> <b>Anything extra to add?</b>

Things to remember:
1) Always label NSFW (Not Safe For Work) stuff in the title and post under a cut.
2) Fic and artwork needs to have a rating and warnings (or you can say that you’ve chosen not to use warnings).
3) For people with annoying internet connections, say in the title if a comment is graphic/images/gif-heavy and post picspams under a cut.
4) Have a damn good time! (Because if that’s not happening then this post has clearly failed.)

If you haven’t already read the rules and our post-AOU message please do :)

It is...KIND OF OUT??? It won't officially be out until October. I read it awhile ago because job stuff, and at this week's NYC's BookCon, the publishing group released a full uncorrected proof of the book (like what we would get at work, that publishers send for review before they publish it for the mass market.) I can tell you anything and everything though, if you really want. :) It's SO SO SO SO good.

Shiny! I recognised the author and was tempted. Hearing that it's good; hell yes, book please :D

Honestly, I will tell you that the best part of the book is that it's NATASHA. There's a few things you'll recognize like her relationship with Coulson and some other comic/MCU stuff but for the most part it's a really original story that focuses on Natasha and a friendship with a young girl that really defines her past, and makes her think about a lot of things that we've always wanted to see that don't get focused on. So in other words, really not a lot of emphasis on relationships with ANYONE if you're looking for like, rabid Clint/Nat stuff (or are worried about Nat and other people.) Margaret does a wonderful job at really weaving a story that she knows fans will love, and I trust her and back her 100%. I mean, I know this is YA and I am far from YA but I've read it over and over again because I'm that in love with it.

That sounds up my street :D I was hoping, since it was YA, that it would be a Natasha self-discovery and coming into her own type novel. Added to wish list!
