Harry Potter Appreciation Society 12 years, 4 months agoI’m still in denial about the end being pretty much nigh in just over a week. GOD. I’ve got tickets for a 9pm showing of Deathly Hallows pt.1 on the 14th and then straight after that it’s the 12:01am showing of pt.2 which I’ll probably just weep quietly throughout before erupting at the end.
HOWEVER, this ‘doom and gloom’ feeling has been a…[Read more]

Harry Potter Appreciation Society 12 years, 4 months agoLooking at the Pottermore website gives me heart palpitations.

The leaked pics on Mugglenet make it look like some giant Harry Potter MMPORG. I can’t wait. J.K. Rowling even personally designed the Sorting Hat test and had people she knew take it so it would fit in with her idea of it! And if you get somewhere other than Gryffindor you find out stuff about your house that wasn’t in the books…. SO EXCITED.

Science Fictional 12 years, 4 months agoFor some reason groups don’t update in the ’activity’ area it seems, unless you make entirely new posts instead of replies. We’re updating though, and people should check out the links that Dina and I are posting!

Harry Potter Appreciation Society 12 years, 4 months agoAny HP roleplayers here?
-
Oh man, I used to roleplay in high school. Haven’t done in years though. It was fun, although I was always very slow at it so I never got very far.
-
I’m on a roleplaying group on Gaia (yeah, judge me) and it’s really fun – especially if your characters are Slytherins. Since it basically gives you an excuse to be a major asshole to everybody else.

POTTERMORE.COMThoughts/feelings?!

Well, I wasn’t too wide of the mark with my ‘shiny new interactive online Harry P world!! We were all gathered around the comp at work at midday in eager anticipation!
Thoughts/feelings – pretty intrigued! I wonder how the first ‘lucky ones’ get to help put the final touches to the site? Also still a bit confused as to how much interaction we…[Read more] -
Yeah the leaked pics on Leaky Cauldron make it look like a Harry Potter MMPORG. I am so excited. Anyone else submitted their e-mail to be one of the early people?
-
I know! I am really excited as well. I definitely submitted my e-mail address.
Also, I have been hearing that the 8th movie is over 4 hours long?! And that there is going to be an intermission? This could be complete codswallop, but a few people have mentioned this to me separately.

Science Fictional 12 years, 4 months agoSince the internet is magical and made of awesome, I think we should all link stories that are available online! There used to be a GREAT short story collection on the SciFi channel’s website, back before they were Syfy, but it’s not up these days. There are still lots of options though! I’ll post some stuff, and you guys should post stuff…[Read more]

This is one of my favorite short stories of all time – and it was written in 1909! http://archive.ncsa.illinois.edu/prajlich/forster.html (Also, E.M. Forster was a gay man – his novel Maurice, which was about being gay in early 20th century England, wasn’t published until after his death.) It predicts the Internet!
Then there’s Charles Stross’s…[Read more]

I love Charles Stross, and Accelerando! Have you read The Atrocity Archives? Sooo good! I don’t want to give it away if you haven’t read it, but it’s a Lovecraftian horror/sf thing. For some reason the first one you linked won’t work, do you have another source for it?
-
Hmm, their server must have gone down! Here is another source (you have to download it instead of reading in the browser, but they have .pdfs) http://www.manybooks.net/titles/forstereother07machine_stops.html

I really enjoyed this! It’s pretty amazing how prescient it is.

Oh, and how could I forget Clarkesworld?! http://clarkesworldmagazine.com/ New stories monthly! And there’s the Baen free library: http://www.baen.com/library/ (mostly tend towards military SF which isn’t really my bag, but others might be interested!)
-
Yes! I love Clarkesworld! The newer link to that story works, I’ll check it out today. Here are some other links to sites with a bunch of SF stories:

http://freesfonline.de/index.html
And this isn’t stuff you can read, but here is an awesome awesome SF radio series from the 1950’s that you can listen to…[Read more]-
Also, I want to focus on giving people specific recommendations, so I’ll try to think of some really good ones from those sites, otherwise I feel like they might be a little overwhelming.
