With that I'll pass the challenge to backrose_17. - good luck and hope the muses are with ya!

Small favor

[flipflop-diva.livejournal.com]

Hi everyone!

I have a small favor to ask — I've been participating in this season of The Real LJ Idol (held on Dreamwidth this time) since January (!!) when it started, but somehow I have made it to the finale! The final vote is open now, and I'd love if any of you wanted to stop by and vote for me, or read all the entries, or whatever you have time to do!

(I'm not counting on winning lol, but I'd love at least a few more votes!)

Voting is here, and it is on Dreamwidth, but you can also vote with your LJ accounts.

Thank you all! I appreciate it, and you all, so much ❤️

ETA: Forgot to mention that voting is open until 9pm Eastern time on Sunday (Dec. 11)!

Daily challenge to flipflop_diva

[backrose-17.livejournal.com]

Well I got my first advent fic posted so that is one down and two to go. I also got to work on my two gift fics, one is coming along nicely as which is a surprise given that it is a crossover with a fandom I have never written before and the other I finally know what I am writing(hopefully) my muse keeps changing it's mind. I also started editing some of the stories I had written or started during NaNo so all in all it was a pretty good day given that I woke up with a horrible migraine.

Off to you flipflop_diva I hope you have a great day.
