END OF SCHOOL YEAR GIVEAWAY!
School ends in two weeks for me, so to celebrate the coming of summer, you get a giveaway. Prizes are:
- Thor Hammer 3D Deco Light
- Captain America Shield 3D Deco Light
- The Hunger Games Trilogy
- Hulk and Thor 16 oz Glass Cups
- Hansel & Gretel Blu-Ray/DVD (not out yet, but by the time this ends i’ll be able to send it via amazon.)
- Avengers Blu-Ray/DVD (this one is used because it was my copy, but I got my Phase 1 which also has the movie so I decided to give this one away. Oh and Sam may have been trying to eat the sleeve thingy…)
So I count 6 things, so 6 people get to win one thing.
RULES
- Reblog or Like as many times as you wish.
- Don’t have to be following me, though I must admit I am quite fucking awesome.
- 6 people will win via random selection, first to respond gets first choice and so on and so forth. So if you’re the last one, then you get whatever is left. Have your ask box open please. If I have to bust a mission to find out where your ask link is then I will pick someone else, because the other choice would be to stab you.
- This will end on the 3rd of June, 2013 at 11:59PM US Pacific Time.
I was going to give out a Phase One, however, due to unforeseen crap I have to hold off on that one till Fall. I do apologize. Oh and this is not restricted to the US.
Any Questions, my ask box is open.
Amazon Legitimizes Fan-Fiction for Profit
Amazon Debuts ‘Kindle Worlds,’ Where Your Gossip Girl Fan Fiction Can Earn You Cash Sometimes a writer creates a universe so compelling that others feel the need to join and help flesh out that world with their own tribute fiction. And sometimes you make something crappy like Gossip…What in the hell! Damn, this makes me hella uncomfortable. I’m torn between deleting all my online fanfiction or… hoping that this madness passes. This is so not a good idea.
People would be stealing shit left and right. Hell, they do that now and fanfiction is for free. Let’s not get into the authors who are going to be fucking pissed at this as well they should be because they won’t be getting any of that money based off of their characters.
Lawd.
I’m not here for this at all. I need people to profit from their own creativity, not just jumping off of someone else’s.
the biggest problem with this is that, even if you do decide to sell your fanfic through them, you won’t get much protection. once you publish - according to the details of this program - they own it. they can republish it in an anthology or in another country/language, and you won’t see an additional dime.
furthermore, the owner of the original universe and characters can take your idea and turn it into a film/book/tv show/etc and not have to compensate you at all. it’s typical Amazon bait-and-switch. on the surface, it seems alluring, but you have to read the fine print. the only way property rights’ owners would agree to this is if Amazon promised them a deal they couldn’t refuse. “you’ll get a cut of the profits AND have an endless pool of story ideas that you don’t have to pay for!” the fanfic writer will get screwed. twice.
fanfiction isn’t new. hell, the Star Trek novels are basically authorized fanfiction. at least there, the authors are properly credited and compensated. this sounds like a really, really bad idea.
I know, right. This will not end well. *headdesk*
Jesus, this is terrifying. Also, no porn, so whats the point?

BOLDLY- with blueberry, assam melody, almond oolong and lemon balm accents.
Holy cow, I FINALLY finished his label. I am so sorry guys. I actually had to redraw it twice (same with Boyd’s sadly). BUT NOW IT’S DONE! This one tastes really nice, I’m actually drinking a cup right now! I sent a sample pack to Amber and she tested it for me because she’s an angel (you can read about that here).
And I’m shipping him with my Bones tea, DAMMIT, so if you want a $1 off each tea blend you can buy them together. :)
As always, THANK YOU SO MUCH!
This time I am doing a little something special where the first person who reviews this blend on Adagio gets a free sample of one of my unpublished new teas! I have a lot finished and ready for posting that just need artwork!
So yeah. :D
I bought this and Dammit tonight. And then my husband found out I was buying tea and we bought $50 more of stuff that he wanted.

COFFEE: BEFORE AND AFTER.
I think the best thing about this is the Captain’s Robe that Wil is wearing.
So wait regarding 0718 it says here:
Gatt said “one of my cybernetic augmentations is on the back of my head. The concept is that it’s a miniature version of the ship’s main computer which puts me in direct telepathic connection with the ship’s systems at all times.
SO DOES THAT MEAN THE ENTERPRISE HAS SOMETHING SIMILAR TO AN EDI NOW?! PLEASE LET HIM RETURN ALONG WITH DARWIN AND GET MORE SCREEN TIME I NEED THIS TO HAPPEN!!!
I like this because its close to my name and now I’m going to pretend I’m on the enterprise.
