Editor :
Assitant Editor :

Hey! Can I also do some book reviews please?

I think for the movie reviews and recommend a movie, there should be two doing it, that way people can see it from two different sets of eyes, if that makes sense.

And we're missing two other staff members but if they fail to show, i'll do the movie reviews and horoscopes. *checks her to do list* yup, ive only got my Ettie Skeeter article to write and im done. xD

Movie reviews will be great Stephy what a bout doing recommend a movie as well?

*pokes streamies to update the list*

Etta, I saw in Streams's office, you said that maybe a fanfic review should be done. Can I help?

Sure!!!!!

Do you have any ideas on what you'll chose/which site it will be on?

Hmm i think i'll open some polls for Editor and Assitant Editor

I mostly frequent ff.net, MNFF, and SIYE. I'm thinking we could have categories for each type of fic ship-wise..

Yeah sunds great, just you know, plug the quill as well i know theres not many authors but we do have LOADS of Fics and i am still *does a dance* the most prolific (did i get that right AMY?) author on there heheheheheheehehe

I'll definitely do that! How many fics do you think I should review per edition?

Somewhere between 2 and 4, I think. I've updated the list. Do we have a deadline yet? I work well with deadlines...cuz I am a huge procrastinator and work at the last minute...*sighs at stupid but unchanging self*

Same here Streams, same here *sigh*

Sure, that would be great

Okat lets talk DeadLine.

Say we go to for a xmas release of Dec 18th, we'd have to submit everything by the 14th which gives us two weeks.

Personally i think thats more then enough time *giggles* ive finished all of my stuff except for the Opinated thingy which we are all going to do. And i just need to type up my Ettie Skeeter.

So, 2 weeks DeadLine can we do it? Im jjust thinking of Amy you see, she has to stick it all together in the end.

And June, if you could do 3 fics that would be cool, like one from each site maybe, i still think we should do one from the Quill as well.

That's fine for me Ettie! Hmmm... what about just two from each of the sites including the Quill? And I'm in the middle of an interview with Draco Malfoy... It's getting quite interesting... he he he... XD I don't think he was given enough booktime in the epilogue of DH.

Lol. The deadline sounds fine, thank you for that. I only need about 1/2 hour to do my stuff.



I've already started...I'll just wait till the last 1/2 hour to finish. I'm hopeless. XD

Just popping in to say you're all doing a great job!

And also to say that if you have any finished articles, please send them my way so I can start adding html tags etc.

I won't put them up to the site yet, but just prep them. That way, you can still tell me the order you want each article to go in on the pages.

Thanks!

hmm June i think 2 reviews including the Quill is fine, hehe and i agree with Draco not getting much time in the epilogue, now would you like his wife's name its Etta, that E-T-T-A

And Amy i will send you some of my stuff tomorrow, actually i'll send it all once ive made the relevant changes

i have?

*goes through everything in here*

damn.

I didnt mean to, im just bossy and impatient. lol

Thats souds cool.

And just so you all know, Amy has closed the voting polls. So, who wants to have a party?

haha well, okay.....go do your contributers thingy i did hahaha my pic is sooooo big. lmao.

ow let me think. We need to do something for the Opinions Feature, which we are all doing so, any ideas on a topic?

[color=blue]Im thinking that Ill do my contributers thingy on friday... that way O wont be rushed and it will sound ok... also Im gonna have to make a doll or something because mom wont let me put pics of myself on the internet... which I dont blame her[/coor]

lol, you should just do a doll or an icon or sumit.

thats cool Stephy.

Now, Opinons ideas, come on people!

I have acouple HP related ones.

1. Snape and the way he turned out in the 7th book (i told you ALL he was misunderstood!)

2. Dumbledore being Gay.

3. The actual end of Book 7

4. The Deaths of Hedwig and Dobby (im not the only who balled like a baby when they died)

5. IS Lavender dead/now a Werewolf?


and then theres the stuff outside of HP/HE like the war in Iraq/Afghanstan, this whole go GREEN thing (i dont even begin to pretend i understad it) and other stuff


EDIT: I also think we should do an interview with Kate and Herby on their promotions, esp Herby who has been a prof before, left, came back and is now a HoH, i think it'll be cool, and again with Kate, it'll be great to know what is going through mind right now, since i remember how it feels going from 2nd HoH to 1st, and im sure Streamies can sympathise with the intense craziness that is going from memeber/prefect to a HoH. Any one interested?

Hum. Intense craziness? I don't recall...

OH. But that's how I feel ALL THE TIME. XD

I still think that for the opinions we should open a thread where everyone discusses it, and then someone can combine everyone's replies into an article. I think that'd be fun.

I love this smiley waaay too much.

lmao well then u open the thread Ms Assistant Editor, go Assist me! And send out for some Starbucks i'll have a double choc mocha blueberry muffin and some cheese and shive pringles please. polly is paying.

Pfft. *mumble* evil dictator *mumble*

XD

Okay, I will.

:D thankies!

Oh good song

*grabs husband and dances*

we should have something funny as well, like you know how some magizines have a double spread of embarrasing pics of celebs, we should have somehting like that, except it could be


"Severus Snape was spotted running away from a bottle of Shampoo!"
"Hagrid was arrested today for sittin on a first year"

Ooh lol yeah and we could have people do graphics for them! That could seriously be fun...we need someone to volunteer for that XD

Why not, if amy and sharon agree, have it as a challenge, winner gets say 100 house points and published, 2nd place gets 50 house points, and published the 3rd place gets 30 points and published, everyone who takes part gets 10points....whattya think?

Nice, very nice. That way they do the work for us.

You know what? I've just figured out your supreme talent.

You're really good at delegating work.

lmao John is agreeing with you.

Oh come on, you lot voted me in as Ed, im just doing what all good Ed's do and delegate.

i lobe you streamies,

and ive posted my opinion on global warming thingy, now i am off to spend some time with John, and a quilt and the fire BECAUSE IM COLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

XD I think I like John already.

Yeah I did vote you as editor for that very reason and because I lobe you lots as well. Ooh you go have fun. Sheesh, it's nearly morning over in that side of the world, innit?

*checks watch*

well almost...I'm gonna open a few more opinions things and then I'll go relax too. Too much work in one day is not good for me!

It was 5:50am before i managed to go to bed lol, im so tired and now i have to get ready for work *is drinking her body weight in coffee*

And Streamies, i voted you as Editor and Assistant, because you're brilliant with Huffie and make my life so much easier.

*goes off to see what else is to be done*

Any takers on the HoH interview with Herby *kate hasnt replied* ????

I'll send the questions to Herby now, so if anyone wants to write it up into an article they cannnnnnnnnnnnnnn, just let me know!

EDIT: SORRY I DOUBLE POSTED!!!!!!!!!! but there isnt adelete button for my last post!

Keep on going Stephy.

ive interviewed Kate and Herby, im just waiting for their replies so i can do some magic and turn it into a proper interview.

Right, now, i must run!
