( Waiting )

Ooh! ghot just sent me the preliminary sketch for the drawing I won in the Live Long and Marry auction, and IT IS FANTASTIC. OH MY GOD. *twirlsquees*

The Live Long and Marry Auction ends at midnight PDT tonight! My offers of fanfictions and menu planning services are at $55 and $26 respectively, and there are lots of other awesome offers over there as well if you haven't bid yet. It's for an awesome cause!

I've made another offer at livelongnmarry. I wanted to do more, but was sitting here going, "What can I do? I can't draw, or sew, or knit very well, and I haven't got any fannish stuff to sell because I'm too attached to all of it. I can cook, but I can't bake..."

And then I realized that, since I plan eight menus a year for my restaurant (one each for dinner and lunch, four times a year) and countless catering menus in between...I could maybe offer some menu planning. I have no idea if it's something people will want to bid on, since it's kind of a random offer, but it's something I'm good at, so...maybe. I kept the initial bid really low, just in case.

If anyone's interested, this offer is here. My original offer for fic (which, omg, there are people bidding!) is here. And there are lots of even better offers, so go check out the comm if you haven't yet!

I seem to have offered fanfiction at livelongnmarry because celandineb is an evil enabler. Seriously, though, as strange as it felt to put a price on my writing, it's an awesome cause.

What is this?
Live Long And Marry is a fandom auction to benefit marriage equality. Bidding begins on July 1, 12:01 AM one minute after midnight Pacific Time, 2008, and closes on July 15, 12:01 AM one minute after midnight Pacific Time, 2008. Please do not bid until bidding opens.

What's the cause?
The auction will raise money for the fight against the California initiative which will legally destroy existing same-sex marriages and ban any further ones. If the initiative passes, it will write discrimination into the state constitution, annull existing marriages, and make Mr. Sulu cry.

How can I help?
You can bid on fanfic, original fic, vids, cookies, memorabilia, critique/betas, and much more! Or you can offer your skills and services as a writer, vidder, baker, knitter, or whatever else you'd like.

I offered 3000 words of Potterslash (my offer is here and there are lots of tempting offers over there! Bidding starts July 1st, so go check out the offers and make plans to bid!

We're not going to talk about how I'm nervous no one's going to bid on me, okay?
