Snowflake Challenge Day 6

In your own space, share a book/song/movie/tv show/fanwork/etc that changed your life. Something that impacted on your consciousness in a way that left its mark on your soul.

Ancient Magic by Headmistress X is the story that inspired me to try writing fanfic.

As a result, I met kellychambliss on FF.net, where gems can be found occasionally, and she convinced me that with my username the Severus Big Bang on LJ was the place to be.

As a result, I met all of you.

So this is the story that turned me into a writer, and that gave me one of the most precious things in my life: knowing all of you.

RITA Awards!

They exist, darlings.

And currently there's a book about a gossip columnist that got a RITA award. Isn't that simply too, too appropriate for words?

It's a mystery story with quite a lot of romance, for we can't be all Spinster Detectives, of course. Some of us have a life.

I haven't read it yet, but it's on offer for just 0.99 dollar for the kindle version, and I just bought it. This offer won't last long - it's usually a 24 hrs thing. (I'm posting this January 7th, 8PM CET, 2PM NYC time).

You'll find the offer here.

I found it through Bookbub, a wonderful tip from redbeargrl. Bookbub sends you a daily email with kindle books that are either free or very cheap.

They don't sell time-turners, more's the pity.

Still.

Have fun, sweeties. And don't complain if you didn't like the book. I'm just handing out the information.

That's my job, after all.
