Spooky Swap-->Partners Posted!
I don't mean just spooky/scary things. I'm using it for a lack of a better word. I started a swap a while back, but everyone was very busy with other swaps, and as there is a lull as swaps are closing...here it is again!
A lot of us are into various and sundry paranormal/supernatural fiction and/or television and/or movies. For example:
*True Blood
*Twilight(not a fan myself, but I won't judge)
*Buffy the Vampire Slayer
*Supernatural(tv show on CW)
*The Mercy Thompson books
*Anita Blake books(also not a fan, but it's your thang)
*Medium
*Ghost Whisperer
Hopefully you get the idea. It could be really fun, and challenging, to come up with craft items for someone else, based on their particular fandom. In the tiny swap, Bethanael and I made each other mini props from shows, movies, and books that we like. You can also do characters(project search dolls, such as the Jareth doll from Labyrinth). I think this could be really fun!! I would say, send out date would be early to mid August, if you must have a concrete date.
Requirements:
You must have done the "Sponsor a newcomer swap" or completed at least one swap.
Copy and paste this survey in your comment, for me and your future partner's use.

I guess we can wait till...maybe middle of the week, or next weekend to post partners? I've never successfully hosted a swap before(started a couple, but they bombed)...not sure what the usual protocol on that is...I would think everyone who would be interested would have joined by then. As it stands, we have an even number, but, yeah, just in case we have stragglers...
And, hey, Krafty Kokatie, as I said, I'm not here to judge your tastes, you aren't the only one on this board who is a Twilight fan! I have so few Supernatural fan friends, it drives me nuts, and in High School I had just a handful of Buffy fan friends, so I would never pick on you for it. I do pick on my sister and best friend for liking it, though XP but that's cuz they don't care!
Eeeeeh, I've had my arm twisted!! Specially now someone else has mentioned Twilight...
Country, and preference of partner's country: UK, but will post anywhere
Favorite book(s), movie(s), and/or TV show(s) in the paranormal/supernatural genre: American Gods, by Neil Gaiman is my fave book ever. I lovelovelove Twilight Saga Stephen King, Douglas Adams... and TV/film? Heroes, Survivors, Supernatural, Transformers, Mona the Vampire (cutest cartoon ever when I was a kid!), Van Helsing, Sunshine, Corpse Bride, Nightmare before Christmas, Shaun of the Dead
