So, I've signed up for HD Cliche Fests this year and as usual my ideas are overwhelming my actual abilities and I've made three starts with nothing much concrete. However, I like having a deadline and a beta always helps keep me focused.
I've claimed the following cliches:
Cliche Choice #1: Hogwarts professors
Cliche Choice #2: body!swap
Cliche Choice #3: scar!kink
I was considering playing with this a lot and having Pansy be the Potion Master and a few other curve balls but the more I think about it I might use this as permission to totally indulge in the tropes rather than fighting them so it'll be potions for Draco / defence for Harry, students ship it, Pansy and Hermione know before they do, sickly sweet despite the bitter bickering, pining, dodgy exploration of body-swapped bodies, healing sex, etc. Also, healer Pansy with background Pansy/Neville, Luna/Ginny (or Ginny/Blaise, TBC), Ron/Hermione, and Lavender/Parvati. Some details are still in the air because I haven't totally decided on some key plot elements.
If anyone would be interesting in reading as I finish sections and helping me pick what to keep and what to scrap when I inevitably hit a wall of indecision please let me know?
I work in Google Docs and am open to any and all feedback that might improve my work, but for now I just need someone to keep me on track and bounce ideas off. If you're only up to cheer/alpha that's fine too. I'll be aiming to get all plotting and a good start on the first full draft today and next weekend.
