Requests will be open until August 1. DO NOT LEAVE REQUESTS AS COMMENTS TO THIS PAGE! All requests left on this page will be deleted and disregarded.

Happy requesting!

There's going to be a table over at the Hyatt for Ascendio, the eighth Harry Potter fan event put on by HPEF (we did Infinitus in '10, as well as Azkatraz, Prophecy, Witching Hour and more) - and from Friday through Monday, we'll be doing a few trivia challenges via Twitter.

You can follow us at http://www.twitter.com/HPEF - we've got a bunch of trivia questions we'll be asking over the weekend, and if you know the answer, swing by our table and tell us - the first five people to come by with the correct answer will win a Harry Potter-themed prize or some HPEF swag.

We'll also be taking registrations for Ascendio and while on the website you can only pay with credit cards, at Dragon*Con, you'll be able to use cash if that's your preference.

Come by and say hi! We'll have candy! (While supplies last, and we have a lot of supplies.)

Yule Ball requests will be accepted until tonight at 11:59p.m. Anything after that we're not taking.

PLEASE PEOPLE! What non-'80s songs do you want to hear?

SOUND OFF LIKE YOU MEAN IT!!!

As the w00t girls are DJing this gig, you can get song choices to us in three ways.

Make that four. You can also reply here. :)

Cheers.

Hey there! Is there a group getting together for the HP premiere? I'm wondering if it's going to be at Hollywood 24 and if so, when? Thanks and hugs!

The request line is open, people! This year we're doing things only slightly differently. For the first half of the ball we're focusing on '80s music. If you've got a favorite, fire it our way!!

You ABSOLUTELY NEED THE FOLLOWING:

Song Title:
Artist:

That's all. It's all kinds of simple. Please be aware that we reserve the right not to play songs for whatever reason.

Happy requesting!

REQUESTS CLOSE AUGUST 1st!

After the first hour we'll be working in more modern music but be aware that we'll be '80s heavy pretty much all night. Bring on the neon, hair metal, and spandex, people!!

I know it's way early to whine about not having a handout posted from the con, but I'm impatient! I missed out on the Upcoming Books panel and didn't get a handout, and the www.encounteringenchantment.com and www.bonniekunzel.com websites haven't been updated since 2008 (or I'm navigationally challenged and can't find them). Can anyone scan in the handout so I can start filling out order forms for my local independent bookseller?

Hey ya'll. We've had LOTS of updates to our twitter but here's an update for you lot on LJ.

Friday Podcast

Please right click to download the file onto your computer. :)

More later... when we're not insanely busy!

Hey ya'll we've updated our schedule to include our new guests and the changes that came from them. This is still only a tentative schedule as changes can happen even AT dragon*Con so keep your eyes peeled and read your daily dragon.

See you in 8 DAYS!!!

Yule Ball - Thanks so much to everyone who suggested songs for Yule Ball. We got a TON of requests this year and that makes my job SO much easier. Less work for Mary = a happy Mary. There were some we couldn't use due to time constraints but ya'll have some seriously awesome and crazily diverse taste in music. Thank you for your help.

Book Club - We're reading two books this year that both have sequels. (Shiver by Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins and Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater in case you missed the memo.) We are only discussing these books and not their respective sequels. Please refrain from talking about what comes next as we're trying to keep this a spoiler free zone. ESPECIALLY for Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins as it just came out TODAY!

Thanks!

Okay guys...We're 9 days and counting so if you are planning to march in the parade this year I want to hear from you!

I would like to get some idea of how many ribbons I need to ask for when we register for the parade so if you plan on marching with YA LIT, please either comment on this LJ post, or send me an email at zeta0497@gmail.com, that would be great! See you all soon!

Please remember that if you're planning on wearing a YA costume, it is customary that you march behind the YA Lit banner. You are welcome to bring your own banners if you have a group that is marching together, but it will need to also march behind the YA Lit track banner. NEW THIS YEAR - there is no throwing items into the crowd. The city of Atlanta has actually mandated this. This is not our doing so no matter how small or harmless you think it might be, we don't want anyone to get hurt or in trouble.

Thanks guys!
