Kvetching and frothiness of brain notwithstanding (interspersed with a 2.5 hour-long budget meeting and assorted inventory/invoicing chores), I finished my poster summary for Lumos earlier tonight... and then revised and resubmitted it yet again an hour later. (A certain mod who had to put up with my compulsive revisings last winter is probably rolling her eyes in sympathy...)
It's still not an elegant beast, but it'll do -- especially since, at 1750 words, it's less of a summary and more of a blueprint, from which I'll select, develop, and assemble the visual components of the exhibit (I need to find a monocle...).
Curious? Here's an excerpt (contains spoilers for Sayers's Strong Poison and novels beyond):

In other news, I stumbled across www.half-bloodprince.org in the process of pulling this together. (Already known to many of you, perhaps, but I'm still muddling my way through fandom 101...) Oh, the glee! See Peg coo over the index and analysis of Snape's most frequently used words! The compilations of quotes from all of the books! The revelation that "Hogwarts" is "Poudlard" in French! GLEE! (I didn't actually have time to truffle around for more than a handful of minutes, but the summer is young...)
