I decided to stop complaing that no one ever makes a trailer for my stories, and made one of my own. Thanks Rach for showing me how to use Movie Maker, and thanks Annette for the episodes  . http://www.folcvideo.com/trailer/LetitSnow.wmv

Loved this!!
And it goes to show you're multi-talented, Yellow Dart.
This is wonderful. Sweet, light-hearted, and fun. And good for you for doing it yourself. If I could, I would, believe me!

Great job!

Yay, that was so fun! Loved the music, loved the clips, loved the traiiler text. I watched the whole thing with a big old smile on my face. (Gee, thanks a lot, now my cheeks hurt. <g>) Delightful, Laura! Makes me want to make trailers for my own stories, too. Kathy

Lovely, Laura! Haven't seen a trailer or video in weeks, and this is the first one I downloaded. You've done a great job and reminded me just how much I love your Snow series (which reminds me, why isn't Snow, Man on the list at the end?). Well done!  Wendy
Just a fly-by! *waves*

Awwwwwww. WAFFy, Laura. Now I have something else to get me in the Christmas mood each year. Delightful, Laura! Makes me want to make trailers for my own stories, too. Go for it, Kathy! And good idea, Laura. With 2,000 plus stories in this fandom, it's going to be a long time before every author is visited. Let's have a trailer blitz! <g> It's such a great way of introducing new readers to some great fic. So why shouldn't authors do their own and save us all some time?

Thank you, everyone, for your wonderful comments. I know it was a little unorthadox for an author to do a trailer for their own story, but I really admit that I love my Let it Snow series better than all of my other stories, and I really wanted to try to make a trailer. After making this trailer, I've even started to want to listen to more of Jessica Simpson's songs -- and even watch Newlyweds. (Oh, I forgot to say that the song I used was her version of 'Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow'). Just responding to a few comments -- sorry for not responding to all of them, but it is really late and I have to get up early in the morning, and I still haven't started studying for the final exam I have to take in the morning to correct my incomplete from last semester . . . Liz: 18 inchest of snow?? YUCK! As romantic as I think snow is, being from Cleveland makes me hate it in all practicality. So I sympathize completely about the woes of 18 inches of snow! Wendy, actually, the reason I didn't include Let it Snow, Man was sort of deliberate. I couldn't make it fit into the way I wanted the scroll to go. It just didn't look right. So I took it out. And then I forgot to rearrange the ending so that it was there too.  Erica, glad it didn't kill you with WAFFy-ness . Thanks again for all the wonderful comments. It makes me think about making another trailer . - Laura
