Dancing in and interrupting to announce that I achieved 11 pages of wip today. Go me! Ain't no contest judge gonna hold me down!
Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

A place for Buffistas to discuss, beta and otherwise deal and dish on their non-fan fiction projects.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Dude! I am all about the many pages of the WIP, and in fact, having just done five more, I'm-a back at it.
Go, Susan! You don't need to be takin' that shit off The Man!

Over dinner I was reading over the latest Romantic Times Book Club Magazine and snarking over some groan-inducing titles and plot devices.
DH wants me to write a book about a TV chef who discovers that he's become an accidental bigamist, since his divorce wasn't as final as he thought. The title? Here's One I Laid Earlier.

Bwah! That's a good one, Susan.
Deb, I can confirm on the clonidine, too. It was one of the drugs they gave my son as part of his ADD regimen when he was younger. It took maybe an hour after he took it to put him into a trance. He usually ended up sleeping from it.

41,000 words. 198 pages. This is the scene that's offering to tear me in half and it's pouring like liquid.
Dayum. Riding the tiger.

sent. I'm too shaky, or exalted, or frelled, or something, to dick around with chapter separation. It's Chapter 8.
Must go cry all over Nic for awhile.

Research question of my own. I could try my Regency loop, but Buffistas is a bit more profanity-friendly....
So I've got this scene where Jack, if he were American and living in 2005, would call someone a god-damned motherfucking asshole. How do I say that in 1811 vintage Englishman?
