Oh, yes. That's a wonderful one. Very much a reminder of days past, Halloween parties at 17. Fun!
The Great Write Way, Chapter Two: Twice upon a time...
A place for Buffistas to discuss, beta and otherwise deal and dish on their non-fan fiction projects.
Thanks, ma'am! Just channeling my inner teen today, I suppose.
I obviously had no social life as a teenager, because I never heard of this closet game till a couple of years ago.
I'd never heard of it until today, but at seventeen, I was, er, doing other things.
Seven Minutes in Heaven, baby!
And we were, uh, a lot younger than seventeen when we were playing it...
I was about to say that, AmyLiz. I don't think I played after 12 or 13.
I was barely sentient at age 12, much less thinking of anything to do with boys.
I knew about it, but never played it, being sort of a pseudo-outcast kid until very late in high school.
(Which, just to be clear, I've gotten over--it just means I identify with Early Willow an awful lot. Now that I'm in my mid-30's, I'm working on getting over my 20's.)
Anyone feel like beta-ing my column for Romancing the Blog next week? I'm having a harder and harder time coming up with ideas, since I don't read romance as extensively as some of our readers (I have a few favorite authors, and story types, and I tend to stick to them), and I don't know if what I came up with makes any sense or not.
I can post it here, if anyone's interested. It's under a thousand words.
I can look at it after I get back from the errands I'm about to go run. Posting here or emailing to profile addy are both good.
