Well, I haven't even looked at the pictures yet and I can tell I'm going to like them just from the drabbles they've inspired. Oh, and I think Deena has been channeling Kara a leetle too much.
Inara: We thought we lost you. Mal: Well, I've been right here.

Where do you think Kara gets all her evil goodness from? She is so very much her mother's daughter.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
Huh. I have apparently sold a novel-length thing.
A lot folks in this thread will be going "WTF?" Especially when they hear that I had utterly forgotten that I had submitted the thing.
Type it. Mail it. Forget it.
I took this advice too literally. I honestly had to go back to early 2005 files and read the thing again, so I could get current with the discussion.
Anyway. The dollars are green. The thing is going to be printed. My actual human name will be on the spine.
All of that is probably good.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Whoa, Gus! That's great!
What's the book about?

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
O, say ... 300 pages.
Badda- boom.
Try the veal.
The book is about what my thinking was, about a year ago, on why men seek women.

Teh sex, of course.
You said novel-length, but is it a novel or just personal philosophy, Gus?

Crap, I'm going to have to get my act together and put together a presentable novel.

It is a novel, SA. It has all that story stuff. It starts out with a dude who cannot differentiate his ass from his elbow. A girl occurs. The dude discovers the difference.
If I ever get a publicist, he or she is going to hate me.

Go for it, connie. All your alternate reality fanfic is just novels with familiar names to them. Write one and slap something other than a Buffyverse name in it.
