Me, too.
Back to it now. Trying not to look out the window at the sunshine.
This is so nice. Having everyone together for my birthday. Of course, you could smash in all my toes with a hammer and it will still be the bestest Buffy Birthday Bash in a big long while.
Buffy ,'Potential'
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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I know what you see. I use a mirror. I've studied with photographs. This makeup was applied by my own hand and the clothes picked by me alone. This hair is no accident of genetics, and my posture is no coincidence.
I know what you hear. Each word has been carefully chosen, as is the volume. My timbres are designed just for you.
Do not be surprised that you failed to notice none of this was left to chance. The weapon's deftness is practiced and absolute.
By the time you realise I am your death, it will be too late.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
These drabbles are amazing. You all rock.
Ginger: was yours inspired by the song, Long Black Veil? I love that song.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
Yes, Zenkitty. I love the song, but I wondered what the guy who actually went to the gallows thought.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Ginger, you know I have a short story in the Music to Words anthology, based on the song, right?
Damned thing may even come out someday. And erika may have a story in there, as well.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I have about six small paragraphs of the BNF story that was making me so uncomfy, and was wondering if it would be alright to post and get some suggestions on which way to steer. It's the hurty piece. Need tough questions, and to be backed into a corner a little.
Or, I can email so as not to hijack thread from the kickass drabbles.

Allyson, might be better to email, just for copyright reasons; once you've posted on the net, you run into issues.
Send along, please.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Allyson, feel free to e-me. I can tough love you.
Even if I can't type.
