Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

BALL CAP?!

Er, um...At least it's not a seed cap.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Susan, I only have the one -- and I'm really sad about that. It's sparse out there, but I'm keeping looking. Damn, I've never wanted a Doctor the way I want this one, despite my Baker and Davison teenaged crushes.
Congrats, -t!

Well, Susan, he should have thought ahead, now shouldn't he? Because yeah, hot.

Susan, if Cathy Maxwell can get published, it's only a matter of time until you break through. In fact, if you'd like a boost of the sort I get from *cough*readingFF.net*cough*, I can loan you a book that's got one Cathy Maxwell novella (and one Lynn Keryhoweveryouspellitstan one, but it's really good, so don't read it unless you're in the mood for a good story instead of a booster).
You may still be baffled by your results, but you'll feel SO much better about your writing. Trust me.

Keep me posted. I was wondering the other day how I was going to top my "why Susan writes Regencies" man-paper from the last RWA Christmas party, and I decided this year's theme was going to be "close your eyes and think of England," with all the hottest English actors I could think of. With hot defined by my own taste in these matters, naturally. (Sorry, Hugh Grant. You don't make the man-paper cut.) Anyway, I figure it's never too early to collect images for such a critical project.
(So I'm not the only one with a mad Doctor crush, eh? Because he's not what you'd call conventionally handsome, but OMG hot hot hot teh SEXY. Or something like that.)

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
t, those are OUR exact same washer and dryer and they totally RULE. We got a $100 energy rebate from Burbank, so you should look into that where you are.

Hee. I'm feeling a little better already, because I've fully realized just how many of the negative comments came out of their expectations for the plot and romance arc as described in my synopsis. And their expectations were so out of line with the story as it exists in my head that it made me look at my synopsis again and realize that it SUCKED. A lot. So I rewrote it, sent it to two critique partners who'd seen the previous version, and asked if they thought it was an improvement. Both immediately said, "WOW! Yes. Much, much better."
So, a learning experience, albeit an ego-bruising one. It's not that I'm a poor writer; I just don't quite have the knack of easily whipping out a synopsis yet, and that's a specialized, learnable skill.
