Dana, have you seen this mary sue archive? It made me think of Shanola's stuff.
Fan Fiction: Writers, Readers, and Enablers
This thread is for fanfic recs, links, and discussion, but not for actual posting of fanfic.
Oh, dear lord. I'll have to send that to her.
I posted a request for fics to BBF this morning, referring to the "Faith/Dawn interaction last night." (No plot details, just that.) I just now remembered how strict their spoiler policies are, and that not everyone in the world has known Faith was coming back for the last 7 months, let alone seen "Dirty Girls."
Am I going to get spanked? Should I apologize preemptively?
Might be a good idea to post a warning, mentioning that there are season 7 spoilers in your previous post.
Big old yelp for HELP over here, please please?
just got off the phone with Roz; she's cooking, I'm baking, am I going to be around on AIM in a cople of hours time?
Me: well, love to, darlin', but I'm not sure what it is.
roz: time to crack that prticular virginity.
So, query: what's AIM and how do I go about being there?
(Be gentle. I'm a virgin. Roz said so....)
Deb, AIM is AOL Instant Messenger, which is real-time talking online. Like what I'm doing at work right now AIFG.
You don't need to be an AOL customer, but you do need to get yourself a (free) AIM account and a piece of software. You can sign up at [link] and get their software (there are better clients out there, but you might as well go simple at first).
Once you're signed in, you can build a list of your friends (I'm sure we'll all mob you with our IDs once you're ready) and type away at them.
That's about as simple as I can make it, but to make up for any confusion I'm glad to answer any questions as you get set up.
AIM is AOL Instant Messaging , which is a way to chat real time online. It's free and you don't have to belong to AOL but you do have to download the program.
You'll have to think of a screen name, most combinations are already taken so you may end up with something weird (I'm AliWench...don't ask).
Go here: [link] to download and then follow the directions.
That didn't hurt at all. Nice people!
On my way.
Crumbs, Deb - prepare to lose hours. I hardly ever dare turn it on, because it's so very, very tempting to just sit and chat in real time nonstop. (I think I talked for nine hours the first time I used it. Which is why I don't use it often. Um.)
In other words - you'll like this.
I waste lots of time on IM. Of course, it's the best way to talk to folks who live in the UK, what with the cost of phone calls and all.
