Well...glad I could amuse. Although, quite sure that for me, negative feedback should do the trick. Unless I'm more of a glutton for punishment than I'm aware of.

Also, if you're okay with posting things in public, Buffista Fic is our workshop thread, and it's really the best thing since sliced bread. I love it. It's made me a tolerable hack.

With my first try at this, not so sure about it going public yet. I can take negative criticism from one person. Via e-mail.
And why hurt so many (if that turns out to be the case) when you can mentally scar just one poor soul.

Plei, insent.

This hasn't worked on me yet. I mean, sure, it stings like a mofo. But, you know, on my good days, I get giggle out of people damning me with faint praise. (It makes me want to write bad and wrong things to see if I can get a full-out damnation!)

I keep thinking, one of these days I'ma put down this keyboard and back away from fandom. But then I turn around and get distracted by the shiny.

I did that! Victor told me to never, ever, ever do that again.

Ah, bliss! (Willow/Snyder non-con PWP S&M, FWIW.)

Nicole, insent, but in case my email acts up, it's not bad at all.

I like.

And more in a later email when I return from PDX.

Plei, got and returned.

Also? Just subscribed to Buffy Fic. Not posting yet, just reading.

Quick virus, she is. Symptoms are multiplying.

See, the problem with you writing the bad and wrong things is that you write so well you make us LIKE it.

And then our heads explode.

I love you very, very much Plei. But I stand by it. (:

Which is exactly why she must only use her powers for good. Mostly.

I've got my head into this Vecchio story. And I'm not that good with a Vecchio voice. It was just supposed to be this quick thing for the weekly ds Flashfiction, but I kept writing and it turned on me. I have to watch more of S2 episodes that I have and in more detail to get his personality.

I like my idea and I like some of my phrases but I'm not happy with the way I'm telling the story.

I need to get some information on Las Vegas and at least a little bit better idea of what the guy Vecchio is pretending to be might do. Anyone have any ideas where I could find some information?

Would Casino, the movie, be useful for getting inspiration? Also Donnie Brasco as well. This is about the extent of my own knowledge in these areas. :-) Remember that DS takes place in Magic Realism land, where half the crime in Chicago is mob-related, all Canadians are polite, et cetera et cetera.
