Speaking of which, will you be around tonight? I might be looking for someone to riff with -- even if we do have disparate fandoms.
I should be, although I'll be finishing a Firefly transcription.

Always Anti-fascist!
I know I've learned a lot, from even my sad and embryonic efforts.And they make better writing games than "make up a story about these objects," or something.

I burned my early notebooks of Star Wars fic. I've still got the stories, but I just couldn't bear to look at the first drafts any longer.
If we invite Rio's friend, we might mess up his research. Would this be one of those things best served by a Yahoo Group or something?

Sounds like Rio's friend is less interested in talking to ficcers than he is in finding fic about old shows.

Check this out: a gorgeous story by Shaye. Not a happy one, mind you. But a gorgeously-written one.
And send her email if you like it, do?

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."
That's sitting in my mailbox until I can get to it. I read the first three paragraphs.

And Sophia Jirafe just posted something interesting. Neat, although I'm not sure I buy it, but the writing is good.

That dystopific was certainly interesting-- it was well-written, if in a style I don't generally fall over in palpitations for. And if I squint I buy the Xander-dead backstory.

I vaguely remember something about yahoo groups changing the word expression to the word statement. Is this true and do we know why?

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."
Yes, it's true, and it's some weird programming thing...I want to say Java, but I'm sure ita knows better.
"expression" gets changed to "statement", and anything ending in "eval" gets changed to "review" (i.e., medieval becomes medireview.)
