The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

I went ahead and annotated one of my fics and posted it on my live journal.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Huh. This meme sounds like, well it sounds like a marvelous opportunity for self-aggrandizement, or a marvelous opportunity for self-flagellation, depending on who tries it out.

I guess I'm pleasantly surprised at the restraint I've seen in the commentaries I have seen thus far.

I don't think I'd know what to say in a commentary. I get nervous enough putting the stuff out there, I don't think I'm ready to say "I put this phrase in because I think Willow watched that show when she was a kid" or "this is purely a piece of beefcake exploitation, but I think that's obvious."

"You can't put a price on the joy of not giving a shit." -Zenkitty

I just posted one. It took me many, many hours to write, and I think the only reason I was brave enough to do it is because I'm completely zotzed on cold medicine and whiskey.

It helps that it was a "five things" story, so it was one of a handful of stories where I actually had something to say beyond, "It seemed like a good idea at the time?"

I hope mine didn't sound too self-aggrandizing. I basically went through and explained what I was thinking as I wrote the story and why I made certain choices.

I love reading other people's commentaries, BTW. It's like watching a CD with the audio commentary.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Speranza posted one for "Kowalski is Burning" and it was absolutely fascinating. It also makes me want to cut off my hands and burn my keyboard, becasue I'm never going to be as good a writer.

Always Anti-fascist!

Because I am fad-girl I'm going to do one for "Sweets To the Sweet" I think.
