connie, that was my reaction, too. Especially since I have-- only quite recently-- written the Dreaded HP Darkfic and Smut for the first time.

I'm sort of hoping that in many years time, I'll be able to look back at fandom_scruples and say "ah, yes, well do I remember that. My first HP fandom scuffle, you know, my dears. They don't make them like that any more." Only, of course, nutcases will still be like that.

I signed up for an AtS challenge and have to write about a character I don't remember a lot about. I don't have the episodes dealing with the character (vague enough?). Does anyone know of a resource site dealing with individual character's timelines or significant events out there anywhere that's sorted by character rather than episode?

Deena, there are writer's guides for a lot of characters that include things like that. They're pretty easy to find through Google.

Most sites will likely be devoted to one or two characters, even the fringe people. It would help if you told us...oh, but it's a secret, because of the challenge? Well, you can e-mail me if you want, and I'll see what I can find.

Deena, ping me with the character, and I can tell you where to get more info.

I had forgotten I have access to the scripts, so I can check those for specifics and I'll google for more possibilities. Thanks for the suggestions, everyone.

Scripts are a god-send. I've got Buffy S6 downloaded so I can see what's happening in the world outside the Scoobies, just so I can pin Career Advancement a wee bit onto canon. Plus it gives me arguments when people say, "But that's a completely unwarranted assumption given what we know!" and I can say, "There's nothing in the scripts that contradicts me, nyah." And, of course, I always say "nyah" when debating plot points.

As long as you keep the discourse on the proper level, babe.(I really have to stop that, don't I?) It makes me a freak how excited I am to drive the crack_van for H:LOTS in Feb. right? But it brings out the Leni Reifenthal(?) in me...influencing tens of people that way. And because the first hit is free, I thought some of you might like this bit of Munch/Kay. Cause I'm all about the Munchenkay. Seriously, the best I read that isn't Valeria's...or you know, mine. Smart, funny, and hot. [link]

Hey erika -- did you get my beta on your story? I never heard back, and i'm worried hotmail sent it astray.

Yeah, I did. Thanks. I meant to write back but got distracted by some shiny object...I guess my response never did make it out of Drafts. You made some important points, though, and the edits are still going. Sorry.
