Really? That's great. A good interpreter is something to see...it's too bad he didn't make the film...they're so expressive.
The Great Write Way
A place for Buffistas to discuss, beta and otherwise deal and dish on their non-fan fiction projects.
He was so good Annie actually stopped talking to watch him. And then he stopped and looked at her, like, "...and then?" And she blushed and laughed, and the whole audience laughed, and at the end, she ran over and hugged him.
Several times during the thing I got so engrossed in watching him I stopped watching her. It was pretty great. But I guess including him would have detracted from her, and the show was about her, after all.
That reminds me, if anyone would like a copy of Bird by Bird, I'm looking to unload one.
I would like it. Mom gave mine away, I think by accident.ETA, insent, Knut.
Great! Just send me your snail mail (my profile address is fine), and I'll wing it your way.
Cool. An overenthustiastic purge of my collection. I hate it when that happens.
I feel like such a writer, I was going over the V!Giles stuff, came up against the laying/lying verb thing, then glanced at the shelf of writing books and actually pulled one down to use. I've read them all in a general way for info and inspiration, but I'm finally using them as tools.
I must have about a dozen books on writing now. They make me happy.
I'm thinking of calling this Exaltation Remembered
I think it's too long to post here (11,848 words), but comments, either here or in e-mail, are hereby requested of those who have the time and the want.
Deena, it's marvelous! I'm awed, truly. It's very sensual, not just visual but every sense. There's a ruined innocence, a joyous sensuality tainted with the ebbing knowledge of wonders lost, which makes your title very appropriate.
I'm also pissed, because my stupid computer cuts off everything after
"Lili?
"Yes, Eve?"
"Do you still love me?"
and I can't figure out how to read the rest. Help?
Beverly, whitefonted last line:
Lili flashed a fierce grin over her shoulder. "I will until my dying day," and she was gone.
Haven't read it yet (not even the last line that I posted - the advantages of English not being my mother tongue), but bookmarked it for later.
