Oh, so that's what they're calling that, nowadays.
Jayne: Yeah, that was some pretty risky sittin' you did there. Wash: That's right, of course, 'cause they wouldn't arrest me if we got boarded, I'm just the pilot. I can always say I was flying the ship by accident.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.
Hee, or Domme... or sometimes just Ma'am.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Lady High Queen of All That Smells Like Really Good Sauces.
Wait, no, that won't do it. Huh. I'll have to think of something.
Just, absolutely nothing elvish or fairyish or hobbitish or that stuff in my designation. I bite their little heads off and theow the empty husks away, those little fantasy creatures.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
I can't remember if it was Jilli or Miracleman who first came up with "Whimsy McDumbname" for describing names such as Ravenmoon Isis Stardancer.

I want to be known as Kills Purple Fuzzy Dinosaurs.

Oooh. Sounds like it could have been either one of them.

When Madrigal asked if I was Astarte Rainbow (from another board, I guess) I actually snorted to myself.
Nope, not me...
I like complexity and contrast, but I'm not big with the oxymoron names, and that is definitely one.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
I started it way back in 2001. I barely touched it at all for months at a time, during the Great Job Search Angst of 2002. It's flawed, it's a first effort, and will need plenty of hard work before it's ready for public consumption. But...
I did it. I wrote a novel. I finished what I started, proved I had it in me, proved I'm not just a quitter, that I can push past my own laziness and fears. I wrote a BOOK.
No force in the 'verse can stop me.

If I only had a brain...
And the trumpets sounded for her on the other side.
BRAVA! GO SUSAN!

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
So happy for you Susan. Can't wait to get it at the local bookstore.
