Deb, just so you know, I love Still Life with Devils immensely. I want to read it again. And again.
Well some friends of Buffy played a funny joke and they took her stuff and now she wants us to help get it back from her friends who sleep all day and have no tans.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

I wish someone would buy it, already. It's very much the dark side of the ghostly stuff in "Weaver" et al.
And it's high, way way way high, on my strongest point as a writer, which is characters.

The thing about life is :You can rehearse it all you want,
But nobody else ever sticks to the script. So why bother?
Hello there .. hm i´m kinda new here... lurked here for ages but only recently posted here ..
I write a lot .. from novels to scripts to poems and my dream would be to live from writing which is still just very dreamy i think...
well it would be really cool if someone of you guys could read my stuff and tell me what they think, since i´m still learning and english isnt my mother tongue ..
at the moment i write mostly mystery and sci fi ... some things of my friend and me can be found here
but theres more stuff in my Livejournal ..
anyway would be cool if someone could give me some tips .. Thanks in advance

Because books.
Just typed "THE END" on the book due tomorrow. And it's not even after midnight. And I'm almost sure the whole damn thing doesn't completely suck.
Hey, Kessie! Welcome. Very new here myself.

Go you, AL. Enjoy that Kinko's moment. Well, my instructor used to call it that, because we'd get copies for class and do our "victory lap" then.I'm coming up on 2 years Buffistaness, and it's FG.

erika, the sweetest thing is I don't even have to submit hard copy. Just email off the file tomorrow morning.
The not-so-sweet is, writing up till the deadline means I only did partial editing as I wrote, and these last couple chapters may stink up my editor's inbox. But since the publisher is heavily invested in revisions (and they only gave me eight weeks to write the damn thing), I'm senidng a big honking disclaimer to the same effect, and have made notes here, there and everywhere about stuff I want to polish.
Still...I want a big hot bath made entirely of the words THE END, and I want to soak in it until my shoulders stop aching. :-)
