A place for Buffistas to discuss, beta and otherwise deal and dish on their non-fan fiction projects.
Cause it was also in the magazine, until they replaced it with something far inferior, whatever it was.
They replaced it with that time travel thing. I don't remember what it was called. The main characters were named Jenny and Sean, and their time-travel thing was never described as anything other than "the tachyon device." Time Team? Something like that? They met Da Vinci once.
You know, I could really use the brain space storing that information for much more useful purposes.

Oh!! I take it back. I loved that shit.
It was a math show, for elementary school kids, in the mid to late eighties, and maybe early nineties. They'd have music segments, and some other little things, and an ongoing Dragnet parody called Mathnet (with Sergeant Monday) where the detectives would have to use different math skills to solve the crimes. (And it was usually something interesting, like breaking a code, not just arithmetic.)
Speaking of crazy coincidences... You too can download parts of old Mathnet episodes!
George Frankly! Aww. Love him.
Katie, you just got back all your cool cred.
Woo hoo!
Hell, even I loved Mathnet. I didn't believe any of it, mind you, but I adored the writing and the satire.
Anybody want to beta my "Alice Hoffman" story? I'm such a little faker...first David Simon, then Alice Hoffman...Oh, and Philip Roth. Someday I'm gonna be a big, grown-up writer and have a voice of my very own.
In my attempt to fix the pacing problems with Lucy by opening with an extensively rewritten version of the former Ch. 3, I've managed to move the first meeting between the hero and heroine from p. 63 to p. 24.
If nothing else, that has to be an improvement.
Susan, I'd say so.
erika, was out all day. Send, please.
Susan, insent. And yay for sooner hero/heroine meeting.
erika, that's so strange -- I just picked up Alice Hoffman's Blue Diary at the library this week, and I haven't read her in a few years. If it's not too long, I'd be happy to look at it -- I'm a little swamped between work and the fact that we're suddenly moving, but I'd be happy to read it.
