Which one, erika? MouthMag?
Mal: Okay. She won't be winning any beauty contests anytime soon. But she is solid. Ship like this, be with ya 'til the day you die. Zoe: 'Cause it's a deathtrap.
'Out Of Gas'
The Great Write Way
A place for Buffistas to discuss, beta and otherwise deal and dish on their non-fan fiction projects.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Always Anti-fascist!
Yep. Of course, it's an Ehrenreich reprint, but go team lefty cred. They owe me some copies, though.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Go, erika!
And AmyLiz, yes, I can't think of any actual concrete examples right now, but I have experienced what you mentioned. It's wonderful when that happens.

You fucking RULE, woman!
I still think you should query magazines like BUST and Bitch and maybe Ms., because the topic of owning your body is so salient to all women, and your perspective on it is just beautiful.

Because books.
Clapping wildly for erika...
Bravo!

Seconding Teppy, erika. See me nodding wildly?

Yeah, I think I should too. I got a million of 'em, as far as that goes. You know what I forgot? A bio. That was dumb, huh?

Okay--see there, what happened there? I was going to post "See me nodding madly?" and had just read AmyLiz's "clapping wildly..." And what I read went down on the page.
It's how I'll fasten on a "word of the day" when I'm writing. I go back later and find the same word five or six times in three or four pages...that's how I can tell all those pages were written in the same session.

The status is NOT quo.
Woot Erika!!!
Also, Amy and Deb, I'm sorry if I came across sounding defensive. I was mostly joking and didn't convey it well.
I will look for betas eventually, but that's a long way off, I think! Hard to beta just the very first few chapters of a book. I'm more at the "tell me it's pretty!" phase right now. ;-)
Thanks..I will definitely take Astarte and others up on the offer later.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Yay, erika!
Thirding Teppy's suggestion.
