Zoe ,'War Stories'
A place for Buffistas to discuss, beta and otherwise deal and dish on their non-fan fiction projects.
But non-fic is different for reasons unknown to me. Vampire People was sold with the proposal, and then I was given x months to finish it by the editor.
Yep. GCS was sold on the proposal, and I had something like 9 months to finish it once I got the offer.
I really need to write up the proposal for the paranormal romance parody I came up with and send it to my agent. I just need to find some time to do that ...
Jilli, insent x2 from dfisher@dp.
I just read somewhere about someone selling a second person present novel. "You walk to the car and find a milkjug...."
It sounded odd but interesting.
Bright Lights, Big City was the first major instance of that, and caused a lot of stir at the time. It's a lot harder to read, but I think in short pieces it can be sort of interesting.
I wrote 600 words already. for today, I rock.
Anybody interested in beta-ing a short sci-fi story that I co-wrote? My writing partner and I are hoping to submit it to the sci-fi mags, so some feedback would be welcome.
Also, does anyone have any experience with short stories and sci-fi mags?
Wolfram, is it hard sci-fi? Because I'm really not a good judge there.
Wolfram, I'd like to have a look.
Amy, definitely not hard sci-fi. Would you be interested?
dcp, insent. Thanks!
Sure, Wolfram. Just use my profile address.
Wolfram, I've always enjoyed your writing, if you think you want another ear you can send a copy to my profile address.
