Buffy ,'End of Days'
A place for Buffistas to discuss, beta and otherwise deal and dish on their non-fan fiction projects.
That's nicely done, Wolfram. Now I want to know what happens next.
That's what's been so much fun, and so interesting, about Sail doing her drabbles around the girl and the penguin cookie jar. It's like looking at a photograph album--you only get glimpses, which seem to tell a life story.
Yeah, it's a really wonderful medium. It's a great exercise for me because it refines my lyric-writing quite a bit. I tend to sell short lyrics because I feel like there's so little that can be said, but a drabble is even shorter, so I have no excuse not to pack lyrics to their full capacity.
Plus, I just like the drabbles, because there's no intimidation factor. 100 words? Why sure, I can do that. And then of course it's much harder than I imagined, but there I am, writing, and it's off to the races.
erika - Just letting you know I haven't forgotten you and I am betaing your stuff. Just been busy.
Oh, well, hurry... don't wanna disappoint my fan. It's okay...really need to temper my feedback junkie ways.
I'm looking for a beta reader or two who's willing to take a look at my WIP. It's still rough and 150-200 pages from being finished (it's around 300 pages now), so I'm looking for big picture stuff--i.e. do the characters and story pretty much work, and if not, what might make them work better.
Given the market I'm targeting, I'm looking for a beta who enjoys military historicals and/or historical fantasy, just to make sure I'm hitting that Bernard Cornwell-Patrick O'Brian-Naomi Novik sweet spot.
The fences prompt is now closed.
The new prompt is medium.
Susan, the email link in your profile doesn't seem to be working...
I just fixed it. It should be susansw AT gmail DOT com
Insent, CaBil.
Next thread title, can we have "The Great Write Way, Act Four: Where's the gin?", because that's what I've been reading in Message Center for a while now.
And in real life.
