That's my girl, large and in-charge. Okay, teensy-weensy and in charge.

The Great Write Way, Act Three: Where's the gun?

A place for Buffistas to discuss, beta and otherwise deal and dish on their non-fan fiction projects.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

There is a Buffista Bookshelf at Powell's linked on the links page, although we don't actually get money from them (someday I promise to look into the affiliate issue for real). I put some Amazon affiliate links to Buffista books in the literary thread a little while back. The problem with Amazon is, you can have a single link to, say, search results, but you can't make a single link to a bunch of stuff you've selected. As far as I know.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I keep giving copies of Vampire People away as gifts. It solves a couple of things--good gift, which is nice. And it also provides some insight into why I spend so much time online, and have such an emotional investment in my invisible friends.

I like the idea for the Buffistas Write! link.

Our wings are not tired.

It would be nice to have an area similar to those left side yellow box areas for Links and Filk. On the page could be links to writer web sites and/or Amazon links to titles. Just thinking on paper here since any page would have to be created and maintained by our beloved stompies.

eta: perhaps even Buffistas!Create because their might be some sculptors and musicians that could be included. Again, just tossing out ideas.

'Til we dance away...

This is probably a dumb question but does it matter to the writers where I buy my books? I bought Vampire People at B & N because I was impatient but is it better to buy through Amazon or someplace else? I'm not meaning our affiliate money, I mean for writerly benefit.

Because books.

Nope, it doesn't matter, Sassy. Nice of you to ask, though!

What, do you guys need me to prime the pump every week?

Double Date

Another Saturday night and she was torn between two beautiful men, both with a brooding intensity in their soulful brown eyes that captured her attention and made time stand still around her. There was so little difference to choose from: not the clothes (they both liked suits), not the hair (a messy shock of brown, neither appeared to look in the mirror much), both guarding their hearts so closely. In their presence, she felt both cherished and protected. But only one made her feel brilliant.

She put down Angel, dropped the Doctor Who DVD in the tray and pushed play.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Back from the awards ceremony for the PNWA Literary Contest. I took second place in my category!

The winner and I happened to be sitting together, and we hit it off and will probably do some beta reading for each other. I also made some good contacts at the after party for the winners.

I don't think I've stopped smiling yet.

not your mom's socks.

Jesse - if there is an affiliate account, I think a page and/ or mini store is possible. Either on amazon or on another page.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Sail, that was perfect!

Congratulations, Susan!
