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

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Good job, man. Way to do the thing.

Congratulations, P-C!

I don't know if I have the creativity in me to write a novel. Writing novel-length fanfic is doable, but then I have the characters already fleshed out as a shortcut. Plot is easy, then.

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

Congratulations, P-C!

Because books.

Any of us women over 40 have a screenplay ready to submit? [link]

Always Anti-fascist!

Not yet. As disappointing as it was to get a rejection in my inbox this morning, I guess it's fair enough. I felt like I sent them flash fiction that they asked for, but looking at it after a few months, it seems that I sent them an *idea* instead. Sigh.

I still like the idea, but maybe fleshing out two women's motivations in under 1,000 words is truly a tall order or at least, I haven't mastered it.

Short fiction is tough. At least it is for me.

I wish I could work on some writing, but it just isn't in the cards right now.

I like short fiction, but that's because I'm lazy and put off writing anything substantial.

I miss the prompts and drabbles we used to do here.

We tried them again and no one came.
