you build it up and then they tear it apart

So, what is it with the CAPSLOCK. I get it. But I don't *get* it.

Also...

linzee's letters to the world are always amusing. Especially when they end with "no love".

Then again,

I am writing. Original Fic. *whoa* That said, to those of you who have written and published, how do you know when it's good? I am finding that I'm having trouble with the rhythm on this piece. With fanfic I just excise the troubling parts and use episode allusions to get me through the rough patches. Maybe that's a cop-out, but there it is. I find that with this, I can't do that. Obviously. Cause these are all shiny new peoples. But, I also find that I am too close to the source material to decide whether or not this is good. I need to call Stellabelle and ask her to give it the once-over. Stellabelle teaches creative writing at NYU and she's writing a novel this summer. I need to call her anyway, she's also buying a house with her sweetie. Last time we talked she was slightly freaked by that.

In the meantime, suggestions and advice are severely welcome.

Wow, I'm excited to read your original stuff, since I like your fic quite a lot. I haven't even tried to write original stuff since high school, and what I did write I ended up shredding into a million pieces. Obviously, I don't have good advice here.

Good luck to you! ((hugs))

Heh! We'll see if I'm ever happy enough with it to let anyone see it. I called Stellabelle and she said to send it along, but I am *seriously* having second thoughts. I just, Do.Not.Like.It.

But I don't know, we'll see.

But, thanks for the luck!! :0
