SJ! We can never have enough fics! I am glad we have such an active and supportive community here, because it means that we can generate so many more wonderful stories!

Thank you, LG, that is great to hear!
FWIW, I wish I could be an artist like you! I am terrible at drawing... I've had traumatic experiences with it too. I just stick to fic writing (which takes so much longer...) and hope that no one gets too upset at my lack of contributions to the artistry department.

You do contribute to the artistry department... just with words

And, TJ, I think that your animations qualify as visual artistry!
Posted by clouddancer on 10-11-2008 at 16:26:
Who needs pictures when you write such beautiful words TJ. You bring everything to life with your words.
And I agree with LB, your animations are a fantastic addition to our visual department.

You have to watch out Ebony, I read GG as GatchGirl not Gogirl.
You might need to find another short form for Gogirl. LOL
Are you the one who starts all these short forms for our names? The reason I am CD.

It was Springie who started calling me TJ. But I am responsible for LB.
I don't know who started CD.

Laughing... there was a time when I considered changing my user name to something more Gatch-like, but I've used "lborgia88" for so many different things now, and I get confused if I have too many log-in names to try to keep track of...
I like "LB"!

Take your time -it's not going anywhere, and I'm currently nowhere even near done the third fic!

Congratus, GoGirl! I have a list of fics to read - but first have to get my other stuff in order.
And talk about Swannies with pokey sticks! Yup, SJ, am doing some planning. I have 2 weeks off over christmas, when I plan to do quite a bit of writing.
Funnily enough, I fell in love with Ste and seemed to loose a lot of writing impetus. No. Am not giving up Ste.
I think we are lucky in this fandom that the writers are all more mature, so we don't see some of the plain bad writing that I've found in the HP fandom (my other big writing effort).
It's funny - in this fandom, there are authors who's stories I dislike, but I like their writing. Is the sign of a very good writr that you can appreciate their talent, but not like a (or several) stories.
:d Of course, we all seem to form a Mutual Admiration Society too!!

I suppose it is Maddy,
I like it thats its not a big fandom like HP. I write for a hobby...
Maddy do you do some form of writing for work? It sounds like you have writing experience outside of fandom.

I have mentioned this before, but I think part of the reason most of the Gatch/BOTP fanfic is good is because we are all so attached to the characters. I think in the bigger/more trendy fandoms, people are into it, but not as personally involved with the main characters. There's a difference in perspective that occurs in those situations.
