so, like stuff?

This was going to be a poll, but then I realized that there's only one story that I wanted to do this with. So:

Do you think I should remix Family Hour to fit with Dawning Light?

Cuz dude, it would rock so hard.

Mostly, I wanted to make a poll, as it's been so long. I figured out that what I really want is interaction. So, here's your challenge:

Ask me any question regarding any fic. I will answer.

*checks watch* go!

Yes! Of course you should! You must! That would, indeed, rock, It would rock like Metallicar.
Any question? Hm. If you want to ramble for a few pages about your views on Teeny!Dawn's psyche, that would be cool. Any and all news about Inevitable is always welcome. Oh, and do you think you'll be doing any of those outtakes/POV switches from one of your longer fics (Inevitable, Dawning Light, Balancing Act) anytime soon? I love those. They're like potato chips, can't read just one.
And I guess I'll just take this opportunity to say again how much I enjoy your writing. I know it's a little weird to spend so much of my time pondering the work of a Canadian ficcer (much more common than the more widely known Yellow-bellied Sapsucker)but I do spend a largish chunk of my day thinking about your fics. And just... thank you.

Hrm, lesse. I'll spare you the pages on mini!Dawn, but I'll say this: she's a good kid, and after chapter 6, Anita's not sure she can take care of such an innocent little life. What about all those dangerous things that want to kill Anita? What happens if they go after Dawn? How can Anita live with herself if that happens?

Yes, I give this a lot of thought.

Outtakes: I plan to do several for Dawning Light. There will be a break in Dawning Light (timewise in the 'verse, not in writing) that will require a massive outtake so I can intro a new character. It's not the normal way to deal with stories, but it needs a different POV and I decided a while ago to make Dawning Light strictly Dawn POV.

Balancing Act has the benefit of having 2 POVs, so I don't really need any outtakes.

As for Inevitable... There is a sequel in the works, dealing with the issues after the end of the story, so no real outtakes planned at this point.

Yay to enjoying my writing! Frankly, the best part of writing is talking about my creations with people. It's all about the interactions, to see what works and what doesn't, and all that jazz. What's interesting is seeing what registers. Sometimes, when writing, there are things I think will be commented upon, but people pick up on other areas entierly. It's nothing I can predict.

What I mean is, art doesn't exist in a vacuum, and frankly needs to be part of this interaction. (Did I just call myself an artist? Blame the merlot and the wanky fanvids I'm watching.)

And thank *you* for reading.
