Since the others did it...

What I've learned so far in writing with [livejournal.com profile] goldy_dollar and [livejournal.com profile] shinyopals:
  • I've learned that Opal is the organized one, with plotting, lists, tags and so on. Which is good. Frances and I, on the other hand, like to write scenes and hope something comes together. It could happen!

  • I've learned that deciding to do hurt/comfort is easy until you get to the hurt part. Much trauma in having to hurt a character! *covers eyes*

  • And related - none of us know squat about injuries, and so it's even harder to hurt a character. "What would require surgery?" "A hangnail?" "I think...yes."

  • And I've learned that if you want to write a Christmas fic, you should probably start in September.

Only with much eggnog and bowling for carolers. (What, it's a thing..really, like cow tipping without all the PETA outrage.)

We only publish on leap years and in braille. Our chief editor had a terrible accident whilst pole vaulting leprechauns. Prior to that we were a thriving monthly periodical with sudoku contests and everything.

That's a damn shame.
