Fic: Bloody Awful Learning Process

Nov 05, 2014 16:10

I took four linked fics from the sb_fag_ends Halloween challenge and revised them, extending them a little and tying them together to make something that worked as a single piece.

Be warned, though: this means three Bloody Awful poems within a relatively short space.

Rating: PG13 because of Spike's swearing.
Length: 1,322 words.

Thank you.

His taste and talent clearly didn't change a great deal in over 120 years, judging by the poetry slam...

LOL! Oh, poor Spike. I've definitely read (and written!) worse poems. Although maybe not by much...

Poor boy. Judging by the poetry slam his writing didn't improve a great deal over the decades. (He's right about Swinburne, though.) I love writing his dreadful verse!

Thanks for reading.

Oh, thanks for putting it together.
You did such a great job with the poems! And, oh god, I can relate to Spike in this so much... =)

I set myself a rule of never revising the poems, to keep that "just-perpetrated" bloom on them! ;-)

Thanks for reading them again.

Poor Spike. The muse is a harsh mistress!

She is indeed. Keeps him mooning about over love. (See what I did there? *g*)

Thanks for reading.

It takes concentration to write poetry that shoddy!

Thanks for reading.
