"They didn't cover this in basic."
Having problems adding meaty elements to your fanwork? Need to discuss the intricacies of krogan courtship to scare the crap out of (or turn on) your muse? Can't remember a specific tidbit from one of the games and you just have to have it? Cast of characters giving you fits?
Got writing resources you'd like to share? Need verb conjugation help? Problems with characterization? Do you have helpful tips on a character's voice or motivation? Do you need crafting supplies and can't find a good supplier? Got an e-bay supplier that sells the most fantastic mohair for your kitbashes?

Need some insight on what Irikah Krios' funeral was like, please =). I remember something about her body being put in the ocean...? Not sure if that's how it went, though.

"My brain has been scrambled like an egg! How do you think I feel?"
Did your muse get a biotic kick to the face? Turian at the helm of the dreadnaught that killed your father? Do you need feedback or encouragement for your fic?
Post your WIP fic snippet in this thread only!
(If you don't have a snippet and only need to rant about how your muse has failed you miserably, do it in this thread. Title it as a rant so the muse can be given its due of push-ups.)
Kiss the dirt, maggots!

This would (hopefully) be the beginning of the team's actual adventures in fighting the Reaper war - which means I need to think of something for them to do other than 'blow everything up'.
But knowing that someone would like to see more is very encouraging. =) Thanks.

-Has unique figures. All (or most of them, at least) are skinless so you can see the musculature. Also has a flash drawing feature (gives you a limited amount of time to draw a figure before moving to the next one).

-Photos of real people in unique poses. Uses nude models but you can select only "decent" models if it bothers you.

-Lots of models. Also uses nudes but you can choose only dressed models (not without entering the archive first, however. May see nude models before filtering). Has other learning tools as well (videos, blogs, etc.).

Have an idea on the edge of your brain that you just don't have time for? Has a rabid plot varren run loose and you can't catch it? Did Grunt stomp on your muse with his dinosaur booties?
Post your idea here and someone will take over for you.
(Feel free to discuss any relevant data here. And keep us updated on the progress. We'd love to know where you take it.)

Reason for giving up: Insufficient writing ability
Characters: Shepard's Daughter
Pairings: Shepard/(Author's choice, although Liara would make the most sense in this context)
The Idea: Shepard's daughter writes a letter to the dad she never got the chance to know.
Possible plot problems: Very open ended. Would like to see multiple takes on it for different people.
(possible) Required research: Optional
Credit required?: Just give me a link to the finished work
