The warm flesh tainted her mouth, coated her throat and she welcomed the release. Welcomed the loss of self as she allowed her darker urges to bubble forth until the creature beneath her paws and teeth had become only so much meat and she pulled away, licked at the blood slicked fur lining her muzzle before she tilted her head back. Human eyes staring up into the darkness above her as she gave voice to the darkness within and bayed at the half full moon.
It’s from the story Beyond this Illusion in a series in which Buffy is a werewolf and I’ve got a soft spot for werewolves and shifters. I love writing from that perspective and figuring out how the merge animal instincts with a human consciousness. I find it all very fascinating and I think this paragraph best encompasses what I was trying to accomplish.

In no particular order:
jedibuttercup - She’s pretty fantastic in everything she attempts and she drags me into fandoms I’d never encountered before just by writing in them. Who knew how adorable ‘The Sorcerer’s Apprentice’ was that good of a movie? Well, she did, but now I adore it!
She’s also fair to all the characters she writes.

I just can’t.

I use outlines to help me plot longer stories. Especially ones that are have time hops in them (IE scenes that take place in the present and the past). I’m relying heavily on outlining with my newest Marvel bunny. It requires a thorough plotting for this storyline so it doesn’t get convoluted. Plus I like the outline because it gives me a better idea of how the story is flowing and it I can cut scenes before I even get them written if they’re just going to slow down the story.
