I'm too exhausted right now (and still sick) to write a full report, but I wanted to say a couple of things, especially as regards fandom and LJ
( Read more... )
er...um...no one had actually read my fanfic, but there was a fanfic reading, which I attended, and heard the fanfic of several others. Some of whom are professionals in the field. I listened to several slash pieces, even, which I've never even read before.
I not only didn't bring any fic (not knowing that fic would even be a topic at such an event), but was too sick with a cold to have done a good reading if I had. LJ names were exchanged, so I expect someone from the workshop will read my fic eventually. :)
Also, there was a very interesting panel given by a writer who has a book coming out in December, and her editor from Tor, about fanfic and how it can be good for your writing.
Yes, I have a whole new approach for the book, now. See, this thing called an outline will help tremendously. :) I'll keep you (and everyone else -- psychopepsquad has also left me the occassional "nudge") updated. ;)

And I'm just going to whisper the words Sunlight and Shadow before fading into the night. Feel better!
