  5. While it's true, that if no money is involved, there's less likely a chance for copyright infringement to be enforced, the owners of that same song/lyrics/snippet may object to its usage. Copywrite legal fine print always says things about not reproducing any portion of this book/article without express permission. Try writing some fan fiction of Anne Rice's characters (as well as some other well-known authors) on a public forum, even for free, and you may find a cease and desist letter in the mail. It's best to tread carefully and seek out permissions where appropriate, or not use things that aren't of your creation in the first place if you can't be sure.
  6. Oo Oo! **raises hand** I've read this one!
  7. we get local whitefish on vacation in the fish and chips basket style every year. Love it. Long John Silver's can bite me.
  8. My big show is over so now I can start putting aside some writing time again! Even without my new stuff this has been a good week!

    Just Life

    Your life is never boring, Joann.
  10. Nature will outlast us all if we give it the chance. And it might do so anyways, even if we don't.
  11. Big hugs, snuggles and a good stiff... drink.
  12. Another fun and twisted prompt from Joann!
  13. Mix? I think it's a requirement on some chapters! LOL
  14. Whoohoo!!! I'm famous now! LOL Seriously, thank you for the interview, Cia! I'm seriously flattered to be featured!
  15. Intriguing story with an unusual cast with many flaws. Definitely worth the read. Loved it.
  16. There is a third in the works as we speak. I'm working on the first draft and I'm hoping to have something ready to post by the end of the summer. Earlier if my schedule allows.
  17. Happy Birthday!!! We've missed you!!
  18. Thanks, Joann for the great review!
  19. I'm with Sasha on this one. That's a novel waiting to happen that I don't have the time for. LOL
  20. That's really funny, Cole... but I'd get rid of the cats... At least the peeing variety...

    Chapter 4

    Very. Very. Hot.
  22. That really is quite fascinating. We don't hear about many of these researchers/sociologists that supported us before it was fashionable or even possible in polite conversation. Thanks for sharing.
  23. I get the most done in a smaller period of time when I'm on vacation—away from all the chores and responsibilities at home. So I'm a huge advocate of finding a location whenever possible that keeps you from getting sucked into the random crap in our lives. And if you can, turn off the wi-fi! I'm a sucker for web browsing and drifting into chat when I should be writing!
  24. Upgrading words can be easily over done, for sure. It's simply about the idea that the word "very" can sometimes make the descriptor seem less emphasized than intended. "Very happy" is less interesting than saying they're "thrilled" or "ecstatic." I have to admit, a lot of the words in that grid are a little flowery and should be used with caution, if at all.
