I just love seeing all these new stories popping up and updates to some of my favorites. I hope everyone is getting a much needed renewed sense faith in our ship and also in themselves!

Annie and Marie, thanks! I have been to Melbourne and adore Australia, Canada is non my list to visit. Now I see there are more stories to devour. You all are the best!!

I agree, LeeMac. I was going to suggest if Buttercup didn't want to go up to Canada, she was welcome here in Melbourne, but yesterday REALLY wasn't a good day to offer :-( You authors completely rock. Love y'all.

To all the lovely authors here. I don't say it enough. Spend way too much time lurking and not commenting on the wonderful work here, you are fantastic. With events here in Australia yesterday you've kept me company, distracted me when I couldn't immediately contact people. Thank you.

Shoutout to new authors. Don't get discouraged with lack of reviews/comments/likes/PMs etc. I know I'm WAYYYYYYYY behind on reading anything other than my own fic (for writing purposes) or a regulation book for work. :/

Buttercup- If the fics don't make it better, you can always come to Canada lol

I will be spending my day here instead of crying in front of my tv. Thank you, dear writers, for providing an escape when I truly need it.

Trogdor19- Thanks......now I'm stuck looking at Norman instead of writing *1st world problems* But really I went "old school"and hand wrote out ideas/outlines. Now to turn it into words on the computer.

Marie1063 I hate writers' block. I usually go back over what I've already written in hopes of sparking something or try watching some episodes of the season you're story takes place in. Or could also try brainstorming with someone.

It was allllllllll over after that. lol I'm so very happy and grateful I grew up in the 90s when fanfic was just starting out with the internet and archives etc. Love it.

Just seeing everyone's responses after mine regarding different ways of writing stories/editing. I guess part of my problem is that my brain is going faster than my fingers can keep up when I type so if I were to try handwriting it... lol I used to do that...back in the 90s before I had a desktop.

I do really like reading a copy on a Kindle or printed out. I could never re-type. My second completed novel was all written on paper bc I didn't have electricity at the time and I have NEVER managed to transcribe the whole thing. So sad.

If I did the re-typing thing I'd lose the will to live and never publish anything! :D I do think printing out a copy and reading that DOES make a big difference when editing though.

I'm a complete savage! I usually write my first draft out by pen with old fashion pen and paper. I then type it out, it helps me considerably with establishing the right flow and making sure I don't repeat myself, etc. Not everyone's cup of tea but I love writing things out!
