Lightning Bolt

I've come to an epiphany about my writing and how I feel about my place in the world of bandfic.

I write light and fluffy for the most part. Which is fine! Right?

But... I'm like the comedic actor who longs for the respect that his dramatic actor brothers get.

(Good Lord, I'm Eddie Murphy and I want to be Denzel Washington! *LOL*) Hey, maybe I can develop into Tom Hanks?

Anyway, it was a pivotal moment for me to recognise this in myself.

And I have high hopes for my Biffno work. *crosses fingers*

Strange, I've never seen your work as "light and fluffy." It has comedic elements in it, to be sure, but nothing I'd describe as "fluffy." The terms I usually think of are "sweet," and then "angsty" [for when there's no happy ending in sight]. Sometimes it's a bit sentimental, but never really "fluffy."

Just so you know. :)

"Angsty"??? Oh, God luv ya, Rick!

I'll certainly buy sentimental, 'cause I'm that type of gal. And sweet? Well okay. *grin* There are worse things, lots of worse things.

And just so you know... in Ev's world, there's always a happy ending somewhere - even if it's in a story I haven't written yet or just an extrapolation in the back of my mind. *chuckling* Pollyanna, remember? *grin*
