Excerpts from mail.fanfic: 12-Apr-96 [FanFic] Oops! by Andy

Ooops!

The message I posted to Firehawke about his fanfic was supposed to go to
him privately. Gomen :)

Umm...but doesn't it fit under the aegis of fanfic writing advice?  Just
lump it in with the other stuff that's been posted recently, and we can
put it in the soon-to-be-written FAQ.  8)

Hmm. I think you're right D-Man! :) And feel free to use any of the info for
the FAQ. I'd like to give back some of the things I've learned from the
great minds of this ML and from a "WiseOldOwl" ;)

I just felt silly because that post taken out of context of what Firehawke
had asked for makes me sound like a pompous idiot :P He had asked for BGC
stuff so that's why I mentioned the three fanfics that were listed in the
post. I was not trying to imply that other fanfics do not follow those
guidelines, I
just haven't read any other BGC fanifics enough to know if they do or not. I'm
sure that many of the fanfic authors who post to the FFML are "hard-core
punctuation and structure freaks" as well, (BL and Dragon Kings being two of
them that I've been reading) and my post was never meant to slight them. I
hope this rambling explanation can clear up any misunderstandings that
resulted from my hair-trigger mouse button pressing. I'm glad that Shannon,
Joyce and Jeanne took it the way it was meant and added their great
suggestions and ideas. Maybe my little "oops" was a positive one for a
change<G>
