Boy, I sound pompous, don't I?

But there are some corrections that have to be made:
idea further (see topics 3 and 7).

Should be topics 4 and 10.

Future Topics
Topic 3:  Seven Years I Wandered... (story length)
Topic 4:  Brainstorming, Barnstorming, One Of Those Stormings.... (plot development)
Topic 5:  Plot vs. Character (the eternal debate)
Topic 6:  The Consumption of Lemons (sex scenes not included)
Topic 7:  The Power of the Dark Side (tone)
Topic 8:  I Slept Through High School English (form, basic english)
Topic 9:  Pass The Ketchup (the extras you include)
Topic 10:  Where There Was No Path (storyboarding)
Topic 11:  The Little Engine That Could (writing the thing)
Topic 12:  Self-Editing For Fun And Profit 
Topic 13:  What do YOU know?  (outside commentary or lack of same)

Please comment... when I first wrote about what makes a good fanfic I didn't 
get much comment.  I don't know how far I'll go before the writer's block 
disappears, so comments on future topics is especially welcome.
