Your point about "close knit" is well-taken; thanks.
When I write fan-fiction it tends to be along the lines of 'something I want to see in the canon material that I know I never will'. It's wish-fulfillment. When I write my original stuff it's because I can't get it out of my head. YMMV of course.
Does vary, in this case <g>. I wanted to write a Buffy novel so that I could stop thinking about Buffy. It was driving me nuts. Not that that's a great distance, mind -- but it was eating my imagination time. I like to blame it on being pregnant. But I also like to be honest <g>.
I haven't taken any offense but I do know that I have a tendency to talk and answer every comment until, in retrospect, I wish I had shut up. ;-)
Me too! And you also work in a speciality SF store -- a woman entirely after my own heart <g>.
