James, your novel's late. Any new date?

[Bex Calo]

would any of you continue to write fan fiction in the near future (in particular sally as i have read every one of your fan fics on your sg1 page and i love them all particularly being a sam/jack shipper. )

Actually, I was gonna ask you...

Well, no. Not because I'm suddenly too good for fanfic, btw (perish that idea!) but because a)I don't have a show that gives me the itch and b)I have a packed slate of professional writing commitments that barely leaves me time to breathe, let alone think of writing fic.

I haven't been involved in that world, so the question's probably not directed at me, but I don't plan to wander in. I got my feet wet with the Atlantis characters by writing a couple of short vignettes, but those were more of a training aid than anything else -- definitely not for public consumption. And a few snarky lines from those stories ended up making their way into our novels, so it'd be disingenuous to double-dip.

Woo hoo! And a wootie toot toot to boot!

Go you.

'Fraid no I simply haven't got the time. Writing-wise I'm a slow-coach anyway, and I can't do that incredibly handy side-by-side projects thing--I get confused --so I really have to concentrate on the professional stuff, else I'd never get anything done.

... immensely pleased to have completed her flight review, so she's legal to fly for two more years ...

Yay!!! Well done!

Are you allowed to take passengers? ::looks especially cute::

As long as you trust me ... and, as Maverick famously said in Top Gun, "If the U.S. government trusts me, don't you think you could?" <snicker>

'Fraid you're a bit out of my range, though -- the Tiger holds 52 gallons of fuel, burns about ten gallons an hour, and makes around 120 knots of ground speed ... so it'd probably take me a couple of days and a half-dozen fuel stops just to get to you. On the plus side, at least it's theoretically possible, as opposed to reaching Sonny and Karen on the other side of the world.

No, no, no, you're not supposed to put a smiley when you say you can't come see us!!!!

[Elizabeth Christensen]

Aack ... the perils of the smiley! It was supposed to be applied to the "theoretically possible" part regarding Sabine, but was badly placed. Mea culpa.

Although I hear Sonny takes her guests diving with sharks, so I'm not entirely convinced I want to visit ...

Yes, but she's a banana bender and therefore, by definition, A Crazy Person.

I'm the sane one. I'm from New South Wales.

I'll just smother you with a huge pile of dogs and cats.

Wimps.

[Elizabeth Christensen]

Wimps.

Damn straight. My husband will dive with you, Sonny. But if it doesn't involve heights or speed, I am in fact a certified wimp.
