lateseasonloveHi, folks! The mod kindly gave us permission to advertise a fun new community. Are you a fic writer for BtVS, AtS, or the comics and novelizations thereof? A beta reader? A plain old reader who is interested in the writing process behind the scenes of your favorite fics? Then please join us ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
writing_buffy. It’s a ship-neutral, character-neutral community devoted to the writing process behind fan works in the BtVS and AtS corner of the Whedonverse. Het, slash, and gen writers/betas/readers are all warmly welcomed.
Regular features of the community will include:
* Open threads each week to discuss your writing (or lack thereof) with fellow creators. It’s like a support group, only much more fun!
* Occasional workshops. Interested fans will lead these occasional discussions of craft (eg, how to write a zippy action scene), characterization, or even the process behind well-known and well-loved pieces of fic.
* Community challenges. Every two to three months, members will be invited to participate in anonymous challenges where they will be asked to write short pieces using a particular writing skill (eg the piece must be in second person imperative, a gothic mood, etc.) The short fics will go up in one big, anonymous post which community members will use as a jumping-off point for discussion on the writing tool, the short fics, and anything else the exercise inspires.
If this sounds interesting, please come visit us atwriting_buffy! (One quick side note: please don’t be intimidated by the low-tech header. Real live graphic artists will soon redesign the comm.)
