That's the thrill of living in the Hellmouth! There's a veritable cornucopia of fiends and devils and ghouls to engage ... Pardon me for finding the glass half-full.

Not to continue the trend of talking about this here instead of B'cracy, but I agree with ita. If it was a regular poster, I would say delete it. If started to become a serious problem, I'd say delete it. But for the nice new person who just found us, I think we can just leave it alone.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I'm fine w/ ignoring it, too. It's not a huge deal.

Are you ready to be strong?

I will not ignore it exactly because I will notice it and think it's nice. But beyond that I'm in favor of doing nothing.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

The slug for the Great Write Way says

Discussion and workshopping of original fiction.

Since poetry and essays are also posted there, and since on a few occasions I've seen people question whether they'd even be allowed to post a poem there, I'd love to change it to

Discussion and workshopping of original writing.

Any thoughts or objections?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I don't think that's BBaBB so much, since it's not technical.

Me, i got no problems with it, but I'd bring it up in B'cracy, since it has a different audience.

Done. (And will I never stop getting the two wrong?)

If I only had a brain...

ita, I just got a Message Center page with no links to the Bitches or Natter threads. Forwarded to you directly.

Thanks Betsy. I'll have a careful look at that.
