Writers' Salon!
All right, guys, let's get this started.
This is a post for members to post their burning questions to each other. They can be simple, like "when is Character X's birthday," or not so simple "how would you define the relationship between Character X and Character Y?" If there's a story you want that author to talk about, throw in the title (and some points you'd like covered!) and if said author's willing, they can write their answer in a separate post, since I have no idea what the comment word limits are.
Here's how it'll work: an author who's up for answering questions/writing commentaries about stories will leave their name in a comment. Readers who want to ask questions or request stories reply to that comment, and hopefully we'll have some good conversations going!
If you guys request stories, it may be best if you limit them torainbowfic for the time being, unless the story you've got archived outside the comm is in a public entry.
EDIT: If it's not already obvious, you can ask authors more than one question in however many comments you like. The point is to have a discussion, and it wouldn't be very lively if it stopped at one question per author! Just give the author a chance to finish answering your previous questions, of course.

no subject
1) Freedom. Big favorite. It just said... everything that I wanted it to say, compactly and nicely and some more things that I didn't know I wanted to say.
2) Reverance. Wrote itself. I still love it for the language.
3) winter. Slightly different because I can see the flaws in it, and yet I can't imagine changing a single word. I love this story. I love it a lot.
4) can't go back. This one had been hovering around in my head for a while, and when I wrote it out finally it was exactly as I'd imagined it.
5) Sacraments. I was a little worried about this one when I wrote it, but it was an area of Gina's life that needed to be explored, and in the end I liked it a lot better than I thought I would. I think that's at least partly thanks to Father Arnott.
6) Choices. I was really scared about this one too-- I think you remember that-- but it turned out as a soapbox story that wasn't on a soapbox at all and I'm really, really pleased with it.
7) Conquering Hero. Sweet, silly, happy sex. Worked exactly like I wanted it to despite me never having written sex before.
8) Here Kitty Kitty, aka The One Where Joy Took Over My Life.
And those are my favorites!
