Good point, I think I use my own fanon as well. Sometimes I realize I'm doing it -- like the John McClane in my head is usually a total neatfreak, and that might pop up in more than one fic. And there were times with QaF fic standalones when *I* knew that I was revisiting the scene of a previous 'verse, but no one else did.

hmmm you know we don't see John at home in any of the films... but i can see him as a neat freak :D

I'm actually reading with interest. I love "listening" when you talk about your craft...I just never know what to say. The writing I do for work is so very, well practical and completely different from what you do. I very much want to write fiction, but I don't think I have the talent for it.

ah, but at least you get paid to do it..

i'm getting there... just little scripts right now.. but someday... and i'm sure you have tons of talent at writing... :D you just have to try it...

speaking of writing... know anything about the history of baseball???? :D

Thanks D. :) I'm glad to hear you've got your foot in the door with scripts. Thats a _huge_ deal.

As far as the history of baseball goes, well, you've come to the right person. I'm better with some eras than others but would be happy to help with whatever you want. What would you like to know?

I don't know if you've seen my posts about it here, but I have a baseball blog on the side. In fact I took my only stab at a fanfaction outline there :):

i have seen that, Seth sent me the link...

my current fun is my blog My Ethereality - http://www.raydean.net

covering the victorian era (and anything steampunk that comes along) so, do you know anything about victorian era baseball??

I know very little... although Alexander Cartwright is buried here at Oahu Cemetery... so we see 'offerings' at his tombstone all the time...
