So, here's my livejournal - I'm going to try to keep it specific to my endeavours as I write fan-fiction for Dr. Who (thus far only at Teaspoon, but maybe I'll branch out one of these days if I get brave). Not sure what to put on here, but I'll figure it out. Probably recommendations and fiction bits and whatever else.

I have another writing project that I talk about on my other blog: lostinethia.blogspot.com if you want to check that out. Been working on a series of humorous high-fantasy-ish adventures for many years. One novel in the can, another in the works, a third ready to go after that, and just need  to build some confidence to get it out there for publication. Writing on Teaspoon is the first step - it's a lot easier to have someone give you feedback on a story you wrote about characters you didn't create than to put your whole soul out there the first time. At least I think it is. I couldn't have survived it if my characters from my own imagination were reviled and torn down right out the gate. Writing for Teaspoon gives me the chance to write stories to see if people like the WAY I write, which will give me confidence to go further with my original work.

So, that's all for this first entry. Now, to see where we go from here. Allons-y!

Hi! Welcome to LJ! I stumbled on LJ about a year ago when I was reading some DW fic. This is a great place for writers. I can't begin to express how helpful it is to have a place to meet other writers and get help or input on stories you are working on. who_in_whoville has given you an excellent summary.

There are many resources for writing DW fics. For general dw related questions, I recommend time and chips OT (off topic). It's a place to post questions. People on the site are quite nice and friendly. Here's a link to tons of DW resources on LJ

Sorry my link's not pretty but I have never figured out how to make them look nice in comments.

I think writing in the Doctor Who community is an excellent way to learn about your style. Right now, I'm pretty much exploring styles and genres I like to write and what feels natural. It's a great opportunity for feedback and advice.

Glad to see you here and can't wait to read your sequel!
