And a question. by Anity on 2009-08-16 04:52:00 UTC Reply

Looking back over the fic, I realized that it's in diary format (it was kind of hard to tell). Is there anything that has to be done to stop it from being presented as writing on a page, or should I just treat it like a normal fic?

I don't know of anything specifically relevant, but your best bet as a general rule is to consider how best to get an entertaining mission out of it. Treat it as diary format if you like, if you can make that work to make a readable mission. If that's not workable, throw some pseudobabble in to excuse it being translated to third person. It's really up to you either way, how you feel is best to deal with it. Honestly, there's a lot less Rules about than people often seem to think. Just play it by ear.

…so I don't know how many of the horses are canon or how many new colleagues Alice is getting.

Among other things, summary FAIL. And the grammar...gah. Looks like a perfect example of why just running the spellcheck over things isn't sufficient. Thank you for offering to kill it :P

Just found this on the Pit - more childhood killage, Winnie-the-Pooh this time:

That's got to be a troll, right?

Kill it with my wholehearted encouragement.
