I just want to give a shoutout to all of you who comment on fics. Kudos are wonderful too, but those of you that comment, especially regularly, are an extra kind of special. I’m always happy when I see your names in my email and you’re why I keep on writing.

I feel like this fic has become “come for the hot porns – stay for the plot that wandered in and decided to stay.”

When a writer puts words on paper, it is an intimate act. The reader hears your words in his voice and he becomes the bones of your story. The reader is the foundation that you wrap in muscle and sinew. You build the hero on the reader’s delicate frame until your story is his story. Your sorrow is his; your joy is a communion you both celebrate.

I’ve heard writers talk about “discovering a voice,” but for me that wasn’t a problem. There were so many voices that I didn’t know where to start.

Goddamnit, now i’m sorely tempted to write a jack/jack/jack threesome >.<
