Here's how it works. Claim a topic from A-Z and I'll blog about it. I'd prefer writerly subjects but if you fancy something more out there, then go for it. Claim more than one if you fancy it (or I'm unlikely to fill them all up!!)

A - Alliteration
B - Boudicca
C - Critique
D - Dinosaurs
E - Editing
F - Flirting
G - Gay/Gynocrat
H - Head Hopping
I - Influences
J - Jekyll & Hyde
K - Kids in Fiction
L - Literotica
M - Music
N - Nouns and Adjectives
O - Oxymoron
P - Penis Envy
Q - Quest endings
R - Royal Family, The
S - Skepticism
T - The Good The Bad & The Ugly
U - Underneath - what's going on beneath the surface of the plot
V - Venus Envy ... the subterranean urge that makes male writers want to write female characters, like Madame Bovary and Anna Karenina...
W - Wit
X - Xerxes
Y - Yesterdays
Z - Zelotary

PS: and ETA: I reserve the right to interpret your prompt any way I damn well please...

Head Hopping. Does that count as two? Seriously, since it seems to be such a matter of interpretation on the part of the reader, where does good old fashioned 3rd person omniscient end and the dreaded head hopping begin?

Re: H, please.

Counts as one, and ouchie. That's a sore point with all the HH done in Standish.

I know better now!

Thankee!

How about P for "Penis envy"? That may tie into why so many women write under male pseudonyms.

Or not. I just realized how chauvinistic I sounded!

P is for "Privilege" envy. I wouldn't dare skinnydip with an outie... too much like bait. 8-P

For U, how about understanding opposing viewpoints? Kind of random, but. :)

Date: 2008-06-16 09:56 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] erastes.livejournal.com
Someone's nabbed U - do you want another letter? Please?

Well, as someone has proposed Alliteration, I think I'll go for O = Oxymoron. Also M = Music.
