Greetings, BB’ers, I do hope this check in finds you well.

The sad news that we lost another great Pros writer, Pam Rose recently, has had me reading some very old, classic fic this week but whether that’s given me inspiration or not is debatable. I think it’s just reminded me what a long, long way I have to go!

How about you? Are you struggling to get started or are you well established and enjoying the ride? As always, we love to hear of your trials and triumphs if only to lend a listening ear, so please feel free to let us know how you’re getting on!

Best wishes, everyone and here’s to another great week of writing x

Not a BBer, but sad to hear about Pam Rose. I'd not heard anything - do you mind me asking where you found out?

Ah, Fb - not something I can cross with fandom...

Thanks for noting it here, so us non-fb-ers hear about it!

I am very glad I have made it past 7000 words in my story, because after being off a couple weeks, I go back to work tomorrow.

This fandom is intimidating as hell. Such great and classic writers.

I was watching the Falcon and Winter Soldier and there’s a scene where Bucky is squaring off against hi shrink. Which inspired me to scrap my old story and apparently I’m writing a story with Macklin and Cowley sending Bodie and Doyle to face off with Dr Ross. Trying to write her a strong and not the evil doctor.

Jat... want a pre-read of the 2000-ish words I have? I could use someone to know it’s not utter drivel.

Please! Use my username here at yahoo.com. Because tax season has been extended, it's hard to tell how busy I will be tomorrow--my work shift is 9 to 9-- but Saturday I am off, so I can read it then if I can't tomorrow.

You got my response, I hope.

Sounds like a great idea to me. I always have trouble guessing Ross's motives.

Trying to find sources for 1970’s British psychology and psychiatry...

Good luck! I had an idea I had to drop because I would need to find out about UK chef lingo ... and I couldn't.
