A big hello and welcome to our latest check in post.

Thought I would start this post with links to a couple of sites that have some great stuff on them:

Internet Movie Car Database – Professionals section

Internet Movie Firearms Database – Professionals section

Next, as it is a Monday and we all need pretty things on a Monday, a few pics for you:



And lastly, as always, let us know how you are getting on in the comments, whether you are thinking, planning, plotting, writing, beta-ing, editing, cheerleading, or, like me, just waiting eagerly.

EDIT: In the comments golden_bastet linked to the seven point system which looks really interesting.

I hope so - and I'm busy with a story (only half the length, thank goodness) for another story exchange (LotR) so I'll concentrate on that and come back to Pros 'refreshed'!

Oooh, you're writing an LOTR story? What pairing? You'll definitely be refreshed for the Pros story after that.

It's a response to a request on a story exchange and is a threesome - Aragorn/Boromir/Faramir (yes, I know) in an AU where Boromir survives. It's just back from my beta and needs loving care and attention... Whereas Pros just need proofreading. LOL!

If you're interested it will probably reach AO3 after the exchange but you'd maybe need to friend me to check.

Loving care and attention... aka heavy edits and revising? *g*

Hmmm, threesomes which I don't care for and incest which is a squick... I think I'll pass. ;) (but I'm glad Borry is surviving in your story) But if you ever write something in LOTR that doesn't have those two things - let me know. I enjoy your writing.

That's what happens when you agree to write to a request - it was so detailed it almost gave me the skeleton plot!! And she was adamanat about the threesome and the incest so I've obliged! LOL! It's not my usual 'style' but I hope the writing is my norm.

Not heavy edits, but a lot of stupid things like extra spaces to sort out, and some explanatory bits to add - I tend to assume my readers are mind readers...

Then back to Pros! *g*

*g* Yeah, you gotta be careful what requests you're agreeing to write. A detailed request is good, though, because it tells you exactly what the requester is looking for rather than having to guess what will make them happy.

I'm glad it's not heavy editing.

Yay for back to Pros! :D
