In
Their Own Words

October 2001
This
is the section where some of our favorite authors will share with
us (and you) their favorite stories from among their own work. The
lovely and talented Pix mentioned this idea to me in an e-mail,
saying how she thought it might be an interesting contrast with
the typical recommendations lists so prevalent on fan fic websites.
I,
of course, immediately wondered the same thing, and so, here we
are. This will be a weekly feature, with past Authors' Picks being
archived on a page called "From
the Desk of..."
So,
let us begin...
This
week, we have Kim of The West Wing fame. Kim writes funny, sexy,
flat-out enjoyable fic.. Click on the name of the story within the

Kim
says...
Okay,
so this could change cause I have a love/hate/kinda enjoy relationship
with my writing. Right now my favorite of my own is One-Liners.
Why? It was probably my third or fourth attempt at fan fic. I had
written a couple others and then I had a major brain block. I couldn't
really think of any other ideas and everything I started just didn't
work out. Then I watched 17 People and I finally knew what
I wanted to do. In that last scene with Josh and Donna, Donna walks
off to leave Josh standing there and watching her. I wanted to write
what went through his brain after that scene cut off. I love to
write the Josh POV. One-Liners
is what really made me discover this. It practically wrote itself
and everything just sounded right. I like to show how Josh has so
much power and control with his job, but with other things (especially
Donna) he's confused and has no clue what to do. My goal was to
make this point clear to the reader.
The
end product was short but it's exactly what I wanted.

So
there you have it — Kim, in her own words...
