This thread is for links/recommendations/what-have-you to references and resources that might be of use to writers.  I'm going to start it by repeating a couple of my recent posts on the subject, but it's open for everyone to add their own favorites and discoveries.

http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/11/23/buffy_movie/]According to The Register, there's a new Buffy movie in production. Early production - no director or cast has been announced.

It's a "re-imagining".

Also, "Joss Whedon, who created Buffy for the original 1992 film and subsequently guided her to TV success, will play no part in the project."

And the writer is currently "'fighting through' the script".

I'm not holding out a lot of hope for the quality of this movie, but I could be wrong...

A wind storm!

Then an ice storm!

Followed by another snow storm!

Followed by another wind storm!

Gorrammit, Western Washington is supposed to get one three inch snow fall a year than the rest of the winter is fourty two and rainy. That was the deal!

Why I'm mentioning this here should be obvious...

Does anyone know what happened to the grum?
http://thegrum.com/ no longer resolves to a working webserver, but the domain is still valid.
E: "Did they... did they just endorse the combination of the JSDF and US Army by showing them as two lesbian lolicons moving in together and holding hands and talking about how 'intimate' they were?"

This is one of the projects we're working on before we lift the freeze on moving Fenspace's "now". Anyone who wants access to the Google Document, please ask for it here. (Anyone with access to the Google Documents for The South Is Rising, Somebody Get a Hammer or The Fall of Crystal Osaka already has access to BoskonePrime.doc)

So far, all we've got is a short prologue to set the scene:

Its not really fanfiction, but its an awesome series that has both a free online prequel, and the author decided to put the most recent installment in the series on his site as well.
If you kind of squint and look at it sideways, you could call it Dreden Files fanfic maybe?
If you like that series, I definitely think you will dig this one.

Well, I've lost my laptop.  And along with it chapter 6 and chapter 7 of DSKS.
The good news is that I was backing up the folder to an SD Card.  That bad news is that at some point in time it started giving me some weird error - probably because the card was starting to go bad.  So I only have chapters 1 through 5.
I may get my laptop back, but it could take up to a year to happen.  Until then, I've taken the precaution of purchasing a new laptop.  It's a nice little thing, too.  Toshiba Satellite A665D series, with AMD Phenom triple core processor at 2.2 GHz and 1.5 MB of L2 Cache, 4 GB of DDR3 Memory, and an ATI Mobility Radeon with a dedicated 1 GB of DDR3 Memory.  I may not have my missing material back, but it's nice to have a computer again.
