Snack -- Vive le grudgefuck!

Well...

I just finished my second Snack -- 3000k. I'm quite pleased. The first one I actually wrote -- brilliant plan of action, executed poorly. I must go back and fix one of these days.

I love this pairing for a multitude of reasons;

They hate eachother.

They really hate eachother.

They really, really hate eachother.

So to all the gifted Snack writers -- [livejournal.com profile] amanuensis1, [livejournal.com profile] cluegirl, [livejournal.com profile] ellen_fremedon, [livejournal.com profile] fabularasa, [livejournal.com profile] isiscolo...

What is the key ingredient to writing this pairing and doing so convincingly?

IMHO, this is one, if not the most difficult slash pairings to pull off.

It's like...trying to snap a picture of your two-year old at Sears Portrait Studio :P

It's like...putting a pair of sunglasses and a big floppy hat on your dog, hoping he'll stay that way and strike a pose :P

They...just...won't...cooperate.

FYI -- I'd love to hear from everyone. If I have forgotten anyone that writes Snack in abundance, 'please' just give me a firm slap on the wrist, and I'll edit.

I'm sorry to interrupt posts here, but I'm a new livejournal user, and am not sure if there is a better way to send you an email. I just saw the post you put on the restituere club, and I just wanted to thank you for all the work you put into your backstories. I love the variety of different characters on Restituere, and think you've done a wonderful job defining your character. Every story on there is so unique, and the authors do a wonderful job working together to keep each character consistent. I read Restituere every time I turn on my computer, and you are one of the reasons why. Thanks for all your hard work! It is appreciated!

It's cool -- I've said my piece :-)

Where in Michigan are you from?

I'm from Ann Arbor, MI. Nice to know I'm not the only slash reader who can tell someone where they live by pointing to their hand!
