ILoveTracyQ - did I just see love and Lulu in the same sentence? I didn't think you had it in you. Making progress on my first chapter. Still need a title. I've done about three or four little vignettes. I think I may work on extending them, because they seem very short to me. Never satisfied. It's currently at 8/9 pages in word, a little over 4500 words. I think I'd be happy with about 15 Word pages per chapter. Just have to get there. I should get back to writing. Edit: Where'd the Olive scene take place? The MetroCourt? Or Jake's?

Page 119! Thanks for the encouragement, everybody. You'll be the first to know when a chapter's up. Oh, and Ms. Q? Great article/blurb!

Started on my Tracy Q piece. Not sure what I'll name it as yet. The first chapter is not nearly finished, but the first bout of writing landed me at 1,932 words per minute and roughly 3 1/2 pages in Word. After some brainstorming, I'm off to write a little more.

Hello!

Yay Jane's in the Mailbag! And so is Ms. Q! Double-score! I wanna see! So Lorenzo/Quartermaines spoiler is really Lorenzo/Robert? Dumb. LaineyBev, yet to read your little slice of fic, but I'm going to now, because it's been so talked about I can't not read it. Edit: Read it. It rocks. Left a comment on the Ficathon. Oh, and, I've begun what I think will become a several chapter fic. I may be looking for a beta reader, if anyone's interested. I'm probably going to be very imptient with myself as far as length. I need word, I miss being able to do word count and have page breaks, damn it. Oh well.

Oh, I love you!

Question #1: What would Tracy go back and change about her life? Try to choose only ONE thing. I agree with the sons thing. #2: Who does she think of most when in a melancholy mood? Or her own regrets. #3: Tracy can secretly kick ass. And only Luke knows it. #4: Tracy would give anything for Edward to respect her. #5: What Tracy loves best about Luke is the challenge. #6: Tracy admires her mother more than any other person on earth. Living or dead. #7: Tracy has been married 5 times and name her husbands in order: Larry Ashton, Mitch Williams, Paul Hornsby, Gino Soleito, and of course, our wonderful Kuke...I mean Luke. #8 Tracy keeps pepper spray in her nightstand. #9 Tracy is currently reading Wicked. #10 Tracy's best traits are: her determination and drive. #11 Tracy's worst traits are: her lack of self-esteem, penchant for deception, and her impossible jealousy. #12 Essay question: The reason I am the world's biggest Tracy fan(or just a Tracy fan) is: Why am a Tracy fan? That question is rhetorical? Well, I love my underdogs. And veteran actresses. Jane Elliot is a star, plain and simple. Until 2003, I didn't know what a Tracy Quartermaine was. Ever since, boy do I ever. I fell for that woman then and she barely did anything but drop her son off. When I heard she was coming on full force, I nearly wet myself. Oh, the possibilities. At the same time, GH had been taking a turn for the worse, and I couldn't really watch. I soldiered on, and watched our girl whenever I could. And I got some real treats. Lila's death rocked me to the core. Elliot hit a triple homerun. Just brilliant. The PC Fire sucked like nothing else, but there was a highlight. Tracy and her boys. Then came the moment that we never expected--her marriage to Luke. We hate this man because she deserves better, but we cheer him because he grants her more airtime than TPTB feel she deserves. More recently, we were introduced to a side of Tracy we haven't seen in this tenure before. Olive!Tracy, CurlyHair!Tracy, and Tender!Tracy. There's no better kind of love. ETA: 118!

Yay! Audrey! Anybody else notice yet that we're on pg 117? I assume since you have stuff in your signature, you just need to know coding and whatnot. If you have an image, upload to photobucket or whatever. They'll give you an tag. Just post it in your signature in My Controls.

How can Ned be involved? I thought Kurth was off the show, like, officially. Sigh.

Would that be scotch or brandy?

Steve/Kayla was a bit, um, instant. Not sure how I feel about that. I love Alan. Is that wrong? Philip's return = orgasm

For any of the roles, it depend son what you're looking for. For Jeremy I'd suggest Drew Tyler Bell (who I've cast), or Greg Rikaart. Of course, I've always pictured Jeremy to look like Robin and have Mike's blue eyes. As for Andrew, I'd suggest Chad Brannon. Jeannie--probably a newbie. Maybe the girl who plays Maddie on ATWT. Not sure about Spencer.

I ... *gasp* ... Hidden Truths ... *hides* ...

For tracyluver-- Canon means following the plot line of the fandom, as opposed to AU--which presents an alternative. ICAM is I couldn't agree more.

MF, I <3 Jane's expression in your avatar.

Well, Pratt is gone, Clink. Guza however... but there are rumors...*grumbles*

Glad she'll be back!

Good news!: Phelps has resigned! ...what? You told me to lie if I must...

Alan! That bastard! Kayla had to want peace and quiet. That bitch. Great, great, great episode.

Considering the fact that censorship is the word in this country to date, and ABCD is FULL of the kind of bullshit politics to pimp it, I thin it's entirely the case. I kn ow, I'm usually the positive one. But everyone knows the editing on the show has been choppy. VERY choppy, especially lately. So, who cares if she actually filmed or not? If they saw her Soap Talk, they could have misconstrued her words (which honestly anyone could have, from an outsider's perspective--like, maybe Frons, since he's in charge of SoapNET now) and scrapped anything she did shoot. But that's just me, Call me cycnical. Though, honestly, I can't see any scenes having been scrapped, as there's been no indications that she would have been on. Still, after all her airtime pre-Soap Talk and now after. It's weird. And the majority of it was all post-Luke. It was strange, no doubt, and maybe even a fluke, but I'm not one for coincidences.

Hmm. About her Soap Talk comments. Has she not been on since that aired?

Genius title! I when I saw it.

Poor Will! Intrigued by Lance. The Melissa's kids thing came out of left field. I knew she had kids, but maybe I missed an epi Yay, Steve! I thought Kay weas going to run into him at Green Mountain since he's always on the move

--skips merrily down Midol lane-- Sorry, it had to be said. I'll get right on that meatless and cheeseless loaf for ya, cuz--I mean, Deb. --another jab I couldn't resister. Sorry! -- And yeah, I'm with Deb on the whole incest issue. It's not unheard of. But to go into it knowingly? That just seems like all kinds of icky. Knowledge is power, or something. But as Ms. Q said, when it all comes down to it, we're all human, and all somehow related, so, yeah. Moving on... Any Tracy today? No? I knew it! Me? Afraid? You're talking to a man who watches/has watched GH just to see a little Jane Elliot action. If I'm not afraid of that... Hmm. I may!

Ms. Q, isn't the last one a quopte from her Soap Talk interview? LOL. Too cute, all of them. I gotta stop winning stuff in this thread, or I'll have an angry mob, completely with pitch forks and torches.
