Subject: Chat and fic for X-Files

Description: There is apparently a limiting feeling amoung some writers in several fandoms
about what is and what isn't an acceptable scenerio or situation to write the
characters in. A glass ceiling, as it were. Since that, to me, isn't what
writing is all about, especially in a fandom as unique as X-Files and since I
am never more happy than when I'm reading or writing something that might press
the *shock* button, I'm opening this field of play to anyone who feels they
might want to write outside the inner circle. Come crash the glass ceiling
with me.

That said, if you do join this list, don't sound off against what's written.
If its not your cuppa, delete... This is a home for writers looking past the
self-imposed horizons and exploring the possibilites. Expect the unexpected.

I'm gonna ask here that the authors remember to share with this list when
you're sharing with others. We can only get pleasure from the sharing if
something is posted to the list. And readers, play your part by feeding the
authors. Its more important than you may realize

All the stories will be considered direct submissions to the multi-fandom/lists
list archive, the WWOMB and as such
be posted to the list archive unless they
include a direct DO NOT ARCHIVE notation

Because this archive handles several hundred lists, I don't have time to notify
each writer as their stories go up so I recommend you join the direct
submissions/announcements list at

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Makebelieve

if you want to be informed.

I have neither the time or the inclination to moderate the posts for minor
ears, joining tells the world you are over legal age. Be honest.

Finally, if you spam the list I will remove it AND you without warning. We don't need spam in our files. I do however encourage chatter onlist. It tends
to stimulate ficcies, and that's what we're here to inspire, aren't we.

Oh yea, and its been requested that you include your couples in your posts,
please do this. some readers would rather only read the pair they like and not
wade through the rest.

See ya on the flip, luvs...
