I made my first true contribution to my fellow Browncoats today. (at least in my mind):smile: I noticed several posts for translations from all the different episodes and I thought, gee, wouldn't it be nice to have everything in one places. I happened to have a pretty big list on my computer so I compiled it all into one list and posted it to reference section. It's in the queue list now if anyone is interested. It made me feel real good to think that I was contributing back to the community that has offered me so much. I hope that my list proves useful to some of you and I hope that, being my first ever post, I did it right. You can find it here...

Hi hi--I've been a fan of everything and anything Joss Whedon has touched for ages....it all started years ago with Buffy, then led to Angel, then Firefly--which I caught the last episode of when it was running, and was crushed when I found out it was cancelled-I had just found it!! I got the DVD set for Christmas, and have been revelling in the firefly-ness ever since--then I find YOU GUYS!! This site is great, the people are awesome, and I can't stay away from my computer, because I can't wait to see what happens on the RP--yay!!

I learn so much about writing from this show. It takes good storytelling to a whole new level. The dialogue is brilliant. Every sentence carries at least two layers of meaning--it moves the story forward and gives us something else as well: new information about the character, or a laugh, or a hint about the continuous narrative which runs through the series, or a bit of backstory. It takes months for a writer to polish a scene to that level. But these scripts were apparently written very quickly, by people who were juggling a hundred other responsibilities at the same time. I can't imagine how they did it. It's inspiring. It makes me want to work harder than ever at my own writing.
