I get a lot of anon (and non-anon) messages on Tumblr asking questions about writing. People are looking for tips and tricks and what my process is and how their process should be, all kinds of stuff. Which gave me an idea. Why not make an anonymous inbox right here on the website, and turn it into a weekly column? The blog has been sparse lately, and since I answer Tumblr questions a couple times a week on average, it wouldn’t be a hardship. Use the form below to leave a big damn question, and I’ll answer two of them every Thursday.
Is “The Big Damn [Whatever]” a pet phrase for you?
It’s a Firefly reference.
Mal: Well, look at this! Appears we got here just in the nick of time. What does that make us?
Zoe: Big damn heroes, sir!
Mal: Ain’t we just.
— Firefly, “Safe”
Ha! I’ve only ever watched one episode of Firefly. “Big damn” is a common phrase where I’m from. You catch a big damn fish, make a big damn sammich, etc.
oh my god thank you
