Out of lack of other ways to communicate a response to your most recent AKOTAS - have you considered spending more time in alternative verses? You just started a Buffy alternative, and you have several years of material to draw on from there. For that matter, you could go to the one of the old standbys of fanfiction and add in alternative sources to fill the gap - as in, you have often done Arthur-myth plots set in verses based on Star Trek, MASH, etc.; could you (for the next however long) perhaps take some plots from those alternative sources and examine how they would work in the multitude of your verses? E.g. instead of the story of Tristan and Isolde in Star Trek, the story of "Trouble With Tribbles" translated back into Arthur fairytale verse? (And presumably other, more serious storylines as well, which could get you a few months of materials - you could use flashbacks for various things that would be more interesting if they happened in the past of AKOTAS - Lancelot is already Angel in your Buffy-verse, so that time period in AKOTAS where he was crazy could potentially be mined for Angelus-with-a-soul-in-the-sewer comparisons, etc.)

Not sure if this would interest you, of course, or if you have already considered it and discarded the idea, but I figured I'd suggest it. (I'm biased, of course - I love AKOTAS very much, and would love to see it go on for three more years instead of a time-skip!)

I haven't formulated, let alone articulated, real responses to the words of encouragement I've received in response to last week's rant, but thanks for your suggestions.
