QUICK CUTS
*Showtime's The L Word is once again giving fans an opportunity to be a part of the show's writing process. After last year's popular fanisode (TM), in which fans of the series submitted their scripts and the show's online community voted for the one they wanted turned into an episode, the show has teamed up with FanLib to create "The L Word: Fans on Film." From the press release:
Registration is now open at TheLWord.FanLib.com for fans who will be challenged to share their own real-life personal experiences based on themes from the popular drama. Led by a member of the show's writing team, millions of fans of THE L WORD will be invited online to write, read, rate and discuss these personal stories. Over the course of one month, fans will submit their original stories, focusing on the selected theme each round, which could range from love and career to family and friendship. The online community will choose the winning writers...

...The winning writers of THE L WORD: Fans on Film fanisode event will have their story produced on video by Showtime exclusively for the series' DVD and website at Sho.com/Lword. Other prizes provided by event sponsors include vacations to Pearl's Rainbow in Key West and merchandise from Love & Pride jewelry store.

THE L WORD is the critically acclaimed series, which follows the lives and loves of a group of women and the lesbian community they call home. From its first airing back in 2004, THE L WORD is a provocative journey that reveals an integral part of America's social fabric.
