New Xmas fanfic

HStorm

Thanks! And interesting idea about the "Best of Fanfic" thread. Maybe we could even set up a new forum for it.

Drassil

I don't think a new forum would be necessary, as we have the Creative section in the KM Off-Topic Forum (http://qwaz.proboards22.com, feel free to visit and/or join!); it's just that this Forum has far more (potential) readers than the Off-Topic Forum.

I would certainly recommend the story. It's a lot of fun. The point in the story when you realise why it is called '...Christmas Carol' is uplifting!

There are some nice resonances of 'Blackadder's Christmas Carol' (my favourite episode). Were they intentional?

JamesA

Very, very, good. And very, very, funny. ;D

Skarkill

In One Word.

LOVELY.

A entertaining, Fun Story.

Good Plot, Some good hummor, Brilliant Use of Dungeon Inhabitants.

AND SKARKILL GETS A STARING ROLE

Like I Said

LOVELY

VERY VERY VERY LOVELY

HStorm

Yes, but as you say, your hero gets a starring role. You're biased.

HStorm

You're right, Drass, the parallels with Blackadder were intentional, and I put in a couple of in-jokes in the dialogue - see if you can spot them - as a tribute to the key plot idea that Ebenezer B's story gave me.

While the plots do have similarities, they're certainly not the same. In fact you may notice stronger parallels with an episode of Quantum Leap - especially the ghostly charade.

Skarkill

TRUE.

But it dosen't stop me from commenting on an enjoyable story.

HStorm

I wouldn't dream of stoppin' ya, Skarky. After all, you'd stick my noddler in a thumbscrew the moment I tried it! (And yes, it would fit with plenty of room to spare, alas.)

Ah, yes. Nothing wrong with mixing Knightmare and Quantum Leap. Nothing at all.

HStorm

Heh, you have to take that stance seeing what you're planning to write next. Looking forward to it though.

Drassil

Thanks. With any luck, others are too. Anyone who's ever wondered what exactly 'Mrs. Scaramonger and all the little Scaramongers' are called, will be able to find out in my forthcoming fanfic. There are nine children...

HStorm

Right little fly-by-night ain't he, that Scaramonger? It's the long hair and the rich clothes that get 'em going isn't it?

HStorm

The first episode of a new Knightmare fanfic by myself and Jen Kollic (alias "Elita" on here, and "Ursula" on the RP forum) is now online. It's set to be another trilogy when (if!) it's completed.

Go to http://www.fanfiction.net/~hstorm and click on Sorcerer Scurvy to see it.

Drassil

Thanks for the notification. I responded to your post about the new story on the Off-Topic Forum. I look forward to reading it.

Can I take this opportunity to ask... Lord_Bob, Skarkill, GG, how are your fanfics going?

Skarkill

I am still tied up with collage work.

I probabley won't get back to the fanfic befor the Easter Holls.

Emii

Coolies - I'll read this one tomorrow night

HStorm

Nice. Feedback's welcome (and you won't even have to give examples - private joke), but I do recommend that people read the other stories first if they can manage it, or they may not understand the background to Scurvy.

?

Hi again, nice to see I am still remembered here. I have had computer trouble and haven't posted on here as much lately but don't worry. Your 12th Knight is still alive well and sick of Merlin!

HStorm

"Well" and "Sick of Merlin" sound like a contradiction in terms, yet logic dictates that they mean the same thing. Quite a paradox.

Mine is going quite well, although I'm not really working from beginning to end. It tends to end up that way whenever I write things so I'm not concerned by it, but it does make it hard to tell how far you've got when you have so many gaps to fill in.
