OT: new fanfic discussion list
by Kathryn Andersen 22 Dec '01

22 Dec '01

I've just created a new mailing list, and I'd be delighted if any of you interesting people could join me there. The GenFicCrit mailing list is a list for discussing fan fiction in general and in particular. - Gen stands for gen (not slash or adult), general (any fandom), general (fan fiction in general) - Fic stands for Fan Fiction - Crit stands for Critique, and "Criticism" in the classic sense of literary criticism, not of tearing into or tearing down or tearing apart. Rather, it implies intelligent analysis. We adhere to the principles of the <http://trickster.org./fca/:Fanfiction Critics Association>; that is, we respect Fan fiction enough to treat it with the same legitimacy as any other work of fiction, including being able to examine it seriously and in detail, without fear or favour. This is not a writer's support group. There are quite a few of them around, take a look at <http://www.smartgroups.com/groups/fanficideas> <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/fanfic_writer/> <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Beta_Unlimited/> for example. That isn't to say we don't want writers here -- far from it! Because most writers are readers first, and have good ideas about what they like and don't like in fanfic, and that's what we're interested in talking about. Where Can I Join? ================= This is a smartgroups mailing list; the list page is at <http://www.smartgroups.com/groups/gen_fic_crit>. Group Email: <gen_fic_crit(a)smartgroups.com> Manager Email: <gen_fic_crit-owner(a)smartgroups.com> To Join: <gen_fic_crit-subscribe(a)smartgroups.com> To Leave: <gen_fic_crit-unsubscribe(a)smartgroups.com> Please feel free to pass this post on to any lists where you think it may be relevant. Kathryn Andersen (List Keeper) -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Soolin: It's a bad place to be. No self-respecting idealist would be found dead there. Avon: I imagine that is what HE is trying to avoid: being found dead anywhere.

Re: One Ring to mindwipe them all

"The Nazgul's pterodatcyls are a lot meaner than the eagles, and with a burden it couldn't use its talons to fight," replied Elrond.

One Ring
by Helen Atkins 22 Dec '01

22 Dec '01

Elrond's whispered reply to Avon: The One Ring would utterly corrupt anyone who carried it to Mt Doom, the heartland of its power. And we couldn't find anyone brave, tough, or stupid enough to knock a giant eagle into the Cracks of Doom afterwards... _________________________________________________________________ Join the worlds largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com

I remember walking in the snow, numb with disbelief. But, like Sally, I still wouldn't have had it any other way, it was so bold and startling and utterly unexpected.

Better that B7 finished when it did than fade out into something 'silly' (as has happened with several other series) Jacqui -- __________________________________________________________________ Your favorite stores, helpful shopping tools and great gift ideas.

Twenty years ago...
by kevs -Kevin McCully 21 Dec '01

Hi all, Twenty years ago, on the 21st of December 1981, at 8pm, the screen fade to black. Then appeared the familiar BBC 1 globe, and the speaker gave voice... "And now on BBC 1", said the female announcer, "The last ever episode of Blakes 7." I remember it well, and how my heart sank to hear those words. So i invite you all to join with me in moment's quiet reverence for our heroes... ********* To the tune of "American Pie", By Don Maclain " Long, long time ago, I can still remember how that programme used to make me smile. I used to turn off all the lights, And watch their interstellar fights, And then i would be happy for a while. But late December made me shiver, When that female voice delivered Bad news from the speaker: It couldn't be much bleaker. I don't recall just how i felt, As i watched their dreams of freedom melt. Their lives were done; the blow was dealt. The day Blakes 7 died. So bye bye to the Scorpio crew. Fought for freedom for the masses 'gainst the wrath of the few. Flew to Gauda Prime for a final try, Singing This'll be the day we all die." ****** If anyone cares to complete this, or rewrite, feel free. Cheers, and Seasonal good wishes to you all, kevs ===== "Under an Aussie sky..." http://www.southernsky.fsnet.co.uk "afterglow", http://www.afterglow.fsnet.co.uk Kevin C McCully "The world is what you make it". __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
