*sigh* Add me to the list of people in this thread, which is not a good thing since my current e-mail won't even exist after tomorrow at the latest (the old upgrade-to-broadband problem). And it's not a Gmail/hotmail/whatever type of problem, either...I'll have to see if my Yahoo account works...

Granted! Unfortunately, it was a completely lame wish, and now when you try to answer it you'll have to supply all the creative ingenuity to make it funny. Even more unfortunately, stressing over it causes you to pop a blood vessel in the brain and leaves the left side of your body completely paraly...

I'm going to go the opposite direction of most posters in this thread and say that I prefer my historical fiction--regardless of medium--to stick as close to history as possible. This is why I also prefer my historical fiction to be as "small-scale" as possible--that is, I don't want to se...

Granted! All the suckage that presently possesses January will be forthwith moved into late December. Thanks for ruining Christmas!

I wish that I had more time to work on writing.

Granted! You twist the wish with such excruciating brilliance and such twisted humor that everyone is awed by your ability. Unfortunately, when cure goes stark, staring mad from the tormenting, delicate cruelty of it that slices at his thoughts like tiny slivers of glass behind his eyes, you are ove...

True...true! But think of the magic weapons you could get! If you know, could put up with an emotionally scarred, subserviant yet subversive girl of unknown ethnicity, who's possibly the sister of God/The Devil, oh, and having the incests with him, and challengers with severe emotional problems are...

Almost nything whatsoever in Koudelka or Shadow Hearts can be considered Ravenloft-fodder. Reading the Guard's Diary or Patrick's research notes in the former game can still give me chills. And the cutscene where Koudelka is knocked out by Ogden, wakes up strapped to the table while he's honing his ...

Here's a thought that just occurred to me... What if it isn't the vampire queen and her court's fault that the town is now deserted? That is, that there's some third-party nasty out there (and you can get fairly exotic with this, given that you said you wanted the campaign to be more of a "pure...

The Clothes Make the Monster (one-shot, humor)

Given my love for Sherlock Holmes, I've been trying to work on an Alanik Ray pastiche for a couple of months now. I had a couple of ideas, but I seem to have an eerie talent for getting quagmired in Chapter Three. Instead, you get...this. The real challenge was keeping everyone in character up to t...

Hey, thanks for the info. Who knows, given the ease of submission I may toss something in their general direction and see if they're having a slow month one of these days. :wink:
