The PPC Posting Board - Latest posts

You can also contribute ships (and stories!) even if you have opted out, if you want to. None of this is even *remotely* mandatory, and opting out of one part doesn't prevent you from joining in on other ways if you want to. Like the badfic games, this is meant to be purely for fun. You are *in no way* obligated to participate, nor will we *in any way* judge you for not doing so. I promise.

It's pretty hard (or impossible?) to search the Board archives in the Board for usernames, but searching 'Ninny' got me to some mentions back in March and April of 2017. That does give at least a little context, though--I don't remember that screen name very well, but I do remember seeing it. Bassman or Bass man is completely unfamiliar, I'm afraid.

Generally, it's helpful to have only one PPC screen name, even if you're on both the Board and the Discord--it really, really helps eliminate confusion. Changing screen names is fine--I did it myself, back in January of last year* (...time flies)--but usually that comes with an announcement so people know. This, again, helps eliminate confusion.

You as well? Maybe that’s because I’ve been inactive the past few months. Need to fix that. The reason I was interested was because of story writing. Then when I kept looking in the PPC I saw how much there is in terms of writing, I would have to catch up on years of writing to be updated. And with my life now, it’s nearly impossible.

Also, I do remember you though.

You’ll find me under Ninny more than bassman as the PPC Board. Unless those archives were purged.

And Pratchett's not the only famous author to give similar advice. I think Stephen King said something along the lines of "adverbs are not your friend" in his book On Writing.

Here's a good article about why: http://www.darcypattison.com/writing/revision/adverb-advice-use-carefully/

I like that the author mentions voice and rhythm as a reason to use a word with an extra syllable or two. ^_^

Also have must-not-enter-word-worlds Sindarin dubs of season 6 of Lobor Nîn Bîn: Gwend Nâ Angol.

(If I messed up the Sindarin, someone please correct it.)

Write day and night like we're running out of time...

More badfics up for grabs:

1. Alcartur > By: Haggis in Wonderland reviews
"Do you believe in fate?" "Of course I do. 'Means I can't be held accountable for my actions." - In which Leo is quite surprised when she finds an alternate universe in her bathroom. Eventual Tenth-Walker.

My comment: A simile in the second chapter turns into a metaphor (and I predict very unfortunate consequences), and also it's WAY too much to hope for that the summary is using base nine.

2. The Messenger by Nolwe -- NSFW!

3: Our Sister > By: caro.cola9 reviews
Kali is the younger sister of Fili and Kili, and the niece of Thorin. When she joins them on their quest to reclaim Erebor, she is thrown into all kinds of danger. Will her brothers be able to protect her. I'm sorry, I suck at summaries. NO INCEST! I do not own the hobbit! If I did, Fili, Kili and Thorin would not have died.
Hobbit - Rated: Fiction K - English - Adventure/Fantasy - Thorin, Fíli, Kíli, OC - Chapters: 5 - Words: 4,633 - Reviews: 5 - Favs: 8 - Follows: 5 - Updated: Mar 1 - Published: Jan 21 - id: 12809347

My comment: Chapter 5 is an author's note, and furthermore I don't think the name Kali appears in either Edda.

Yes you bloody well are. Because you are a wonderful, adorable person who has done more for me than the vast majority of any people I have ever met and that deserves to be shared.

It turns out I make a pretty good dog.

Like a sudden figure in the blackness, she appears, as if from nothing!

The ship is obvious: Alleb/education.

If you like hanging around it so much instead of us why don't you just marry it >:(

and yes you definitely owe me, I will be waiting.

Goodness me! Alrighty! I'm in and shippable--although I've been so silent for the past few months, I don't think any of our newbies have even encountered me. Hello to anyone I haven't met yet! No slash or genderbending for me, and please keep it SFA. For any newbies that (for some reason?) want to ship me and haven't encountered that term, SFA is SFW, but more so. Basically, keep it PG, please ^_^

As for the description, I'm female, average height, with dirty blonde hair that sometimes likes to be brown and sometimes likes to be a weird sort of reddish-brown. It curls a bit when it feels kind and gets weird waves when it feels grumpy. I have dark brown eyes, and fairly dark eyebrows that I like to call female-Gandalf brows (cf. the description of Gandalf in the Hobbit).

Also, I'm not quite buff like Agent Alleb (yet) but I'm actually starting to get a bit of definition in my arms! Yay for working out!

I don't have any ships yet. Gotta get back in the shipping mindset; we'll see what I come up with later on.

Also, Larfen, I think I still owe you payback for that me/Marty Robbins fic last year. It's on.

-Alleb

Old beardy-nerdy obsessive nitpicker is all the description you’ll get.

Kaitbos, the Hamilton Ship. Because they've never been satisfied. And there's a million things they haven't done. But just you wait. Just you wait. *grin*

So... dankeschön (German for thank you), since I can't think of any other ways to say thank you in English without being repetitive.
