The PPC Posting Board - Latest posts

I actually joined the community already; like it says there, it's better than keeping loads of bookmarks. I'll probably friend anyone I have sufficient dealings with here, rather than spamming everyone. Thanks very much, though. ^^

We have we have our own community over there, though to be honesty it's mostly used for cross-posting missions and the occasional Board-is-Being-Spammed-Again announcements. Anyway, most of us who have livejournal are part of that community, and generally, we don't mind being friended by fellow PPCers - though we don't always friend back. So if you want to have more 'official' online friends... :)

With hot sauce all over them and dripping into their eyes.

It's sour-idealist.livejournal.com.

Glad I could be your first one, then!

Thanks! I never had an online friend before.

I think that there might be a few people who have their stories/mission on FictionPress...

And once you do make your LJ, feel free to friend me. The link's here.

How about FictionPress? I'm vaguely aware that FanFiction doesn't like us, but the sister site might not mind... There's a review feature on there, as well.
Aw, to hells with it. I'll make a Livejournal now. Cheers!

My apologies; Dreamwidth isn't free. You have to either been invited to join or pay to open an account there. Livejournal's the free one of the two.

As you've noted, there's LJ, but some people (Trojie comes to mind)have been using Dreamwidth, which is like LJ. There's also the option of using Freewebs or a similar free web site hosting service. Really, it's up to you, so long as it's accessible to everyone else. Also, whatever's easiest for you to use. LJ and Dreamwidth are free to sign up for, and they have the added bonus of allowing other people to comment on the entries, whereas a webpage might not have that option.

That was a good mission. I liked the interactions between Xericka and Luxury.

Why is stuff like that so frequently written? Glad you killed it.

I haven't been here anywhere near long enough to post things yet, but planning is a wonderful thing. Where's the best place to post missions? Most I see are on livejournal, but I don't have an account there... does it even matter?
Thanks.

... not to put a long vitriolic rant against the author in there somewhere. The original draft of the author's notes had me calling him a number of things which I sobered up and realised I'd likely get kicked out of the PPC for openly saying, so I took that out.

I will, however, say that, to steal a metaphor from Neil Gaiman's "Neverwhere", calling his writing creepy is like describing the planet Jupiter as being larger than a duck.

Awesome! I tried cutting down the quotes as much as possible for this 'fic, but found that I couldn't do much more than I'd already done because then the quotes wouldn't have made any sense at all instead of the just-barely-there sense that was needed.

And by the way, comments, regardless of shiny newness of their commenter, are always welcome and appreciated.

First of all, my comments may not mean so much what with me being new, but... well.
Ian and Lee's banter is superbly written.
My only problem is the quotes from the fic being a bit long, though that's a problem with the fic itself, not your sense of pacing. The fic hurts me.
I'm not a CSI fan and I enjoyed reading this, which is definitely a good sign.

That would be perfectly fine. ^^

Aw, thanks! I had fun writing that bit. Actually, I had fun writing the whole thing.

Would it be okay to put a link to that story on my agents' pages?

'A harried-looking Cali was revealed, his vibrant blue hair mussed up even more than usual, which was saying something, given that on any normal day some of the better descriptors of his hair could be "sentient and possibly trying to escape".'

That was my favorite part there. I loved that description of his hair.

...but the fact that this story even exists in a supposedly good world is doing cruel things to my outlook of humanity. I know we aren't supposed to talk about the authors, but I sincerely hope this one never rises to a position of power over another human being. Or any other animal, for that matter.

The html tags are supposed to be there; it's easier for me to put them in beforehand, so that way I can post my 'fic quicker on LJ.
