The PPC Posting Board - Latest posts

I just finished the latest chapter of a fanfic I'm in the middle of. It's called Voyage of the Cat's Eye and it's a Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles AU (with a bunch of other CLAMP crossovers). It's set in a pirate 'verse and it's romantic/comedy/adventure.

Basically, my problem is this. Cassie normally betas for me, and quite energetically. She's already done most of the chapter, but I went back and edited quite a lot so I need her back. However, at the moment I'm unable to get in touch with her so I need a new beta! It's basically just spelling and grammar issues, along with any thoughts on pacing and the like. I know not many of you know the fandom in question, but that's okay because it's an AU and I'm pretty comfortable with my characterisation. I just need someone to spell and grammar check for me.

Any volunteers?

Here, let me help you. *offers hand* Holes are not a fun place to be.

You don't have to actually write stories to be part of this community, of course, but if you want to, I'm sure you could find some form of badfic that you could mock. What is it about them that upsets your stomach? Bad spelling and grammar? OOC-ness? Plotholes big enough to sink the Titanic?

PS - welcome! *quacks*

Hey, I said "something tall and blue."  That describes trolls as well, don't it?

In which there is SLASH.

Well, what did you EXPECT us to do? *innocent face*

Last part. Worst part. Involves Aslan. You have been warned.

What you thought was "i" may have been the end of "M".

Since I don't know what it looked like exactly, I couldn't say for sure.

Welcome, when you come to your senses and play Hoard side I would love to quest with you. I play on the Dunemaul server.

I play a healadin named Platus. Wanted to name him Plato but it was not allowed.

I have in fact read the OS.

*now attempts to dig herself out of this lovely hole*

What I was trying to say was that upon reflection, i'd be bad at writing PPC stories since I can't stomach badfics.

I was babbling about writing something separate from the PPC.

However, I still plan on following the PPC with a hikkikomori fanaticism.

Apologetically,
MsDuck

P.S - Thanks for the duck! :D

After all, that'd be a bit convoulted, heh.

Oh sorry, I think I dropped it somewhere.

Have an egg whisk! It's shiny, gold-plated, and whisks not only eggs but author wraiths and spambots, too! Use it for good and not evil.

Welcome!

but believe me, there were some.

And yeah, the plot ... needed work. Or, to put it another way, needed to be burnt at the stake.

hS is right, of course, as always.

... the PPC of course has no authority over anything claiming to be affiliated with it. Just to point that out.

And, hello!

Welcome to the PPC! Please deposit your sanity in the provided receptacle. *holds out bucket marked "Warg fodder"* We don't tend to have much use for it here. I'm sure you'll be quite happy here. If not, there's always brainwashing and torture.
Enjoy.

First of all, welcome, welcome, welcome. :) It's always nice to meet new people. My gift to you is a stuffed duck - use it wisely. Please feel free to leave your sanity at the door.

That said, crazy as we are, we have some rules of ettiquette that are considered rather important to follow. First off, I'm guessing by your exploding ducks and such that you've already read The Original Series? If not, please, go and do that right now. :) Also, have a look around the PPC Wiki - again, if you haven't already.

That said, it's good to see you're so enthusiastic, having two agents ready already, but you see, we have a policy that requires any writer to be an active participant on this board for at least a month before asking Permission - this link will tell you all you need to know. The main one is the month-long wait, and the point is that we need to get to know you before a senior member - a Permission Giver - can reasonably give you permission to write your own PPC stories.

So this really isn't the time to be starting new departments, let alone something that is only affiliated with the PPC. A deconstruction department would probably fall under Intelligence quite easily anyway, so there's no need to seperate yourself. Also there is already a Sub-Department of Rare Fandoms, which it sounds like your agents would fit into quite well.

I hope I haven't discouraged you. Please feel free to join in on any discussions, no matter how inane. We love to talk.

Cheers,

Because you'll need it to catch sleep at random times in random places. I trust that you've read The Original Series already? And had a look around the Permission section? Then you're all set. :) Welcome!
