The PPC Posting Board - Latest posts

...so that I can take my hat off to the return of awesome people.

I suggested it as a possibility to Our Noble Volunteer. This one may or may not be worth it, though. She's kinda wimpy and unfortunately seems to be receptive to the 'Sue's advances. With some quite extensive re-training, perhaps. My Agent Tatharien was a fic recruit, after all...

What you've got so far is killer. It's scarily reminiscent of my List of Words that should not ever be used to describe bodies, body parts, and/or sexual situations.

This is going as #2, right under Windwalker, on my to-do list.

And I read PotterSues. *wince* Sithspit.

Therefor, I call Random Abhorsen (like a Random Elf character). Shenanigans...

My blessings on you. I'm pretty sure that it isn't a canon Abhorsen, actually. Probably some random historical Abhorsen (aka OC), so she should either be dispatched or recruited. She seems kind of incompetent, though, so it might be best just to kill her.

There isn't any sex or anything and I'm dubious as to whether the Abhorsen in question is intended to be Sabriel, Lirael, or an OC.

So I gave up on the NaNo aspect and just wrote as I usually do. My fic's only about fifteen thousand at the moment, but it's much better quality.

Are you sure? I don't think we can PPC parodies, so if you want to report it, better make sure.

That's sparky [at] cloud9nine [dot] net.

Fichunter, send me a message, saw your post about the multimailer and wanted to contact you.

But I have seen every episode. Why?

P.S. Can you help with my canon/bit character problem?

Even for a parody, this is too much.

I need Bleeprin now...

What's that?

You made my day. Thanks muchly. =D
Very nice. I liked weapons class. :P Do you know, I'd forgotten what weapon I picked for my fanbrat? I remember now, though.
Looking forward to more. =)

They're also called "plasma grenades" by those unaware of the tru7h. (7 very much intentional)

Those were the three people I'd come up with for the original Permission Givers. No wonder there's no room in my mind for studying and stuff like that, my brain's full of useless PPC trivia. :P

I think the PPC Board is an awesome--and usually untapped--source of writing advice, especially for something with established tradition, like an OFU. I just also think that if anyone's going to extend authority over OFUs to the PGs, it should be the illustrious Miss Cam herself, instead of us trying to place limits on something that isn't ours. Of course, I run everything I write past hS for approval, but, you know, that's because he's my husband. :P

The Ten (or however many, I know the PPC does get a little carried away with lists sometimes. XD) Commandments of OFUs sound like an excellent idea that would basically solve all of these issues. :D

Miss Cam was one of the first three PGs, along with Thalia Weaver and GreyLadyBast, after Jay and Acacia.

But I think one big thing is that a lot of OFU-writers are also PPCers. What I was trying to get across was that while OFUs are separate entities, it's usually a good idea to check out with other people first before going ahead, even if it's only to ensure that there are no blunders like creating more than one per fandom.

And when it comes to checking things out around here, it seems that a lot of people's natural instincts are to turn to the people who give go-aheads, e.g. the PGs. Admittedly not a great idea, but maybe from now on we can just give anyone looking to do an OFU the basic advice? The OFU Commandments, for example, or something entertaining but informative.

"Thou shalt credit Miss Cam for creating OFUs" etc. etc.

I'm rambling. *shuts self up*

Because Things Occurred.

Permission Givers were just for PPCings (I feel like Miss Cam was even one of the original PGs, but it's been a while, so I could be making it up). OFUs and the PPC are one in purpose, and there's a wide overlap in the respective fanbases, but we are separate.

I think the main thing about OFUs is that there should only be one per fandom. A lot of people were starting up more OFUs in LotR and Harry Potter, and it was not okay.
