abuseOh Em Gee, DH. I think Emma-Leeza wrote the Sue in "Carrie Lu". The only thing is, on occasion- she sounds like me. O.O Fortunately I know better than to profane dear Jack's works with that side of me.
Keep up the good work! One day, the world will be free to read good fanfiction in peace and harmony!

Petraverd- I think you got him spot-on, 'cept that I'm not sure he would've relented and let Emma ride. He mighta slowed down, but... I don't know. "DON'T TOUCH THE HORN!" Perfect. He keeps downplaying his superior mind on the forums, but I suppose when faced with someone like that, there's just no denying it. :-)

Eagerly looking forward to the rest!

abuseDH, this is brilliant! I was in laughter the entire time. Petra is so perfect - I feel so sorry for him!! ("Petra-fied"! :D)It's perfect, absolutely hilarious and very well suited to your writing style. The TLC cast is absolutely brilliant, too! Just glancing at the credits before reading it and seeing the roles cast in there got me hooked immediately.

Very well done, hilarious, extremely creative and overall fascinating. Terrific job, DH!

abuse" “They weep for their fandoms,” said the Ghost, answering Smooge’s unspoken question. “They weep because they wish to go back and start over; to write good fan fiction that honors and respects the fandoms they love. But it is too late for them, now. They have lost that power forever.”
Smooge had a strange, nagging feeling in the back of her mind that maybe all this had something to do with her. But of course, she didn’t have the sense to heed it. "

This line always cracks me up. There are so many other lines that made me laugh, I couldn't write them all here.

As Smooge would say, i liek lurv this story!!1 Plz update soon!1!!

abuse*reaches for the anti-snerk meds* As Petra said, you really /do/ know him too well ;). Other than the very few grammar/spelling changes that have been pointed out, my only suggestion is to keep going in the direction you're headed. True parody borrows enough from the original to make it recognizable. You do realize that you inspired me to begin my noir, don't you ;).

I can't wait to meet my own Carol alter ego, and I feel sorry in advance if Catchitt has to edit Smooge's despicable fanfics. Blech. That would make me wish that Petraverd hit /me/ over the head with the OED, or at least the canon.

abuseThis is amazing. I see a few grammatical errors, and I think that you could stand a little more description about the surroundings, but I really like this. You seem to have perfectly nailed down the idea most of us receive when we accidentally stumble upon fics like...Um, Smooge's...and I think it's a nice message, too. It's funny and you can relate to characters like Petraverd (especially when he's hitting people with books. Someone had to do it... ^^"). It's also good to see some backup on exactly WHY the fangirl starts to think--Little Lynn with cancer, and Joy dying of cancer hit home to Smooge and we could see that. I hardly ever find backup plots like that anymore..e.xcuse the term, of course. ^^"

Anyway, I think you're a genius. I'll wait as long as need-be for the update! Can I borrow Jackie's flaming pen, please? My brother (who is also ten-years-old...odd...) won't stop bugging me...o_0 nevermind. I'll ignore him...or give him what he wants, or something...Oh well. XD Until the next chapter!

abuseThis is brilliant! Seriously, everything from her name--the summary made me laugh: Emma-Leeza Smooge! Perfect--to the poster of William Mosby, er, Moseley turning into Barley--to the description of Emma-Leeza's story...

I liked this part:

"Of course, an ordinary girl with at least half a brain would be thoroughly ticked off by now. But not Smooge. Instead, she stopped dead in her tracks and instantly went into Fangirl Mode."

And her brother's 'blindness' was perfect, too--I could see the whole interaction there playing out just like a movie.

My favorite line, though, was this one:

'“Likewise, dearest brother,” said Smooge, her voice practically dripping with Splenda.'

Splenda. Splenda! Whodathunk?! It's brilliant!

I shall most definitely be reading & reviewing the next chapter and all forthcoming ones.

abuseVery funny! Anyone who doesn't know who C.S.Lewis deserves to be wacked on the head with his books. (Or rot in hell - whatever you wish to call it.)

abuse*burts out laughing* DH! This was MAGNIFICENT! I'm POSITIVE our dear Petra LOVED it. "Now hurrty up before I change my far-superior mind." Made me laugh SO darn hard. Putting Petraverd in a story and making him in character probably is NOT easy by any means, but its worth it. No joke. DH, this was magnificent, I must say, so update soon! :D
Keep your pen Sharp!
