"Being weird is like being normal, only much better."

Friend: Quick! You have to go save the world!
Me: Oh no, not while The Backyardigans are on!

Kit-Kale likes to watch old British sitcoms (like 'Are You Being Served?', 'Dads Army', 'Keeping Up appearances', 'Fawlty Towers', 'Mulberry', 'Good Neighbours', 'Beyond the Fringe', 'The Two Ronnies', 'Jeeves & Wooster', 'Father Ted', 'French & Saunders', 'To the Manor Born', 'Some Mothers Do Ave Em', 'Absolutely Fabulous', 'Monty Python', 'As Time Goes By', 'Rising Damp', 'My Hero', 'Chef!', 'A Bit of Fry & Laurie' and 'The Fast Show' mostly for the 'Ted and Ralph' sketches), and is also interested in a CGI children's show called 'The Backyardigans'.

In fact, I have made a blog that revolves mainly on the show. You can see it as my homepage.

I also like to watch 'Shrek The Third', 'Coraline', 'Dragon Hunters', 'Sitting Ducks', 'MacGyver', 'Fullmetal Alchemist', and 'Back to the Future'.

During my spare time I like to read (usually the 'Guardians of Ga'Hoole' series, or the 'Warriors' cat books) and speculate about what it was like to live in the Middle Ages as a knight (I love dragons and the Medieval times). My favorite computer game is 'Neverwinter Nights' (my favorite character in the game is Deekin, the kobold bard. He is so funny).

In case you don't know, my Avatar image is a picture of Austin & Uniqua from The Backyardigans episode of 'Caveman's Best Friend'. I like the AustinXUniqua, TyroneXTasha, PabloXOC pairing the best, even though some people are against it.

Other unofficial pairings I like:
EdXMalice (akaUrami) (OC)(from the Fullmetal Alchemist fanfic 'I Was Sent to Kill You'),
ArtieXKit (OC) (from my Shrek fanfic 'A Small Crime'),
GwizdoXCallia (OC) (from Callia's artwork: http://chaosartz.com/DragonHunters/Art/Cal.html) (from Dragon Hunters),
GwizdoXZoé(ponounced 'Zoey') (also from Dragon Hunters),
WybieXCoraline (from Coraline),
KhelgarXNeeshka(from Neverwinter Nights 2),
TedXRalph (from The Fast Show),
CooperXMarla (from Retail),
PabloXUniqua (also from The Backyardigans),
BoltXMittens (from Bolt), &
ZakXLydia (from Keepsake).

I drew a picture of the main characters of my fanfic 'A Small Crime' here: http://katy133.wordpress.com/art/ Just scroll down to the bottom of the screen.

I love getting reviews! :) They are greatly appreciated.

I apologize for sometimes updating slowly. I will never abandon a fanfic story, so just hang in there.

I am planning some other fanfics, so please be patient. Here is a list of them in order of priority (the top being the top priority). I don't want to give too much away, but I am making blueprints for the following:

10 More Backyardigan stories (Four of them are parodies)

1 More Dragon Hunters story (Misc. Movie)

1 Sitting Duck story (Misc. Cartoons)

1 Keepsake story (Misc. PC Game)

1 Dino Run story (Misc. PC Game)

1 Neverwinter Nights story (PC Game)

A note on writing:

Like movies, fanfics are finally, centrally, crucially, and primarily only about story.

This does not say that I don't care about how many special effects a film has, but you had better give a hoot about that Knight's adventures, his battle against his foes, you had better want him to win, you had better be locked into his travels by the seat of your shorts, or the fanfic is just waste of time which you could be using for other more meaningful tasks.

Fanfics must tell a compelling story or they stop existing in our minds. Stanley Kubrick (a popular director) once said this: "A good story is a miracle." By a good story he meant, oh, maybe something with an interesting premise that develops logically and builds to a satisfying and surprising climax.

Do you know how hard that is?

It just kills us, people who try to storytell for a living. We all want our readers to like our story, so that they wont turn away from us with the writer's equivalent of scorn, which is boredom.

That is one of the reasons why fanfics can be easier on us writers. We are expanding works that have been created by other authors, instead of trying to create an entire story from scratch, which is difficult. Not so much because there are so little choices to write your story about, but because there are so many choices.

Consider this: A piano keyboard consists of 7 notes (do, ray, me, fa, so, la, te, doe) that repeats itself several times, going higher and higher along the keyboard. Using these seven notes, composers have written hundreds and hundreds of different songs that can all be played using the same keyboard. Considering that, there are so many different things you can write a story about: Animals as the main characters, people as the main characters, etc. And so many genres that you can use: Fantasy, romance, humor, adventure, all of the above, etc.

So, what will your story tell?
