Author has written 14 stories for Due South, and Danny Phantom. December 9, 2006 I once swore I would never limerick again, but I've just suffered another attack from Nantukos, the evil muse of limerick poetry. It took me six days to summarize the Danny Phantom episode "The Ultimate Enemy" in sixty-one limericks. I've also added a "how to write limericks" page to my website. In happier news, I'm about to finish "Schroedinger's Anniversary." It's a great feeling to be writing again! Melanie (bluemoonalto) ooooo0ooooo November 27, 2006 I'm up to 27 episode reviews and 5 essays on my site. "Schroedinger's Anniversary" is finally coming together, though I'm fairly certain it's going to have very little popular appeal. How are people going to react to a story that has no plot? Melanie (Bluemoonalto) ooooo0ooooo September 12, 2006 Update: my website is growing! I now have fourteen episode reviews of my own, plus one from fellow author Victoria. I've added a soapbox page, where I will post essays and rants, and a "coming attractions" page for my fics-in-progress. I've started a forum on ff.net, called "Beta Readers Central." It's designed to be a place where authors in need of a beta can find one, or people who are willing to be beta readers can offer their services. Additional threads are available for discussions related to beta reading issues. Do stop by! Melanie (Bluemoonalto) ooooo0ooooo August 26, 2006 I just realized that some people have actually "visited" my profile, such as it was. . . which is to say, nothing at all. So I'll give at least some basic information about myself. I first came to Chicago on the trail of the killers of my father, and have remained. . . no, that's not right. That's the Explanation from Due South, my first fandom. I'm the Keeper of the Explanation, as well as Frannie's water pistol, and I have a modest collection of Due South fanfic to my name, some of which is archived here on fanfiction.net and all of which can be found on my Due South website (www.geocities.com/ifirstcametochicago). That site also has an episode guide, brain teasers and a few rants. I do love to rant. If you like my writing but don't know anything about Due South, try reading Chicago, 1968. It's a backstory for a minor character in the series, and a reader wouldn't have to know anything about the show for the story to make sense. It also happens to be my best work. Now I'm dipping my toes into Danny Phantom fiction, having recently discovered the series while channel surfing on a lazy Saturday. Now that I have two fics finished and two more on the back burner, I've set up a Danny Phantom website (www.geocities.com/bluemoonalto) with seven episode reviews so far (one in rhyme!) and my first Danny Phantom rant. If you'd like to contribute reviews for the site, please drop me a line! Thanks for visiting, Melanie (bluemoonalto) | |||||||||||||
