  1. Consarn it! Now I am the most recent poster in this forum again! I was trying to avoid that, heh... As for appropriate forums, while a whole lot of things can be discussed here the other suitable forum would have been the 'Aimless Babble' forum, which is the off topic forum for the site. I'm not suggesting that this topic is babble, that's just the name of the off topic forum. Still, getting chat going in the mystery forum is a noble endeavour. It makes it even more mysterious! [/insert insane laugh here] Regarding The Stand: I must confess to having been deliberately silly. What happened was that the first time I read The Stand I read the original version, and then a relative lent me the expanded edition that Mr King released later on with pages and pages of extra material. I thought the expanded version to be superior, which just goes to show that editors don't know everything! So, the books I've read... (There are possible spoilers here, which I’m noting as just because some of them are really old doesn't mean they are not new to someone!) Most recently, I read Under the Dome, which has very little to do with evil external forces beyond the setting up of the plot, and relies more on how basically good and bad people react to the situation. Even the external force behind the plot is presented as no more necessarily evil than kids crushing bugs. Bit of a take that to anybody who's smashed a wasp really. I'm very much a bee person myself though. The best bit was how the bright little farm kid who survived through ingenuity. I can't check his name because funnily enough I gave it to the same relative who loaned me The Stand after reading it. On that note, the only book by Mr King I've actually kept is an omnibus edition of The Bachman Books, because my favourite of all his stories is The Long Walk which was originally published under the Bachman name (along with The Running Man, which is very different to the Arnie movie. Both have good points going for them). The Long Walk is such a simple idea – 100 teenage boys have, no, volunteer, to walk without dropping below three miles an hour more than three times, and get shot if they do until one is left; but the physical and psychological toll wears on walker and even almost on reader! Also, despite having an effectively all male cast it would be a real challenge to make a PWP fanfic for it. Hard to jerk your bf off without getting shot for slowing down! Besides the Running Man, the other two in the collection aren't so great. Oh, a guy doesn't want a road built. He's angry. Yeah, Chilling. The Different Seasons novellas are more consistently good. Rita Hayworth and The Shawshank Redemption, The Body (movie was made as Stand By Me) being the best two, but Apt Pupil and the The Breathing Method are good tales as well. I think Breathing Method hasn't been made into a movie while the other three are good movies! The Breathing Method is a good story about the strength of an expectant mother who is gonna have her kid no matter what. The Shawshank Redemption made a fantastic movie, too. Some of the movies based on Mr King's work have been a little crap (to be blunt!), such as Sleepwalkers or The Langoliers. And some are just brilliant. I never saw The Stand miniseries, but I've been told it was dire by two people - they might have just really really enjoyed the book more! I tend to prefer Mr King's shorter stories/novellas, the Night Shift collection was the first book of his I ever read, with some real stand out stories like Children of the Corn, Night Surf (which was related to The Stand, kinda) and this one about the bogeyman that actually almost scared me. I'm also pretty sure I've read the Skeleton Crew collection, although the only story I can recall from it is Word Processor of the Gods. I've also ready Misery, Carrie and Christine... quite why I managed to pick up three that were named after female characters I couldn't say. I thought the book of Misery was better than the movie, but unlike most examples of this I thought the movie was very good as well. Fantastic acting. I can't recall any more I've read off the top of my head. I know I've seen a few more adaptions for TV such as It, Needful things, Maximum Overdrive (great soundtrack), the others already mentioned and possibly more. In truth I've not read a great deal of Mr King's work, but he appears to be phenomenally fast at putting the stuff out. From the sounds of it I've read less than you! If I see one in the second hand rack I'll pick it up and see if I fancy it. 11/22/63 sounds like one I'd read. I like a bit of time travel.
  2. I'm really more Blood Hungry. Specifically, Blutwurst, blood pudding etc etc... mmmm....
  3. Review on Corinthian Knot, a oneshot with 13097 hits and now seven reviews! Yay! Thanks for your review, glad you liked it!
  4. http://buffy.adult-fanfiction.org/story.php?no=38029 http://buffy.adult-fanfiction.org/story.php?no=33917 Descriptions are different but first chapters are the same. Odd one!
  5. If that's the only part of Wes's bodily waste facial that doesn't make sense, I'd be happy to let it slide from a porn perspective. Could drop the -ish part and go full PWP! I guess the problem with my requests is that they rarely make any more sense from a character or logic perspetive than any of my actual writing, being entirely "Would that be kinda hot? Yeah! Can I write it? Apparantly not. To the forum!"
  6. I know same-sex marriage has been legal a few years - the current Prime Minister has such a marriage.
  7. http://stories.xnxx.com/support/ Gonna try an email to the address here too. Funny really, the story thief's name is SnuffingShadowcat but he didn't steal the request story I did about a buncha stereotypes doing that.
  8. Yeah, looks like not giving a shit is their site owner's order of the day. Ahh well. Thanks anyway.
  9. Recognised both of his other stories! The story he has posted as "death of Lara Croft" is actually the writer Deathstalker's Lara Croft's Undead Lover, posted to the Grey Archive on (16-Jul-02), no direct link to that, but also on literotica on 08/28/03: http://www.literotica.com/stories/memberpage.php?uid=243515&page=submissions And the mass effect one is on AFF as Mass Effect: Good Times by AlexandraS90 and was taken two days after posting here, though I vaguely recall the author posting it on gurochan's lit forum first... (based on my review there referring to "my original review!") http://members.adult-fanfiction.org/profile.php?no=1296896652&view=story&zone=games&page=2 Based on the user's reply to my thread on the forum tho, looks as if little will be done by the site. Could just be me being negative tho! Edit: Thanks for other reports!
  10. Thanks for report, and help with this. Also will check other stories and see!
  11. it's happened again to me! http://tv.adult-fanfiction.org/authors.php?no=1296777934 My story "kill o gram" uploaded to AFF on 2010-07-01 has been uploaded to another site under a different title on 2011-03-13 http://stories.xnxx.com/story/30989/Death_of_Amy_Pond ...and got more reviews! BAH. will try and complain. The report box is V small on story page, so tried that and qeueried on their story forum: http://forum.xnxx.com/showthread.php?t=325346 (JD/JayDee varients all taken! had to register under one of my old OC's names!)
  12. Please write a oneshot PWP-ish story where Wesley had cause to take Justine's bucket away prior to recovering Angel, but didn't want to get his closet dirty so laid underneath where she knelt to catch the mess in his mouth. ...yeah, this is why I don't make requests often. It's alright, I'm used to being judged. Thanks for considering this and please link here if you do it.
  13. I've written some few things without any thought at all - that was the best stuff.
  14. Good idea for a thread I decided to try my hand at making a few of my own using google image search, a make your own demotivator site also found through said monolithic search engine, and the last guttering shreds of my creativity: http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c166/JoanDoePictures/DM-Crufts.jpg http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c166/JoanDoePictures/DM-Leela.jpg http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c166/JoanDoePictures/DM-shipping.jpg http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c166/JoanDoePictures/DM-SWD.jpg http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c166/JoanDoePictures/DM-Oface.jpg http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c166/JoanDoePictures/DM-Mel.jpg I don't actually have any of other folks's efforts.
  15. Douglas Adams' involvement in Dr Who makes it a good little reference - I think he even recycled one or more of his unused scripts into a later Hitchhikers book
  16. I'd say No Way, and then run like hell. Of course, that's because I'd be worried he'd read my Dr Who fanfiction and have a 'Family of Blood' style fate in store for me. That blackhole is crowded enough already. Of course, if this was some sort of thing where I hadn't written said fanfic and he wouldn't find out, it'd have to be a towel. You always need a towel. Sometimes more than one, though 42 would be excessive.
  17. *clicks fingers, sips coffee*
  18. Review for Jenny From The Pond , a story with no sex, no in-story death, and possibly, a too-cute tourist. I kinda want to do a sequel where agricultural hormones washed into the pond by mistake make Jenny horny and some poor bastard gets seduced.... Story has over 450 hits, which I find mildly impressive given the whole nosex thing. Thank you for your review! It was fun tryna paint worthwhile pictures with the word prompt limits. Tried to get back into a few've 'em but nothing came of it. Thanks again!
  19. You have to scroll down some for the Pokemon subsection: http://anime.adult-fanfiction.org/main.php?cat=27 There's a few hundred stories so I imagine at least one of them has Ash getting pregnant from Pikachu or however it works!
  20. No love for South Korea's Psy and his Gangnam Style?
  21. I'd totally give users $10,000 for a review! OK Folks, review any of my stories that doesn't currently have a review for an extra 10000 utterly worthless totally fun and cool points next to your forum username!
  22. ...ok, so if I ever did the Ending the Fan prequel about Moz's early days, I'd totally call it Before She Was Shameless and toss in every cliche I could think about. Including a vampire. I have the damn plot idea worked out. There's alchemy! And a nice piece of cheese! And far too much punctuation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Dammit, write damn me JD. Write.
  23. Like I said, was just definining why I did it!
  24. Fucked in the head, I except. Some sorta severe serotonin deficiency perhaps. Looks out into bright happy smiling hot sunny days in the world and sees desolation and a race bent on self destruction and the fucking up of the poor majority by the obscenly rich majority. Messed up loser scumfuck who oughta be exterminated. Get some kinda sick pleasure from trying to engender visceral reactions of disgust and revulsion in their audience, maybe even enjoy the flames. Exposed to horror stories at a young age and had 'em imprinted on the psyche. Watership Down's rabbits had it tough. No desire to hurt anybody else, but find writing helps feel better sometimes, whether gory splatterbang or just warm and fuzzy. That's just me, of course. Only me. You with the pen and the hatchet quit getting all offended. I'm sure the others who've dabbled in dismemberment fiction are all lovely well balanced people you'd be quite happy to take home to Mother. Stephen King, I think it was, did a very good essay on the nature of writing and reading horror and such. Undoubtedly there's a few other things on it as well.
