Sythar and I are very very happy to present the forum we're starting as something of a Les Miserables writers' support group. We want the board to be a friendly place for writers, especially newer writers, who want a little thoughtful style/technique concrit before posting their work elsewhere - kind of like having a whole bunch of beta readers, but with tea and cookies. You can also get critique on canon/IC, but you do have to ask for it specifically. The biggest rule is no flaming allowed - and we will happily whack all flamers with the ban stick in order to maintain an open and amicable atmosphere for everyone on the board. Since neither of us has the resources to devote to a full-fledged board of our own right now, we're setting up shop in the back room of our RP group's general board, a rather nice arrangement for all concerned. (We're always looking for anyone interested in playing Deadlands Classic!)

If you follow Captain Scaramouche, this is the place you want to be. I'm putting up a sidefic or two soon that will hint at things to come in the sixth story arc, and we'll both be posting cool stuff to do with the CS-verse in future. You're going to hear it there first, amis.

OT: I JUST FINISHED MGS3 AND OH MY GOSH THAT ENDING. ;_; Liek woah. There's a comic or two coming out of that. I was going to go on to Portable Ops next 'cause I'm playing through them in chronological order of setting, but I got frustrated with the PSP controls half an hour in (most of which was cutscenes, mind you) and Ninten just walked me through the rest of the plot before setting me up with Peace Walker. He made me come to all my own conclusions about who was double-crossing whom, though, and I must say: mind. Blown. READ ALL THE HISTORY.

There's probably also material for a couple comics about how well Ninten's gameplay mentoring works on me...I often end up completely surprising him by claiming victory very quickly, in a totally different way than he did.
