"Little Brown Fox" wrote:I suppose you could. Typos are a lot of fun sometimes, though, you gotta admit. :lol:

Also, remember when I told you that you had a "spacing problem" in your first story? I never did look to see what you did to try and correct it; what I was trying to tell you, though, is that it's all one big, long story. There are chapters, sure, but FF shows it as one big chapter. Your other stories avoided this problem, but this one in particular still registers as one whole thing; no chapter count.

Also, I've been meaning to ask: what exactly IS a pastiche? I think that I can gather an inferred definition, or at least part of one, but I like being sure. (Reading Comprehension: my forté. ^-^; )


Actually, I did go back and repost the first story after fixing the spacing issue. I now know better. :lol: Also I should have broken it up into chapters using the tools on FF, but what I had done was to upload an existing single document file containing the entire story. The later works were done a chapter at a time and uploaded to FF that way. Again, I could re-edit and re-submit the first work. I'd actually like to break that one up into TWO stories as the first part with the bio background of Tenamann could (and maybe should) be a prequel.

A pastiche is like a parody except that it celebrates rather than mocks the work it imitates. I'm probably not using the word EXACTLY in the way it is intended, but it was the closest description I could find to what I was doing. IE: I'm not using the same setting or characters (except for Astro, and Tenamann is sorta like Tenma, I even made the name similar). Sorta like Starwars is a kind of pastiche of Buck Rodgers, if you see what I mean.

... I dunno what- or who- Buck Rodgers is. But, I think I get you now. And a parody doesn't neccesarily have to burn the subject matter it was based upon, anyway. It's more like a setting most of the time.

Btw, how're your plans for #27 going along? Have you written anything down yet?

I started a first chapter, and wrote some notes to myself as far as plot highlights and some details. Nothing really concrete yet, but I do have some good ideas. Some of it is sorta based on the "brother Jetto" episode (as the #27 'bot wakes up in a confused state and wanders about trying to figure out who he is and where he belongs). I still have most of my neurons working on the current story, but I've got #27 and a few others in the background.

What I did write down in the first chapter also lays out the possibility of something else in Atom's future that might not fit well with some people, but would be welcomed by others. (I bounced it off AprilSeven and she really liked it). It has to do with Atom being able to 'grow up', which I already hinted at (he is now about a half foot taller in the current story than at 'birth').

Oh and 'Buck Rogers' is an old movie serial that ran in the '30s. Sometimes it shows up on the 'grave yard' TV stations at 2AM. I bet you can find clips on Youtube. Daffy Duck did a parody of it as "Duck Dodgers in the 25 1/2 Century"

Chapter 8 of Dragon Rider is up.
I probably won't get to posting another update till late next week due to family plans.
(It will be worth the wait).

Very good in many ways and sometimes cliffhangers are very good.

I'm working on what will probably be the last chapter.
This one might be a FAT one. How many ways can you honor a returning hero?
