This post was inspired by a letter I read last night on the list from 
Nigel M (The writer of eight day's a week) . He basicly wrote a letter 
that said he wanted comment's (BTW Nigel I enjoy your fic , I espically 
liked the basketball game...Can you do a hockey game too) on his 
eight day's a week fic . And this got me thinking ,

Well, the B-ball game was stuck in there 'cause me and Nigel are basketball
addicts, severely.  We get together and cheer/jeer during televised games.
Aaand... we gave some thought as to WHAT R 1/2 character would best be at
which spot.

  There's one thing we agreed on:  Ryoga would be one kick-ass power forward.

as for Hockey, well, maybe in a future side story.  The Big Wrapup is
in production, and Nigel is sending Mr. Hentaii off with a bang.

And I've got some schemes for Mr. Hentaii too...

I want comment's on my 
Fanfic's too (although there is nothing there worth commenting about...) 

Right.  I finally found the ones you wrote.
One of them was "Be Careful What You Wish For" right?
A good concept, but I think I need to go back and read parts 1&2
cause I feel a bit lost at part 3.

The other one was "Love in September" right?
Hm...
I'll admit, it's an interesting and entirely new direction to take.
Very fresh idea.  It kinda bugged me, however, that Akane didn't show
much conflict between Ranma & Shampoo (if ya start making her say
"I cannot decide - I shall have both!" then I'll start to wonder...)
but then again I haven't read the latest re-write yet...

The more thing's change....By RPM
Great fic that's funny , through , and is suprisingly orginal . 
A great Ryoga fic , and waiting to read the sequel (I will do that 
Saturday) .

Read it yet?

I probbably changed something already anyways.  I had another look at it
recently and decided to retool a few things.  The post-mortem scene is
removed and I'm trying to make the villian a man of fewer words.

Anyways, the whole writing tehcnique that I'm using in the sequel is,
even by my standards, a bit weird.  How so?  Well.. I've got a full rough 
draft of the prelude, part 1-1, 1-2, 3-1, and 3-2.  I've got roughly half
or less of part 1-3, 2-1, 2-2, and 3-3.  And every time I retool one chapter
I gotta go around to make sure continuity is clean.

Nigel, he just scribbles ideas on paper.  I just had to type everything out
as it hit me.

As life goes on By Izzy-chan 

At least I think that's a title . Anyway a good evolution by 
Izzy-chan and an intresting story . Ukyou could be in for some emotional 
therapy at the end of this one ..(What do you have against the Ranma 1/2 
female cast you kill them , you make them evil , and now you send them 
to emotional thearpy :) ) 

y'know, now that ya mention R 1/2 members going crazy...

I'm getting an idea... murders... schizophrenia... suspense... hm...
dead parents... murdered martial artists... a rash of slain transvestites...

hm...

Tsubasa:  Madness
A Ranma 1/2 story

sounds good... sounds good...
now if only I could finish the two other fanfics first....
and soon...
