Stop listening to modern music... you've gotta listen to some Who, Byrds,
and maybe a >little Skynard!
Slappy: what's the name of the band on stage?
Skippy: Who
Slappy: The band on stage!
Skippy: The Who
Slappy: WHAT'S THE NAME OF THE BAND ON THE STAGE!
Skippy: I *TOLD* You aunt Slappy, WHO'S on stage
Slappy: THAT'S WHAT I'M TRYING TO FIND OUT!
(ok, so it's not even close, but it's as much as I remember fro mthat
Animaniacs Skit :)
The other thing bugging me is that I can't write script.
I have only written plays in the past, but for some reason
Ranma requires prose for me. Meh.
What's wrong with prose? I find that script is usually very jerky and
disjointed. I like the easy flow of prose and the mesh between action and
description
Prose is better, IMHO...but then, I've read about 1000 novels since I
learned to read, and until I started reading fanfics, never saw much of
anything in script form...I might be kinda biased, but I still think prose
is better, and will until I see some EXCELLENT proof otherwise...and no
offence to the writers of the good script-type fanfics I've read (There
really aren't all that many, actually) I haven't seen any great examples of
that yet.
