WAIT! Don't trash this mail, not yet. I have something to say which you may
all want to listen to.
Oscar, at least in my opinion, deserves ridicule. He gives us bad fanfic
with bad plots and hackneyed devices, written without benefit of spelling or
grammar checkers.
Dr. Thinker, on the other hand, is perhaps less deserving. His works are
garbled to the point of being incomprehensible at times... but he has some
interesting ideas. He just expresses them badly, and therein lies the root
of his ridicule.
I was reading Megane 6.7's Christmas special... and laughing at the
awfulness of the fic, as usual. But somewhere, somehow, it ignited a spark
in my mind, and that spark has kept going...
The upshot of which is that, sometime around the end of summer, I will try
and show the FFML that what Dr. Thinker puts out is salvageable... by
rewriting "Sailor Moon Meets Father Christmas". It won't be EXACTLY the same
as before, mind you, but there will be more than a few of Dr. Thinker's
ideas in it.
I think my recent flood of spamfics has more than proven my ability to build
on what exists to create something new. (I've STILL GOT IDEAS! AAAAAA!) I
hope that, perhaps, I can lift a little of the stigma off Dr. Thinker's name
by filling in more than a few blank spaces and logical gaps.
And, to Dr. Thinker, if you're reading this... this isn't intended as
piracy, but as a tribute.
To the rest of you: No, I haven't snapped. I really have been turning this
idea over in my head since last March.
Until we meet again... >>sigh<< and until I post more adfics tomorrow...
