Yuletide madness

[girlyswot]

There are some brave, brave people out there.

67 people have offered to write Hamlet fic.

Perhaps even more impressive, there are 10 people who think they can write Umberto Eco's Name of the Rose fic.

And mind-bogglingly, 3 people think they can write Augustine's Confessions fic.

103 people have offered The Princess Bride, though only 5 have requested it. I wonder if they've read the book, because that style is not at all easy to pull off. Movie-fic might be slightly more manageable.

I am squeeing that two people have offered (and two requested) Posh Nosh fic, and I'm really hoping at least one gets written.

I think it's pretty funny that there are Mina de Malfois fic requests.

There are good numbers for Lost in Austen, so I'm hopeful there'll be some fic there.

The Antonia Forest numbers are pretty low, which is sad. I hope there will be at least one or two fics there, but it's possible there won't be. :(


Assignments out tomorrow!!

Augustine's Confessions fic
My mind, it boggles. Perhaps they are hilarious sitcoms about the binmen in the City of God?

I am afraid that I enjoy reading Antonia Forest fanfic, but have no intention of ever writing it. The Wimsey numbers are _very_ good, though.

I know. I don't know which is weirder - people requesting it, or people offering to write it.

*sigh* Oh, well. It's sad because I'd really love some Players fic, but only one person has offered it so I guess I know I won't be getting any.

I'm boggled about the Princess Bride numbers too. They must mean the film, don't you think? I mean, I think I could do pastiche S. Morgenstern but I really don't think I could do pastiche William Golding.

At least the school Marlow books are off the 'needy fandoms' list, which is something.

I can't wait for my assignment!

Yes, I expect it is the film. Though I'd be madly impressed if someone takes on the book and pulls it off.

Me either!

Sorry, just saw "Lost in Austen" here in your post. I'm from Germany and can't enter the BBC website. I would love to see this show but don't know how. Do you know?

No.
