Multiverse 2005

Well, Multiverse 2005 has been up for a day. I got a nice story. There has been much reading of fic, which I will then forget to review because by the time the authors have been revealed, I will have forgotten what I wanted to say. Oh well, at least I've been sending feedback to the authors.

Which brings me to the whiny part of this post: nobody whatsoever has commented on my story at all. (whine whine whine)
Not even one single comment. I would have thought I'd get one comment at least. Maybe three comments if I was lucky. But not even one?
Not even a comment from the person I wrote the story for? C'mon, it can't have been that crappy!

Propelled By A Single Oar

I have just finished reading "Ascending" by James Alan Gardner, which brings back the character of Oar from the first book in his series, "Expendable". It is, in fact, narrated by Oar, and that's half the fun. She is childish, vain, ignorant, egotistical, naieve, well-intentioned, and indeed, quite pretty, if one considers a completely transparent human-like being to be pretty.

So my brain, thinking about this and Multiverse, realized who would make the perfect match for Oar. Cat, from Red Dwarf. Absolutely perfect. (giggle)
Except that she would probably consider him ugly, because he is opaque. And he would consider her unfashionable, because she doesn't wear clothes. So maybe it wouldn't be a perfect match after all. But it would be very amusing, anyway.
