Fanfic release dates

[Reply #240 on:]

I can't wait to read it.  I really like the first one, but the girl defrostee still comes off as rather slutty to me.\

Edit:  I refuse to dance.

@ Farnsworth38: Hawt dawg! I look forward to reading part two of your take on the "Leela & Fry thing."

@ Fem Jesse:
<Zoidberg> What? You were born with two left claws, maybe?

I've started work, on "Cat-astrophe"... hopefully, I'll be submitting Chapter 1 soon.

[Reply #243 on:]

oh my god already? didn't you just start it yesterday? That's awesome!

[Reply #244 on:]

Let's hope it's not a cat-astrophe, then again it's Kryten fic so it won't be.

As Allen and Venus know, I've started on No Compromises Part II - 6 pages in already and it's still growing 

I've got another solo fic in the back of my mind called "Marriage Made In Hell", more details as I flash the idea out first.

[Reply #245 on:]

ooooooh intriging. i think my fic has like 11 pages so far. i wish i could write fast. and well.

[Reply #246 on:]

Catastrophe part 1 is up at FSAC and will soon be posted on ff.net.

[Reply #247 on:]

Catastrophe was awesome! Although as a cat owner i was pretty much guaranteed to like it. I just hope part two comes as quickly as part one!

[Reply #248 on:]

hmmmmm.....interesting.....

also, i helped edit longest journey home part two, and i say it is a very good fic worth while to read. i believe fansworth38 listed me as Gregoriev (my other alias, remember him from a while back?)

anyway, great fic, read it when you see it.

I've been working on chapter 2 of NMFAG for a while, and have had a lot of great ideas, but I've been having a little trouble with it.  It doesn't seem to flow for me like the last few chaps., and I'm unsure how to proceed, after having wrote my first 5 pages.  I'm considering maybe having it be a McChapter 2, and going from there, but I'm not sure.  Since the person on PEEL that normally reviews and edits my fan-fics is on vacation, could I get someone to volunteer to take a look at my opening part, and let me know if they think I'm on the right track, or should I start over in another direction?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

I've got a script, it's three acts, 24 pages long (22 minutes of airtime + 2 editable minutes of free animation per the audio commentary from season one). It's in script format. It doesn't have a major death or the love of Fry and Leela. It's mostly simple situation comedy, like Futurama usually is. With all of the grand universes I've been reading about, I'm beginning to wonder if mine will fly with other fans...

Anyway, when I'm ready to let it loose in about a week, what's the best way to do so? I don't have my own web site to link to, so what's the best thing to do to make sure it gets out there and that as many people can enjoy it as possible?

BTW, the script is titled "All Rodents Lead To Home." It will answer an age-old Futurama sight gag.

[Reply #251 on:]

Well this is not usually what i do but i am actually doing a Fanfic! well a little synopsis

A HALOWEEN NIGHT OF TERROR!(working title)

There is no Haloween in the year 3K but fry is trying to bring it back. would that be a good idea in the planet Hitchcok 13?


i may need help if anyone has time, i may finish it on the way back to Mexico

[Reply #252 on:]

I'm in a dilemma, whether to release NC Part 2 in stages or the whole kit and kaboodle at once which if anything like Part 1, could 40 odd pages.  Any constructive suggestions on best way forward, please.

[Reply #253 on:]

hey, will, i'm back!

FWIW, were it me, I'd release it all at once.

[Reply #255 on:]

Kryten, Catastrophe is fun!  I want to see the rest.  Did you base it on The Fly? 

I want a Bendersadilla.

[Reply #256 on:]

Due to personal circumstances, TLJH is going into stasis for a while. Apologies and thanks to everyone who has shown an interest: I&#8217;ll try and get back to it as soon as events allow. Keep up the good work guys and gals!

[Reply #257 on:]

I've decided to write a "new" solo fanfic, so please keep your eyes peeled for it  I say "new" because it's sort of new and it sort of isn't. Anyway it will be along soon.

[Reply #258 on:]

Hi Hil, it's great to see you again!   

[Reply #259 on:]

Nasteve, when you say 'soon' do you mean soon as in a few days? or soon as in a few weeks?

[Reply #260 on:]

I thought I'd ask this question, my fic will likely be 200 A4 pages long, or more!
So what I'm asking is: how would you prefer to read it? Currently it has no chapters (I follow Terry Pratchett's example - chapters now are almost completely alien to me) but would you prefer it cut up into segments or just read it all the way through?
Well hopefully it will be done soon. Currently I keep shooting myself in the foot by deciding to add whole new plot lines. Right now I'm trying to add a barely relevant story line of some children's ghosts that roam the Ural mountains (or Gruzoviks as they are called in my fic) crying at the sign of major conflict - it'll get explained later, if I keep it that is.
I personally think my story is about 82% done, after that, various lines need to be translated into Russian and several points "beta tested" as it were. Then, done! 

[Reply #261 on:]

i'd read it straight through, but since it's 200 pages most everyone else will want installments.

[Reply #262 on:]

Well Zed it sounds like a book!, i would like to see it in chapters cuz its better when somebody calls you or you have to go or something.

[Reply #263 on:]

if you cut it into segments you can start releasing parts of it now.

[Reply #264 on:]

i don't care, i just wanna read it!

[Reply #265 on:]

yeah i definitely think it has to be in chapters

[Reply #266 on:]

I wouldn't hope for it to take more than a week to finish. Part 1 has been submitted and I'd like to have it all finished in about a week.

[Reply #267 on:]

Zed... chapters. Seriously. 'Cause I wanna see this thing at some point.

[Reply #268 on:]

so start "publishing out"

[Reply #269 on:]

Khwell, um, I was talking with Teral and one of the things we both agreed is that we disliked serial fan-fics - the other thing is that I've re-written entire sections of the earlier parts, months after I first wrote them. I want the story to be absolutely perfected before I release any of it - though I could always release a Beta version I suppose? 

[Reply #270 on:]

So its still gona be a while?

[Reply #271 on:]

AFAIK there's nothing to stop you from uploading a "new, improved" version replacing the old one.

[Reply #272 on:]

could be how bout that Zed?

[Reply #273 on:]

Hmm, what I've done is converted it into "Acts" with sub-chapters. So I might release it in Acts, and have Chapters to break up the length of the pages.
Act 1 is technically complete, though I may well revisit a few places here and there. Act 2 is fully written but needs to be checked and translated. I really wouldn't like to do a version 0.9.9 if you know what I mean though.

[Reply #274 on:]

well seeing this for another point of view take your time, i wouldnt like to read a half finished fanfic

[Reply #275 on:]

go and fucking get your act together, wu_konguk, and finish your bloody fic! This is getting to the ridiculous stage.

[Reply #276 on:]

alright alright there is no need for that

[Reply #277 on:]

expect A Birthday Surprise to be up at fanfiction.net in about 24 hours.

I'll get it to FSAC soon as well.

[Reply #278 on:]

ohhhh hil author??

Alerted by this, an alien intelligence agency realise that Turanga Munda and Morris might still be alive, and form a plan for their capture, which involve kidnapping Leela.

"Xenophobia" (working title)

• [Note: A sequel to "Curse...", still ignoring "Leela's Homeworld" revelations, although I could probably change it easily] A secret society of human powerbrokers determines that Earth must be purged of 'freaks' like mutants and aliens.  The consensus in the organization is that the freaks be relocated to a colony on the Moon (which will 'unexpectedly' depressurize).  Anti-relocation protests turn deadly as SAF Division 8 is attacked by a riotous mob.  Can the Planet Express crew expose the upper-level conspiracy surrounding the plan and save non-human life on Earth?

ok, i was reading through the first handful of pages and i refound these discriptions of fics that i was especially interested in, and i wanted to know whether any of them where still being worked on? Oh and Kryten, are you still going to write "but what i really want to do is direct?"
