    2014 MC FanFic Library Index

    I just clicked on a link to one of my stories, "The Death of Fraggle Rock," and it popped up in an external window in which I was not logged in. However, I remain logged in in the FFLI thread. Looking at the HTML code, I see this in line 733: <a...

    A little Fanart

    You have made the world a better place with fan art of Skeeter. And I rilly like the pic of Janice and Gonzo too. Keep up the great work! (And keep submitting 'em to DA groups I manage!)

    Let's Take a Stand:The Muppet Show Season 4 and 5

    How so? Have you paid them? Do you have evidence of a promise to funnel information to us in perpetuity? Just because you want something doesn't mean anyone owes it to you. Look, if Disney doesn't want to say anything to us, they're not going to say anything to us, period. Badgering those...

    Gasket rubber mouth

    I do my mouths a different way. I use adhesive-backed felt and simply stick it onto the rubber, then sew the lips through the felt but not the rubber. I use contact cement to glue denim to the backside of the gasket rubber, where the puppeteer's hand will be, just so the hand won't be gripping...

    What do you miss?

    I miss the time when people put up their own little fan pages rather than uploading their stuff to sites DeviantArt and Fanfiction.net instead, or using Facebook and Wordpress and its clones, or congregating on message boards. Sure, these things are fine, I use them myself. But it was neat to...

    Muppet fic: Once in a Lifetime

    'Nother little Easter egg: Grape Nehi was the drink that Radar O'Reilly always ordered at Rosie's Bar in M*A*S*H. It's your basic grape flavored soda pop.

    Huey, Dewey, and Louie would get that reference.

    Muppet fic: Once in a Lifetime

    I don't think so. I planned the Hard-Knock Life act from the very beginning, so when I needed a handful of girls' names I borrowed them from the orphans in the stage musical Little Orphan Annie. Here is a writeup of the original orphans. (I changed "July" to "Julie" because the original name...

    Muppet fic: Once in a Lifetime

    One thing about Fleet, in my stories at least: you can always count on him to act in his own self-interest. When he needs to pay the rent by writing a story, then he'll write one whether there's one to be written or not. He doesn't want to be seen by his editor as a one-trick pony, so he wrote...

    New Fraggle Rock Comic 2014

    He most exciting part of this writeup, for me, was that they would be telling a multi-issue story this time rather than a handful of four- to ten-page gags. The Fraggles live in a rich world, and I think there's a lot of room for longer, more in-depth adventures. As a fanfic writer I've tried...

    Most Unlikable Protagonists

    Light Yagami in Death Note. I haven't quite finished the manga yet (no spoilers please) but the father I get on the chillier, more manipulative, and more ruthless he gets. Power corrupts.

    Muppet fic: Once in a Lifetime

    I'm feeling sadistic, so here is the song Janken was singing in the final outtake, and the dance he was doing. I know this isn't the video that started it all, but it's the one I like the most. And I'm embarrassed to say I've viewed enough to have a favorite. (Sorry, Ed, if this doesn't show...

    Muppet fic: Once in a Lifetime

    I agree, We Didn't Start the Fire is a great Billy Joel song, even if Billy Joel would disagree about that. However, it's wall-to-wall cultural references, and Janken doesn't understand a word of it. "Blue Skies" is a Sesame Street backstage reference. C'mon, somebody's gotta know what that's...

    Muppet fic: Once in a Lifetime

    Aw thanks! I'm glad you liked this story, and how I portrayed Piggy. She's one of those characters I often have to pull back and think about. And now, here it is...the blooper reel! I hope I don't have to explain the song and dance in the final one. ***** Once in a Lifetime Part 21: The...

    Why isn't Skeeter a Muppet?

    Thank you! The highest compliment I could ask for is people mistaking my puppets for authentic Henson-made Muppets.

    Looking for a reference on a puppet maker!

    Muppet patterns can be backward engineered. It shouldn't be that difficult a task for an experienced puppet maker.
