I'd be a chronicler. This would not compete with the Storyteller; I'd be the one making records of things for the future--stories, articles, illustrations--and she would still be the one telling tales. Heck, if she asked I'd illustrate her tales. Failing that, I'd be Fraggle Rock's first...

I was thinking of "The Honk of Honks" when I wrote the third chapter. That chapter had several working titles, including "The Chime of Chimes", which didn't have the right, heh, ring to it, and it would have been about as subtle as a sledgehammer. Another working title was "The Minds of...

I suppose it's OK, since the story is over and it's not drowning out on-topic conversation. I'm learning some interesting things here.

Wow, thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed the story so much! Heh, I like Boober a whole lot, and that's in no small part due to Sidebottom. I know he may come across as an annoying troublemaker, but I think of him as a corrective feature, working to pull Boober back into the light when he gets too...

Interesting. Looking at those typewriters, it seems that even Gonzo could use one, although his thumbs would have to double for both the keys and the space bar. Or he might use the same typing technique I do, which is "hit the keys with whatever finger happens to be handy." Out of curiosity...

Man, I miss the old Vaudevillian font. That chunky font makes me think of LOLcats.

Wow. I never learned that stuff. I just learned most of the basic alphabet. JoAnne told me that it got a lot more complicated, but she didn't go into the details. BTW, I "wrote" in Braille by stiffening paper with a piece of Scotch tape, then poking holes in the other side with a large...

Oh, I didn't mean that Boober neglected to say please and thank you. Rather, I think I kind of slighted Matt in the writing. I hardly showed his viewpoint at all, and mentions of him were mainly of the "He's trying, though it's bloody unlikely he'll do much good" kind. At that point every...

The Count: Ahh, audio books! My roommate made great use of those. I found out from her that a 4-track audio book machine would play regular tapes backwards if you switched on the right track. "They're Coming to Take Me Away, Ha-Haaa!" is positively nightmarish backward. It figures that English...

Yes, this story is finished. The premise I was considering for the fifth chapter--Sidebottom's creation--didn't pan out, as I decided there would be no one landmark event to show, but a long progression over time. He wasn't born, he developed for many years before surfacing. But I think the...

Thanks, I'm glad I caused you to neglect your education. I'm relieved to hear that characters seem to be themselves, as part of the reason I wrote this was to getto know the F5 a little better and to play with the family's dynamics. (And I wanted to dunk Red in mud. Mwaahaahaa.) If you're...

Here's a short, silly fic based on a conversation in the Slackbot Draws Stuff thread. There are a few illustrations for it there, even though at the time I didn't have a story to illustrate. Go figure. This takes place in the same continuity as my fics Masks, Trials and Tintinnabulations...

These comics are getting better and better. I could make tiny little nitpicks concerning the exact nature of Boober's "monsters" and Mokey writing a poem on an event that she was not supposed to know about--I can't get any more specific without getting into spoiler territory--but those are mere...

Last night I had a dream about Traveling Matt being searched very thoroughly at an airport. The searchers did find contraband: chips containing music by Jean-Pierre Rampal.* Matt had no idea they were in his possession; someone had probably used him as a mule, although the location of the...

Masks, Part Whatever: Outtakes by Kim McFarland ***** This is a genuine outtake. It was what I originally wrote for the Muppet Labs segment in part 6. It's not bad, but on rereading it I thought it was a touch out of character for Muppet Labs to try to invent something that might...

I could also see her as Columbia too, except for the hair. I doubt she could cram all those sausage curls under a wig.

A postscript for Masks: at the end of Masks Skeeter "invites" Scooter and Janken to go see RHPS that weekend. Me being a Rocky Horror cast veteran, I couldn't resist drawing a little something for the occasion. I hope that Skeeter's wearing a wig; I'd hate to think she did that to her own...

Puckrox: When you see Skeeter's hair I doubt you'll even look at her stockings. It rates an eight on the "holy crud" meter. As for Scooter, I think he'll pass on the costuming because the obvious choice is Brad, and I think he'd rather not be called... well, you know. But he'll have a good...

Thanks, I'm happy you enjoyed the ride! I have no idea what happens next, but I bet something will occur to me. It usually does. ;) Heh, I'm a RHPS veteran. I first performed in college in 1988 (I know, I'm so dang old) and have done, by my estimation, over 1000 shows since then. I'm not...

Fanfiction is all about experimentation, and considering some of the liberties I've seen taken---shoot, that I've taken!--eye color is no big deal. I'd say go for it. I gave Boober brown eyes, myself.
