    Love Reign O'er News

    Thanks all! As I said, I'm open to suggestions. I deliberately left a few teasers in there, which I might pick up on. No idea yet. Also, though I did post this under "art" I thought readers might like a like here as well. Drew this to illustrate the start of part 20...

    Love Reign O'er News

    Part 36 (the Last!) The doorbell rang. “Oh! Oh! Oh, Kermiiiiiee! Could you get that, and if it’s the caterers, get them started in the kitchen?” Kermit frowned, turning away from the tall windows, where the bright Saturday afternoon light promised a clear night for the Newsman’s official...

    My first Squeal of Fortune fan-fic!

    Hee, hee, hee, hee.... Just the idea of Animal on a game show cracks me up. He honestly wouldn't be out of place on "Let's Make a Squeal" ---er, "Deal", either... :)

    Fanfic: She learnt me to see

    Very nice so far! I like the idea of feeling tension in the hands; I have done some massage work (completely amateur, but experienced) and know how true that is: our bodies project a great deal of our inner mind. We just become adept at hiding it... And okay, I know it's technically...

    Love Reign O'er News

    Part 35 “Uh, hey, boss? I think Alice Cooper’s here,” Scooter said, tapping Kermit’s shoulder. Kermit swung around to see an attic’s-worth of bats fluttering into the ballroom. Sure enough, right after them strode a thin, darkhaired man with a well-lined face. When he saw Kermit, he broke into...

    Bierce is unfortunately only known for "Owl Creek", which was the first "Twilight Zone ending" story in American lit that I know of, but it ISN'T his best. Suggest you check out "Chickamuaga", "One of the Missing", "A Tough Tussle" (dumb name for such an amazingly fun tale), or "The D__d Thing"...

    The... -wait fer it-... "What made you laugh today?" Thread

    Was watching "PBS Newshour" and they had a story about the stripping away of the promised reforms of the Orange Revolution in the Ukraine. In an interview with the Ukraine's foreign minister, Kostyantyn Gryshchenko, he said, and I quote: "I don't believe that we have any authoritarian measures...

    Love Reign O'er News

    Part 34 At least, Kermit reflected, everyone would have one last hurrah, even though he doubted they’d be able to raise enough money to fix the theatre. He’d dipped deep into his and Piggy’s savings in order to rent the grand ballroom at the Sedgewick for the night. Scooter and Dr Teeth had...

    Love Reign O'er News

    ilovemusic, take your time. I'm just happy people are reading! I actually finished the rough draft of the final part of this story late last night, and already other story ideas are percolating through my fevered brain. I can't NOT be writing. I'm open to suggestions, too, from anyone, as to...

    BoomerangFish...you mentioned Bone. Now I have "Stupid, stupid rat-creatures!" jokes going through my head. :) GonzoLeaper: I like some classics. Dickens' "Mystery of Edwin Drood" is wonderful, even though he never finished it. I prefer Bierce to Twain; far more acidic and realistic, but I...

    Love Reign O'er News

    Part 33 “Ya know, without the glasses, he does kind of look like –“ “Shh! He’s waking up!” “Hey, Newsie? Newsie, ya in there?” With a soft groan, the Newsman tried to focus. To his dismay, he remembered his glasses were gone. Suddenly a small creature hopped onto his leg; he cringed, but...
