may day writing exercises as gifts!
May. 1st, 2006 05:08 pmI've never done one of those 'the first five people to comment get a drabble' post but suddenly I feel moved to such a post! I am feeling grateful and generous, and I am also wanting to flex my writing muscles because, damnit, Cadman fic is good and wraith fic is fantastic but these are suddenly and scarily turning into real live fics, not writing experiments, and this means I am not posting. Also, I am not experimenting!
So, dear readers, I will give away some ficlet gifts. Not drabbles because I baulk at the constraint of 100-words-exactly (and disdain the misuse of the word 'drabble' to designate any short snippet of whatever length). But ficlettinos! Snippetlets! Yes!
The first five people to comment here will each get a snippetlet. Please provide the following:
• pairing with pics (can even be from a fandom I've never heard of; the pic will be my inspiration, *g* )
• style brief (that is, tell me something like: 'I want first person pov, present tense' or 'lyrical metaphorical' or 'Homer', or 'bad!fic', or whatever!)
:-)

Date: 2006-05-01 04:05 pm (UTC)I'd like an overt narrator, auctorial point of view and the focus to be on Lorne. (F.K. Stanzel) // An heterodiegetic narrator with Lorne as focalizer (G. Genette).
What for does one study linguistics and literary science other then fanfiction, eh?

Date: 2006-05-01 06:40 pm (UTC)Genette is rather easier to understand than Stanzel once you got beyond the word diegetic. Yes.

Date: 2006-05-01 05:23 pm (UTC)alright, i pick 'kyo kara moah,' which means 'king from now on.
here are the main characters:
[[l. to r.: gwendel, wolfram, konrad, yuri, and gunther]]
yuri and wolfram are engaged [it was an accident. regardless of frilly pink nightgown, wolfram is a boy, btw]:
but! in a previous life, konrad was in love with the late julia, whose soul now resides in yuri. there are some loving looks exchanged between the two, which causes wolfram to spazz out:
i would like an angsty konrad or wolfram pov please and thank you.
