Reply Subj: That's probably them amortising their fees.

Quote:

Literary critics can be so harsh.

Particularly if they're related right?

Quote:

I blame my typing. Also weird Microsoft keyboard shortcuts I've never heard of.

Yes, but who put them there? And who was replicating your fingers to type that way? You know who.

Quote:

I imagine the team will remain the same if I write it again, with possible additional Yo since he/she turned up for the clean-up and the poster was active too.

I am rather partial to this line up. Yo is always nice to have for the...nice.

Quote:

I'm sure [HH] has [Amnesia's] bones, if that helps.

But where? In a special chest hidden in a secret chamber? Ground down into dust and put in a vase on the mantle? Under his pillow? (wait - does he even sleep?) Please don't feel you need to answer any of these questions.

Quote:

I hadn't planned to shift the Hooded Hood across to my novels at all. And then the Epilogue to The Transdimensional Travel Company just happened.

Excellent!

Quote:

We have an origin of sorts for the Hood, but none yet for Herringcarp.

Indian burial ground. Or pre-cataclysmic serpent-men burial ground, or alter to Set.

Quote:

What I need to go back and check sometime is whether I made a continuity error with Marie. She became human during the Parody War but was murdered again during Saving the Future and returned as a more sentient banshee at that time. I'm not sure I've been consistent in the stories I just posted in remembering whether she was phantom or human.

Maybe she got un-bansheed in all the retconning and it stuck.

Quote:

I also found some books she'd filled with poems and stories that i never knew she wrote.

You're not the only writer in the family?

Quote:

I discovered my paternal grandfather's World War I bayonet.

That's awesome, you can frame things like that along with his photo if you have one, and any medals, and stick it up on the wall. I love that kind of thing.

Quote:

The Amazons are trying to get free.

Quote:

That should be interesting.

I'm imagining Amazons running amok through Parodiopolis now.

Quote:

If you need to do a different 3rd child then go for it. I'm happy to eliminate Kyza as a temporal anomaly.

Nah, all good.

Quote:

Yes. I also wanted to lay out much of the Hood's scheming interconnectedness in-continuity.

Well laid out. He certainly has been a busy arch-villain.
