Hey Pettins! What a great first fic! Humourous and a little wistful I’d say. I hope Sam manages to wander down Tangent Alley often :)

I think this is one of the lighter entries, very much appreciated.
I rather liked the personification of Society and all that, and yet our friend Sam seeks out a way to go off on tangents.

Thanks for entering!

Excellent first Boo oops I mean Ficly. Nice to see a lighter style here, lots of serious folk here sometimes :)

Thanks for the feedback guys – Really encouraging.

Next I need to pluck up courage to write a prequel / sequel. It seems a bit presumptious but I guess if I start with one of yours then I should be in safe hands…:-)

Feel free, if any of mine are good enough. I really am not a writer, but I am trying this. It’s the first time I have ever done any writing. But yes feel free. :-)

Thanks ernmander.

Great to know I am not alone. I feel like an absolute novice at this. It is really liberating to write something and then even better to get feedback.

What with ficly and audioboo / audiobooth, the creative juices are getting a good work-out :-)

Totally agree with you there Pettins. Nice to have a writing novice here with me too :)

I think you both are doing great jobs. As for the nervousness at prequeling/sequeling someone else’s story, my advice? Get over it :) most writers here are thrilled when someone chooses their work to expand on. Trust me :) It’s ok, give it a go :)

Yep, good advice Melia :-)

I’m off to pick another story to prequel / sequel :-)

Funny little allegory for the creative nonconformist. Hope you find this a haven for brief inspiration. I will also echo that pretty much every author is thrilled to see a sequel or prequel tagged onto their stuff. If you’re still at all hesitant, then stick to one-shots, stories that only have one installment thus far. That’s a 99.99 percent guarantee that they’ll be happy with an addition.

This is very interesting indeed, especially considering that much of my thinking processes jump from one place to another frequently. I go about unsure of what I want or what to do, but in the process my creativity tends to flourish. I love it. I’ve even written a sequel which I hope to be equally entertaining.
