New Fan Fiction

by **chrisbishop** » Sun Jul 08, 2007 4:12 pm

Our friend Serena Lewis has been telling for ages that she'll write a NCS fanfic. Now it's done!

Check it out on our Fan Fiction website section. It's under the name "Lydia Sheridan".

And it's a VERY good short story! 8M-M)

Bravo Serena!

Well done

Good insights into the characters, and the writing style itself flowed well.
Look forward to reading more.

Nice one, Serena. Good insight into Magenta who we know so little about in NCS. Await your further stories with interest.

Your story definitely deserves further 'reflections'...

Beautifully written, mature in tone. I was definitely left wanting more...
Welcome to this band of sisters (and brothers)...those lonely souls who toil ceaselessly in order to give others reading pleasure...
Welcome to the company of CS writers!!!

Yes, I second that!
Be warned though - it's an addictive hobby and you'll soon find yourself looking at everything that happens around you with the thought - now, I could use that in a story...

Trouble in - there aren't enough hours in the day to WRITE them all...

"And part of me — the writer part of me, the bit that has noted the particular way the light hit the broken glass in the puddle of blood even as I staggered out from a car crash, and has observed in exquisite detail the way that my heart was broken, or did not break, in moments of real, profound, personal tragedy — it was that part of me that thought, "You could get that effect with a smoke machine, some plants and a tape track. You'd need a really good lighting guy of course."
Neil Gaiman

I've always liked that quote, and it's so true

It's wonderful to see a new writer being born (metaphorically speaking), and being a part of that.

It's a 'welcome to the fold' for a new author. Welcome to a club that enables the imagination to roam and grow. That is how I view it. In pure dramatic tones of course.

All fanfiction referred to can be found on the main Spectrum Headquarters website:
http://www.spectrum-headquarters.com/
Then follow the links through the update pages, or the fan Fiction links.
You can send feedback via Colonel Chris through email, or on this forum through PM messages, or on the relevent threads.
There are very few writers who DON'T appreciate feedback on their work - the only thing expected is that the feedback be constructive, and not a personal attack - for whatever reason you may have.
Any offensive posts would be removed - naturally - by the Mods, and the offender would be risking a ban. $\D/$

I have only known to get two pieces of feedback from someone. One on Venegance Syndrome and one on something else. Both were told via email by the colonel. I don't mind feedback, as long as it's not abjectly hostile.

by **Marion** » Mon Aug 06, 2007 12:03 pm

That's not unusual, Matt. Feedback is not - as a rule- something people bother to do.
There are some honourable exceptions, and those are much appreciated.
I think you have to be pleased people read it - and remember this is a comparatively small fandom... so it's unlikely to have a potential audience of millions
