That DVD-Commentary-for-fic meme thing

[angstslashhope]

Will happily attempt to write commentary on my Supernatural fic if anyone wants it. Anyone?

I'd like one on Widdershins

[angstslashhope]

Widdershins is a huge one! but I want to give it a go. I might have to modify the format, though, because it is so huge. Hmm!! *ponderation*

Thanks for playing!

Do it in chunks over a few months. I can wait. I love the fic, because it hits how John's situation is so confusing and so is the town he's found himself

S'all metaphorical and stuff.

S'all metaphorical and stuff.

*giggles* that it is! probably overly so, at times. Still, I think it was confusing enough for people that it merits a commentary anyway. :)

Not particularly original here, but Little Rattle Stilt. I was explaining the story to my husband a couple of nights ago, and ended up crying while I was retelling it. (I may have been slighterly drunk, also)

But yeah, wee Sammy and Dean hugging in the moonlit window. That's an image that's forever in my brain.

N'aww YOU! I'm still in bogglement over how weepy people get over that story! Will give it a whirl *g*

I enthusiastically (and somewhat tearily) second this vote for Little Rattle Stilt.

What exactly is a DVD commentary? I've never read one.

[angstslashhope]

It's essentially meta-commentary one does on one's own fic. It's referred to as a DVD commentary, because mainly of its format - usually you re-post the story with comments in a different colour or something. Kind of like when you're watching a DVD with commentary, and the voice-over's explaining how they did something, or what inspired a particular scene while you're watching it.

I would enjoy commentary for Field of Mars, if you were so inclined.

[angstslashhope]

I would definitely like to do one for FoM. Will give it a go!

[mermaid4fic]

I agree that a commentary on little rattle stilt would be interesting (particularly looking at stylistic / vocabulary choices, because writing from a little kid's POV must be one of the hardest things to pull off).

Also, I should tell you that I nearly sprained something laughing at your John/Captain Oates icon. The 'going outside' quote is well known in my family, and it's so apt for John! Is it gankable, and who should I credit?

[angstslashhope]

I shall give little rattle stilt a whirl tonight :)

Alas, I am selfish when it comes to my icons and don't like sharing, sorry! The Captain Oates quote is a big in-joke with my friends, too :)

[essenceofmeanin]

my two favorite stories of yours are 'prelude' and 'socktacular socktacular'. i would love to see commentary on either one!
