Hmmm.....

I've started a fanfic for The Patty Duke Show. It branches off from an episode in the second season that features one of Jeff Siggins' (the Autor look-alike) characters. I'm still trying to figure out what to do with all of his characters, since they seem to each have a distinctive personality even though they're minor characters. Tentatively, I'd thought of making them triplets and then I could comfortably and freely write about all of them. Then I realized I'd forgotten one. So I'm not sure whether to make them quadruplets or two sets of identical twins and each set are the cousins of the other set. LOL. Cousins would be more in keeping with the show's theme. Yes, I know identical cousins don't happen in real life. It's a TV show.

Right now I have George (the naive, innocent one swayed by the Southern cousin of the main girls) and Alfred (the tease) brothers. I haven't done anything with Alan (the apparently serious one) and Philip (the one I forgot; possibly a quiet one?) yet. Then there's Eros, but I was thinking that was probably the name of a character in the play they're doing in that episode and that "Eros" is played by one of Siggins' other characters. I hope so, anyway; I really doubt I'd know what to do with five. LOL.

I need to get hold of the first season episodes. I'm not sure I want to wait for them to repeat before I see them again. Right now I'm following a Buy It Now listing on eBay, as well as an auction for all three seasons, new. I'm sure the latter will shoot sky-high at the last minute, but right now it's affordable. And how much more awesome would it be to get them all in one swoop? I do want the entire series.

I'm also working on the Tutu thriller fic. I'm in chapter 6 now. I need to get up chapter 4, but I'm wondering if I should wait for next week since the rest of this week is caught up in Thanksgiving and Black Friday.
