My inclination (though I really don't suppose anyone cares) is to throw my whole-hearted support behind the Who cares, WTF? response, and run with it. And really, your age, whatever it is, really doesn't matter: it is your life, after all. Some people play golf, some people collect stamps, some people write fantastically, brilliant stories.
Besides, I can't really talk, here. I'm fairly sure that no one in RL knows that I write, except for my sister. Talk about a Big Fat Lie.
So, yes.
(Oh, and I'm very excited to actually get to talk with you tomorrow! And Meto, too!)
Very excited too! So, do you think Jadis and Green Witch are related? We've been discussing this over on NFFR... I have a theory that they are both perversions of the Evil Stepmother archetype. Rilian was 20 when he was taken and with her for 11 years. Very, very creepy. Everyone wants to hear about Swanwhite, btw. Yippee!
Oh, God, Jadis and the Green Witch. Well, there's definitely got to be some sort of a connection there, yes? After all, how many evil witches can one little land have running around without there being at least a bit of a link? But as to the exact nature of that relationship... well.
Here's another who "should be too old for these things" - hah! Hah! I haven't written Narniafic, though, I stick with Tolkien, mostly Silmarillion - but I read Narniafic. A lot.
If ever I were to write Narniafic, it would be crossover with Tolkien. An Elf of Middle-earth, who was born in Narnia because her parents had passed through a portal. She's a lady-in-waiting at Queen Swanwhite's court - the second of that name, the one that Lewis mentions in his timeline, while the first one is the one who is mentioned in LB.
The Elf gets back to Middle-earth eventually, and I've played her in RPGs after her transition to Tolkien's world.
Perhaps I should post (at ff.net) the story about how she got her name ...
I should listen to that. I'm interested in Queen Swanwhite mainly because I would like to use her in that crossover - and because it fits my purposes, I've decided that in my Narniaverse there were two of them. The legendary one before the Witch - just prior to her, if you like, I think Morothar uses that concept as well - and then another one, less known, but Lewis got them confused when he set up his timeline.
If you do, I'll be right there with you. Just you wait and see.
I think I have something like 55,000 words of post-TLB Susanfic on my hard drive that I need to finish. It is not (yet) smutty. But still. I know what you mean.
