Rapid update: Since I discarded the alternate identity of Mister Eclectic, Geralyn's condition has improved radically. This next sonnet, written mere days ago, reflects the good news. From Eastern time to Rocky Mountain zone, Came news of one my family had known well: Dear Geri, whose man...

Pastor Llewellyn's wife Annette came by to invite Rufus and Bruce over for supper. "There'll be lead time for Mister James to stow his luggage in the dojo." Then, addressing Rufus directly: "Bruce's quarters at the back are barely big enough to let him straighten his legs on the cot. If you stay...

Those who've been diligently wading through my isolated world of Punksteema will remember that this alternate Earth is totally unlike us geographically but very much like us in racial and cultural diversity. For instance, Jesus is known here as "Ishwa," but Punksteeman Bible translators (notably...

One of my all-time favorite space movies was Robinson Crusoe On Mars, starring the cinematic one-hit wonder Paul Mantee as the stranded astronaut Christopher Draper. There's nothing wrong about the script (back in the Sixties, it was plausible that the Martian environment could be made...

Rob ("Pholus the Centaur") Rice, who in real life is a performer at Colorado Renaissance Festival and lives within thirty miles of me, suffered a traffic accident this week. He and I had been developing a story idea. For those who don't know Rob, he has long been writing a fantasy series. His...

Did I not already forward to you the phone text which Keith sent to me? That image-free message IS the first new Screwtape letter. Please tell me BY text whether you got it.

The Person Below Me has not yet figured out how I plan to study time-travel paradoxes in the Doctor Who series.

Good evening, Paul. John Burkitt and I have been coordinating our own content-increasing efforts. My ability to record songs has been slowed by the purely logistical problem of _getting_ the needed audiotape recorder. Also factoring in are some practical needs of my young-adult ward, Hope...

Elsewhere on Dancing Lawn, I have mentioned a long-time friend named Keith Klickman, whom I've known for nearly all of my life as a Christian. He was part of my old band Ashplant. Getting back in touch after we both moved to different states. I found that he had moved to the same state where Sir...

Thanks very much, badger-turned-otter. The sloppiness of the map screenshots is due to my own sloppy sketching; but I'll piece my city-state back together. In case anyone sees this BEFORE seeing "Gunslingers of the Fourth Galaxy," be advised that, in Dystopian Earth geography, Wild Wild South...

This is a fantasy concept which I toyed with as a teenager: a city-state where different ethnic groups would mingle. Just this year, resolved on providing more content for Dancing Lawn, I took it on myself to update the Tetrapolis idea. Meanwhile, I restored contact with a buddy I've known...

In reply to Fish_wwjd_frog: I _might_ have seen it. Are you referring to the film starring Clive "King Arthur" Owen as an early British anti-slavery activist? After _eighteen_ years, the person below me probably _won't_ have come to this long-forgotten thread without having _first_ caught up...

Greetings, Specter's daughter and deputy. Evening Star's own troubles may not have left him the time and energy to report to you and Paul about my effort to supply content for the new YouTube channel. The relentless health needs of Wood Nymph, whose guardian I am, have made it much simpler for...

My recently-begun fan fiction "Jacob Zavala's Sixth Destroyer," though not a path-choosing work, does exactly fit the terms of a fan-fiction creation. Honor Harrington IS Honor Harrington. In "Spacebullies," I have called Batman Batfellow, Captain America Colonel America, Wonder Woman Walloper...

Thank you, Evening Star. It's my bad that Sorcery Lass has short legs making her look like a Hobbit beauty queen. Even at the age of seventy- four. I still haven't mastered proportions. But on to give specifics about each character here. The lovely lady is a good witch. In keeping with my usual...

There's a real-universe galaxy called the Southern Pinwheel. I imagine some Narniaverse characters popping up there. What's more, some of the good guys will move along to ANOTHER galaxy, called Gamma Sateri. There, a good witch based on He-Man / She-Ra cartoons will try to prevent a version of...

Thanks for the Like, Hermoine. My above-mentioned artwork is in the mail to Nashville, for Evening Star to handle when he gets there. I can't phone-text imagery to him, because this would somehow expose him to malicious code. No joke, I have more experience with malware than I ever wanted to...

Jadis runs along the aisles of public libraries, trying to remove all books by C.S. Lewis, but Specter and Evening Star follow close behind, replacing the books with copies which were personally autographed by Mister Lewis up in Aslan's Country.
