4:24 pm	Sanguinity/Minaverse things by Other People Just to reiterate: Minaverse fanfiction and fanart has the author's full support. If you'd like yours linked here, just drop me an email or a comment. 1. cesario has written At Her Grace’s Behest. Part two is here. 2. mutecornett has drawn Mina. 3. dreamer_marie has written Resting On His Muscled Shoulder. 4. narcissam has written a Mina entry for the fandom wank wiki. Thanks to jabberwockypie for pointing that out, and rickybuchanan for telling me how to find out who's authored a wiki entry. 5. tmartian42 is keeping The List of characters roaming around outside of the stories. I approve wholeheartedly, though it is a tad disturbing to see how many innocent people (the real ones, that is) have accounts that fit in. I can only hope they're pleased by the accidental inclusion, rather than appalled, if they ever find out about it. (Sadly, I don't own or operate any of the in-character sockpuppets. I do love them, though, and applaud their creators.) 6. invidereliana runs mdmfans for all your icon and discussion needs. Footnotes can be found there sometimes. 7. temaris, who contacted me about this a while back, has podcasts available at her livejournal: Snailmail Affair Charitable Impulse Young Blood Twee Little Maids. 8. euqen has written Something Simple, Something Sleazy and I Left My Body Lying Somewhere. 9. liz_darkheart has written Fear and Fascination and the Courtly Dance, which are Sanguinity fanfiction. 10. gnatkip has created a sampler like the one Mina wants to make. 11. thedorkygirl has written the Contender. 12. The romantic Kadorienne has written Midnight Oil. 13. wminstrel has written and performed 'Sanguinity.' 14. vuirneen has posted a copy of her semi-private email to me, which I’m sure you’ll all find instructive. Really, the things that go on at cons are outrageous, aren’t they? Too Many Minas Spoil the Con is a warning to us all. 15. grey_bard has written A Paen to Sanguinity (a song) by RavenKelVamp. Or maybe I should say “RavenKelVamp has written...” 16. A missing scene, courtesy of tmartian42. 17. kyuuketsukirui has written Dream Diary, and the tone and characterization are perfect, if I do say so myself. 18. If you have a close look at Chapter Ten of rose_and_lizard's wonderful Marlowfic, Term of Duty, Miranda's aunt might look familiar to you. 19. jackiejlh has written an untitled Mina story (which should be read just after the first installment of 2.7, Brides of Fictionstein, if you're reading these in order). Part two is here, and part three is here. 20. The inspirational Mina poster, features mutecornett's art. 21. Nocturne has written Rainy Monday. 22. scifantasy's Case Study provides a fascinating look behind-the-scenes. Check his journal for further Case updates. 23. expectare has written a Nancy Drew/Minaverse crossover: The Mystery at the Adjectival Library. Current Mood: Cliquish (9 Comments |Comment on this)

10:34 pm	1.10 Mina de Malfois and the Attempted Coup (part four) [Isn't everybody glad that Arc made Mina take full responsibility for her inadvertent quotations? Such an easy mistake to make, Mina's, but luckily easy to fix as well. Also, Mina keeps getting Vox invites; she has two now. Does anyone want these? She'll gladly give them away to anyone who responds with an email address.] Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction. No resemblance is intended to any person or persons living, dead, or online.

5:31 pm	1.10 Mina de Malfois and the Attempted Coup (part one) [The author wishes to thank all of you for your patience and willingness to be amused. Extra thanks to those of you who've expressed an interest, however tongue-in-cheek, in taking part in Fanfiction Idol. Thus far most inquiries seem to have come from HP fandom, but we're hoping for a wide display of, uh, talent. Yes, Mina and her fellow sockjudges really will post links to all audition posts, and then hold a public poll so that the listeners readers at home can pick their top ten. Subsequent rounds will involve reposts of entries, judges' commentaries, and further polls. Remember to wank vote for your favourites! No, there are no prizes, but you'll be internet famous and lots of people will want to friend you, including this author.] Permissions: All rights reserved.

All other reproduction, transmission, or storage, in any format, is prohibited unless the author is contacted beforehand and grants specific written permission. The author may be contacted at mina_de_malfois@yahoo.com. Ah, fandom: that freely chosen, non-commercial pleasure dome of hobbydom, which for some reason attracts a fair number of people who are blind with anger whenever anyone disagrees with them. Take Warr1or, for instance. Far from feeling transported with delight that an escape such as Sanguinity exists, much less gratified that anybody takes the time to read his opinions, he demands full agreement with every utterance. I’ve seen him fly into a state of absolute spittle-flicking rage over quite minor divergence from his Holy Writ expressed ideas. He’s not, as far as one can tell, a stupid man. If he left behind the persecution complex and embraced the concept of ‘anger management,’ perhaps he’d find more time to focus on his fanfiction. I doubt he’d ever be counted amongst the BNFs, but MNFdom could quite possibly be within his reach, if only the restraining orders don’t pile too high in the interim. ~Mina ( the Dreams of Angels ) At His Lordship's Behest I.

9:26 pm	Of Vice and Velvet (introduction) Permissions: All rights reserved. All other reproduction, transmission, or storage, in any format, is prohibited unless the author is contacted beforehand and grants specific written permission. The author may be contacted at mina_de_malfois@yahoo.com. You know, someone once said that they enjoy my fandom even better than my memoirs, and while I can’t say I’m entirely sure I appreciate that sentiment, when I look over the comments I have to, however reluctantly, agree with it. The comments section is a thing of beauty and a joy forever. Whereas BNFdom is, in comparison, usually more burden than delight. So many toes to avoid stepping on, you know, even as one tries to make sure everyone sees the superiority of one’s own fanfiction. As a for instance, I spotted two typos in PrinceC’s intro, but should I point this out--thus confirming my editorial skills--or keep quiet, out of loyalty? In my experience, one usually appreciates having easily fixable mistakes pointed out, but how can I possibly know if he shares the same reasonable outlook? Fanfiction authors put up with so much ‘helpful’ feedback that I hesitate to bring it to his attention. But then, he’s clearly destined for BNFdom, so it’s one of the things he should be warned about. And then there are the hangers-on. I’m sure my dear friend Charlotte knows the sort of thing I mean: well-intentioned people offering one electronic goods and comp’d suites, but dragging their feet and howling with outrage if you suggest they spend their spare change on something worthwhile. It’s not that I don’t adore presents--I do, I really do--but there are more important things than influence peddling, when you get right down to it. Behind so many kindnesses there’s a manipulative hand trying to shore up their own fanbase. One is almost safer redirecting people to a worthwhile charity than one is accepting gifts from friends of dubious intent. ~Mina ( Of Vice and Velvet (introduction) ) At His Lordship's Behest I.
