Here's a novella I co-authored with a guy named Pete. It's long. It can be considered funny. It's still a bit rough. Due to its size, it's an attachment only. *Edit* I suppose I should tell you what the actual attachment is. It's common courtesy, and you should tell people what attachments are so they know whether to bother downloading or not. Hat is a story written in our best attempt at British humor. British accents were immitated as well as was possible (I'd appreciate if someone from Britain could help us Englandize our work. It is roughly 40 pages long and is not intended to be read in one sitting. Overdose sets in after a while The story follows an idealistic but naive man in modern England as he seeks to become a knight, getting together a party of characters. Along the way they go on a series of hilarious adventures. At no point in this story will you find anything approaching plot, deep themes, high-quality writing, or anything a literature professor would actually condone. You will find humor. In fact, almost every sentence is either funny in and of itself or helps set up another line to be funny. We'd both been reading Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy[/] prior to this, and it influenced our writing. We tried to immitate Douglas Adams' quirky, random humour. Expect ridiculous things to happen for even more ridiculous reasons. If you don't like it right away, you'll know to quit before the second chapter, but if you like it and keep going you'll probably get sucked in.

You mind if i make a suggestion? If you're going to make everyone cheerio british, then make Bob Robert. It just seems more proper. But the story is hilarious. And i have a thing for editing.. so on chapter three you said more useful had it been Thursday. But Thursday it was. because i'm too lazy to post the whole quote. And it should be considered hilarious. Because it is. |

I've read a third of it and I'm laughing hysterically...or at least trying not to since my moms asleep. |

At this point, the story fades into third-person omniscient perspective, although I’m not sure exactly why. Best line ever. It's even funnier because somehow the words come together just right, so my "head narrator" is British. Usually it's just Morgan Freeman....(points if you get the reference.) Edit: I finished chapter 1. Started a bit of chapter two. Now...it's weird. 0_o Edited by Blaze, 28 Feb 2009, 07:53 PM.

I've completely read the story. It's hilariously amazing. Hope you make a sequal, a very sequally sequal.

thats so dumb Lue if i was a MUM i would be up at extravagant times........ parents are nocturnal creatures who forgo internal time clocks when their offspring are young and as the offspring matures they often spends early hours of the morning working to provide f resh meals as the offspring reach two digit numbers they can be found waiting up for their return to the nest but thats just what i ve heard....... |

Well i guess that makes some sense, but i always have to get my mom up each morning. So your family is weird. Just kidding. Your family is slightly more/less dysfunctional then mine. I have no idea which, because i have no idea how dysfunctional my family is. No offense. But my parents wouldn't let me stay up late or borrow a car for a mcdonalds run. My parents would figure out how to lock the car door so my key didn't work. And put their keys in a combination safe. Maybe. |

The original idea was to have a sequel called Hatter I don't remember if I mentioned it, but the ending isn't as solid as I'd like. I wish it'd come together more. We're rewriting it. We probably won't have a sequel. The thing with humor is it's easy when you get in a certain groove, but if you can't get back into that same groove you can't do it much anymore. The story's also a fun little thing. A truly good comic story needs a serious, somewhat tragic part to balance it out. Even the normally laugh-a-minute Emporer's New Groove has its serious moments. It was a fun thing to write though. Pete and I work well together at times. He did most of the typing, though the section from Nigel's perspective was mostly written by me. We had a good thing going though. It went something like this: Pete: How about they do this next? Me: Yeah, but what if we changed it slightly so this happens? Pete: Yes! And then if they this next, it'd be hilarious. Also, the fight with the Puce Knight was largely my idea, and if you've read "Long Overdue" you'll find nearly identical air-conditioner suicide scenes. Edit: I threw up an explanation in my first post. If you're curious you can check it out. I may make a promo post for it. Edited by Cameron, 3 Mar 2009, 01:00 AM.
