I'm re-doing my personal fic site to make it a bit easier to update overall. Of
course that means it's a royal mess to start with. But I do have all my 10th
Kingdom fic up and running, so if anyone's interested in signing up and
commenting on some of it, that would pretty much make my day:

And forgive me for any weirdness or kinks (though feel free to let me know if
you spot any!). The main one I know is that there are four fics in the section
and it insists on saying there are two.

Peace & Love,
Beth

I went through and did some cleaning up in the links section, including removing
all Geocities links since they'll be shut down shortly. If you know any sites
that aren't included, please feel free to add them!

We were chatting about movies and books at a staff lunch the other day and the
subject of "grown up" fairy tales came up. I found out one of my coworkers is
T10K fan as well, so that was a lovely surprise :)

Where have your most random fannish connections been made?

Peace & Love,
Beth

I find myself in the same situation only with a website as well as yahoo-groups.
So I'd like to know too.

If you can't spend the time to watch it, read the novel! It's what I do when I
need a 10K fix and don't have the 15+ hours to devote to watching it. It's
actually what I'm reading right now! :D

I am SO jealous! :)

I haven't had a chance to watch it yet, but I've finally upgraded my VHS copy of
the 10th Kingdom to DVD. I'm psyched. It's always fun watching it, but it will
definitely be nice seeing a less edited version. heh

Peace & Love,
Beth

Well, if I knew how to make them, that would be fun. Is it easy?
I originally intended to write something, but everytime I had an idea I was
either in bed or in the car, so it never got done. :(
>>>>>>>>>>>>

I can definitely understand that. As for making wallpapers... well, it wasn't
easy for me when I started, but it is now. I think it partly depends on what
software you're using. Most folks have something at least somewhat decent that
they maybe installed with their printer or somesuch, so I'd say just play around
with that and see what you can do :)

Peace & Love,
Beth

Unfortunately I was the only participant.  heh Hopefully next time around we'll
have more folks, yes?

I'm thinking later this summer I may try a wallpaper contest or something along
those lines. Would anyone be interested?

Peace & Love,
Beth

Alrighty, no deadline extension since nobody else seems to be working on a
story. heh I've got mine up, so if no one else enters something by the end of
tomorrow, I guess it will be an easy win for me :P

Peace & Love,
Beth

Title: Dark Days
Author: Elizabeth Wilde (star_momma@...)
Rating: PG
Genre: vignette, drama
Summary: The Queen does not tolerate weakness.
Disclaimer: Sadly, I don’t own the 10th Kingdom or any of the characters from
it. This is
done for fun only.
Distribution: anyone who already archives my fic, anyone who asks,
http://www.biteyourtongue.net/wilde (my site)
Completed: April 11, 2009

There were days when she felt close to something, some memory that lingered just
beyond the edges of her consciousness. On those days she felt weak. It was like
being
sick only nothing made her feel better. She shied away purposefully from those
feelings,
but they persisted. The Queen never knew when they would strike, but they always
troubled her.

As much as possible, she avoided even the guards on the days when that weakness
came
upon her. The people deserved to see her as a ruler. Some of them denied the she
was
“good” enough to rule, of course, but she paid that no mind. The Queen knew
that there
was no room for goodness in a ruler. The people never understood all that must
be done
to keep control of a kingdom, all the dark little decisions that built an
empire.

She smiled. It would turn their stomachs. But she knew. She accepted. She had
always
understood the necessity of difficult decisions, had understood even before-

It would NOT be one of those days. The Queen tipped her chin up and set her face
into a
mask of determination. Lesser men and women might fall apart in such
surroundings, but
she would persevere. Even hidden away in the bowels of the jail, she would find
her way
to the light of freedom.

The Queen smiled to herself. Heaven help the rest of them when she did.

Since I know I could use more time and a few others have gotten in touch with me
offlist and said the very same thing... more time! hehe Life's crazy, and this
is just for our amusement, so the deadline for the FicFest will now be April
30th.

Thanks, all!
Beth

I just wanted to check in and see if anyone else needs a little extra time for
the ficfest. Don't be shy! If you think you can get something done, but you need
a few more days or a couple more weeks, either reply to this or email me offlist
at star_momma@.... We're just doing this for fun and for us, so I don't
have any problems at all with giving out some extra time :)

Peace & Love,
Beth

Just a reminder - entries for the ficfest are due on March 31st. If you are
working on a fic and find as the deadline approaches that you need an extension,
please let me know. It's just us crazies here, so we can alter the timeline to
suit us ;) And remember, it doesn't have to be an opus. Even a brand new drabble
to read would make a lot of us perfectly happy.

Peace & Love,
Beth

I've extended the deadline to March 31, 2009 to give folks more time to work
since, frankly, I
need it myself. lol
