I have a box with four proof copies of last year's Na No Wri Mo project in my room. I'm too scared to let anyone read them. Or edit them. Fun times.
PM box is always open.Was trying to point that arrow at Anemoi, but missed.
Madman with a box? I'm a madman with a semi, a pretzel bender and a Heart of Gold!I've firmly established that cross-dimensional travel is impossible in my universe due to both the meta-fictional laws (thanks, Discworld and Theory of Narrative Causality) and everyone determining that alternate dimensions makes things "too confusing".
So if we do crossover, you guys are gonna have your characters open a gateway for my characters to cross.

What do I think UN?
You know you want to add loveI suppose I am officially a sad and pathetic person.
See my siggy line? The 'pretzel bender' is another name for the universe-hopping device in "Number of the Beast" by Robert Heinlein.
And yes, that device will be in Long Dash negima.
Madman with a box? I'm a madman with a semi, a pretzel bender and a Heart of Gold!Hey, at least you read Heinlein.
If your book series were to be adapted into something, what would you guys choose? I personally would like a series of 2D animated movies, with a spin-off animated series for my short stories.
A 52 episode anime.
Oooh, you have an ending planned for your series, eh?
Personally, while I fully admit that things overstaying their welcome is a horrible fact of storytelling, I don't ever plan on ending my series. I'd like to think of it like...if a character isn't dead, their story isn't over yet.
Same here. I don't end my series, I just work on a new one! I just said 52 because I consider 12-13 episodes too bloody short.

Depends on the plot, but some kind of 2D animated work would be cool.
PM box is always open.Hopefully by the same guys who made Fate Zero. They have good cinematic sense.
Unequally Rational and Emotional Q&A!
A: I didn't punch that guy, no one saw me doing it, and even if I had done it, it possibly couldn't have killed him! I want my lawyer!
Q: ... Excuse me, but... what?
A: Sorry. It tends to come out naturally by now, whenever I'm being questioned.
Q: ... Okay. Mrs. Urashima, when did you first learn your foster sister was a mage?
A: It was shortly after Dad remarried. Mei-chan had brought this weird haughty girl home, a few years older than her, and then used to play around with wands, and for some reason, I always found them naked afterwards. I told myself it was no business of mine, and some girls start experimenting at that age, not me, mind, never listen to Kitsune's lies, so I left them alone. But one day after returning home from holidays after one of her school periods in America, Mei-chan called me aside and told me 'I'm a mage!'
Q: It must have been quite a shock for you.
A: At first I was convinced her friend Takane was getting her involved in drugs, but then Mei-chan showed me one of her fire spells. She messed it up, burned my clothes off, Keitaro walked in...
Q: And you punched him?
A: What a dumb question. Of course not! What kind of a woman do you think I am? I didn't punch him, because I had to cover myself with both hands! I headbutted him to stun him, and once he was nicely set for it, I kicked him into the next postal zone. Not kidding about that last part, by the way. I had to pay for his train fee.
Q: Oh, yes, about your marriage. What can you tell us about your new book The 1002 Secrets of a Successful Marriage through Physical Abuse?
A: I hate that title, but the editorial thought it'd be controversial and sell. I wanted to call it How to Dominate your Idiot and Guarantee Nuptial Bliss, but they said it sounded too sophisticated for the masses. That's why our culture just doesn't take off. Anyway, it's a book Keitaro and me put a lot of love and effort into. It was heartwarming, seeing how much enthusiasm he put on cooperating with the pictures for the instructions. And every image is poetry caught during motion. No one flies like him, not even Superman-sama. Here, you see how he moves his arms and legs in this one? Most gymnasts would kill for that grace!
Q: Your book has been called 'the Kamasutra of Domestic Violence'. Critic Tendo Akane gave it Five Stars until The Bitter End. It's popular even in Mundus Magicus, where the famous Louise la Valliere claimed it changed her life. How do you feel about touching so many lives?
A: It's simply heartwarming. It makes me so happy, going to bed every night knowing my teachings have gained so many adepts. I thank everyone who has bought the book, and sent me all those letters, twits and yes, even the bomb packages and the envelopes with anthrax. You fuckers know who you are. In truth, I owe it all to the man who taught me how to punch, Falcon-sensei. Wherever he is now, I hope he is proud of my humble achievements.
Q: Well, it's been a pleasure, Mrs. Urashima. That's a wrap for today. Don't miss our next chapter's interview with Hiraga Saito on the subject of escaping a life of torture through dimensional rebooting. A touching story of self discovery and personal remaking against the backdrop of cosmic cataclysm! Also, upgrading from Pink Haired Pettanko to Queen Sized Meido!

If mine were an anime, I'd want Studio Bones or Madhouse.

The interview seems different from your usual style OM.

I wanted to shift gears before growing bored with the interviewing style.
Don't you mean "it couldn't possibly have killed him?"
Is Chisame going to have a copy of that book by the end of URAE?
...
And I have no idea how I would want my stories adapted. I suppose it depends on what the story looks like when I've finished it.
Madman with a box? I'm a madman with a semi, a pretzel bender and a Heart of Gold!Maybe you can do them A&E documentary style next? Like your watching a documentary?
Speaking of documentaries, who was going to write the one about the habits of the Springfield?
@Anemoi What I was asking about was you believing you were the resident dumbass. I'm fairly certain that is my function here.
Madman with a box? I'm a madman with a semi, a pretzel bender and a Heart of Gold!I think that was Immi's idea.
We don't really have a resident dumbass here. We just pass the Idiot Ball around.
My hand's in the air, incidentally. Novels are long, man.
The first sentence of that project is... somewhere.
While the subject is vaguely relevant, how many of you can I convince to do Na No Wri Mo this year? Fun, chaos, and ninjas are guaranteed.
PM box is always open.Hey, we can have Gifs with motion as avatars now. Cool.
@Anemoi Do I want to know why you think that?
And raise your hand if you AREN'T working on a novel. Is it bad that mine is the GURPS campaign I've always wanted to run?
