| | |  The SS Quibbler!
Some of you eagle-eyed SSers may have spotted a new forum within the News Section of the site called The SS Quibbler.
This section of the news area is for opinion and response pieces & editorials which relate to news items.
For example, if you see a piece of news which you feel particularly passionate about, then you can write a piece on it in the new forum.
It can be in response to anything - new pictures, new rumours, new spoilers, film news, book news or claims that HP is 'evil'  .
Whatever you write about, it is important to remember that you MUST try to link back to the article that you're talking about.
It is also extremely important that all SS Board Rules are obeyed.
Please note that pieces should be of a substancial size - a few paragraphs at least - and should make sense - with the proper use of spelling, punctuation & grammar.
The threads will be moderated & approved by me so they won't appear automatically. However, if anything is unapproved, I will contact the member who has the written the piece to explain why.
But, more importantly, have fun and get creative & expressive with the new feature! I hope you enjoy it!  | |

^ Well, people write pieces, as in editorials about something they've seen in the News.
Then members can respond to what that person has written, saying whether they agree with them or not etc...

Hysterical realism, also called recherché postmodernism or
Quote: maximalism is a literary genre characterized by chronic length, manic characters, madding action, and frequent digressions on topics secondary to the story. Thank you Wikipedia. That's a description of Ottery's posts...and his soon to be submitted editorials... mwahahahahaha I'm going to start by writing an editorial about this news thread...and yes editorials can have manic characters...*blushes* I am not manic! But my action is madding...LOL, I do tend to digress sometimes too...

I think that'd be kinda hard  But I am relying on you for pieces that go haywire on the changes made in the book to film transistion

So you're asking for something a little more substantial than say...hmm 'that's groovy' is that what you're getting at??? No worries here...I'm a maximalist. You should just give me my own thread, "Ottery to the Max" or "Ottery won't shut it" or "How long can you stand arguing with the otter" But I digress...which is the whole point...LOL...
