Remix fic commentary
May. 3rd, 2007 10:25 pmOops, I meant to post about this after the reveal. Ah well.
Here's my story, if anyone's interested.
This was my first remix; I've written a POV switch of
devikun's Senses Working Overtime that ended up playing a little with the themes of the story, but I wouldn't personally count it as a remix.
I was actually a little surprised to read the rules for Remix -- no changing plot? Eh? And then I read the clarification: someone remixing "The Little Mermaid" might think keeping the sea witch and the voice-losing and the need to win the prince's love was the story and disregard the whole dying bit at the end. So I shrugged and decided to do what I generally do when given instructions -- pretend that I actually understand the spirit of them, toss them out the window, and then proceed to make a general muck out of things (see: knitting, cooking, etc.).
( Thinky thoughts )
