Wolverine's mom
I finally figured out a way (not necessarily a good way, but a way) to explain his hair. I decided in my AU that he has a habit of running his fingers thru his hair, twisting a bit as he pulls them out of the wavy mass. When he is extremely upset, he grabs both sides and yanks the hair. I mean, he's...

this coffee tastes astounding!
If you need a laugh, I hope my experience today will provide the basis for a chuckle. I was looking through the soft book I'd bought for my grandson who's turning 2 this weekend. It is shaped like a dumptruck and tells about construction, with names by many of the objects and people. In the middle p...

Anyone attempting NaNoWriMo 2010?
I had several ideas but even as I was cooking today, rememberd a short story I've tried to write several times without success. Maybe it's crying to be a novel. But I'll prolly stick with the silly scam one. More fun = more inspiration. Sorry to keep editing, but at my age (early 50's, younger than ...

Has Prof X had a sect'y?
Yeah, one of my shortcomings is that I tend to OVER-think any story I write, even short-shorts or flash fiction. It seemed ODD for him to not have someone, though.

Has Prof X had a sect'y?
As I plot away at the neverending fanfic, it occurs to me that I don't recall seeing ol' Chuckles ever having a secretary. Granted, he's a mega-genius and has all this space-age equipment, blah blah, but even before we all had computers, did he ever have someone to type his notes, keep his secret do...

Slightly :offtopic (as usual for me, the Queen o' Thread Hijackers) Okay, if I were gonna retcon and smooth over the discrepancies like icing on an imperfect cake, I'd kinda write it as if he had been alone a lot as a kid due to his unusual/frightening appearance, and that this made him a little mor...

Intriguing. I'm not so clever at understanding modern comics -- I do better with words than visuals -- but I do like your style, like waves on the ocean, and the sense of drama and surprise.

who would be your fave Nightcrawler and any X-women couple?
However, Kurt and Kitty have shown a great deal of affection toward each other already and they remain close friends and share common values despite both having very strong and occasionally conflicting personalities. Have them explorie a romantic relationship would be a great opportunity for charac...

I suggest old-school Spidey, any of the Nightcrawler solo series, or your fave indy book. Why the heck not? I think I'll bring a copy of Marvel Adventures to our local writing club meeting tomorrow; one of our speakers once was a kid who illustrates for Marvel. Here's more info. It'd be fun to see p...

I thoroughly enjoyed Rowena's tale pairing Nighty with Spider-woman. Brilliant concept, well executed.

Wow, thanks. Just goes to show that bribery does work. (Kidding!) Guess I'd better get off my tuckus, or position it in my computer desk chair, and get back to work on "Unguarded Moments" at fanfiction.net. Am stalled at Chapter Seven, but I have TONS & TONS written for after that one,...

Sorry, I don't know it backwards&forwards; when was Kurt NOT blue? And/or fuzzy? Unless you mean that the coloring looked flat or something?

Really fun read, and it does capture the essense of what I love about Nighty: his kindness (helping a stranger), his appreciation of women (the obligatory kiss :D ), and even in this tense and confusing situation, his panache (acrobatics for flair). *sigh* I also liked your descriptions, esp of the ...
