New Fan Fic Idea... - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

JWood201 · 10-01-2002, 03:26 PM

Hey, peoples. As of now, I've just started my sequel to the super-long "And Baby Makes Eight", called "What Ever Happened to Baby Ally?" which will probably also be super-long. LOL.
I had another idea the other nite (I always get my ideas when I'm the busiest...). I was thinking of bringing Duke back. Frankly, I love that guy. LOL. And remember...he has amnesia. Oooo!

Tell me what you think... I have about 3/4 of a page written just reintroducing him; it's actually kinda funny. I'm proud. LOL.
If you guys care, I'll keep writing it.
Thanks.

BonniesLilCutiePie · 10-01-2002, 05:32 PM

Yay Courtney! That sounds awesome! I already know what is going to happen! So, the rest of you will just have to wait!

Anyway, you must write it, is so cute!

JWood201 · 10-01-2002, 05:34 PM

Hey, no fair! You already know about this! LOL. I wanna hear if other peoples are interested too.
You don't know *exactly* what's gonna happen -- I only gave you a rough idea that I was stewing over... Could change.

BonniesLilCutiePie · 10-02-2002, 07:33 AM

I know!

But I know one thing that won't change about it.

It HAS to have some Mary Ann/Gilligan scenes in it!

Ours always do.

JWood201 · 10-02-2002, 06:22 PM

Well, I could go another direction... I mean, I need to stretch my creativity a little.

LOLOL. Sorry, I had to toy w/ you... It won't be as blatant as last time, but..maybe... I donno! I didn't get that far yet!

BonniesLilCutiePie · 10-02-2002, 09:06 PM

It's alright!

I understand!

syoung · 11-01-2002, 01:35 PM

Hi! I'm kinda new here, but I've read your fanfic over at FanFiction.net. You stay very true to character, which is a problem with so many fanfics, and you're not alone in thinking that Mary Ann and Gilligan should have gotten together--I've thought that for 25 years!

Anyway, I'd like to read the sequel to "And Baby Makes Eight". Will it be on your site or at FanFiction.net?

Also, someone mentioned in another thread that she was writing "An Island Wedding"--where would I find that? Did she ever finish it? And if you know of anyplace I can find GI fanfic, please let me know. Thanks!

Julie the GI girl · 11-01-2002, 04:05 PM

YAY! i think it's an awesome idea. i love duke....it would be hilarious if he returned.

i'll read anything you write! it's all good! lol

JWood201 · 11-01-2002, 06:13 PM

LOL, thanks guys.

Welcome to the boards, syoung! It'll be on FanFiction.net and my site. The more times it gets posted, the better. I've kinda hit a wall in the sequel; I'm not sure where to go next, but I'll be outta my funk soon.

Yeah, the "Island Wedding" thing's totally been postponed for, like, months. I donno what JT's thing is...last I heard, it had been accidently deleted and he had to rewrite it. **shrug** Haven't heard about it in a while. I *really* wanna read it!

syoung · 11-01-2002, 08:17 PM

All right, cool--I'll be looking forward to your sequel. I'd love to read that "Island Wedding" fanfic, though.

When I was about 3-years-old, my imaginary playmate was named "Gilligan". Now, keep in mind I'm nearly 37 now!

I met Bob Denver a few years ago, and told him this. He seems like a really nice guy.

Thanks for the info.

JWood201 · 11-02-2002, 12:18 PM

Hey, I have some more details about the Duke story. I wrote some more last nite (interesting...since I have 3 projects due on Monday and I haven't done any of them. huh).
Ginger and Mary Ann get into a tiff (ooh, I said 'tiff').
Then I pull the classic gotta-pretend-to-be-my-BF-so-this-dude'll-leave-me-alone. Love that. Kinda like what they did in the Duke ep...only different.
It's hard to explain 'cause I don't wanna give away stuff. So I guess you'll just haveta read it. Hehehe.
**giggles at self** Oh, Duke...he's so dense.

OOH, AN EXCERPT!:

“Oh, Duke, darling,” Ginger started, blatantly overacting, “Mary Ann here was just explaining to me about how she found you in the jungle.” She made her way around the table and stood unnecessarily close to him.
“Well, I more like rescued her.”
Ginger gasped, feigning impression, “Really? That must be why she’s so smitten with you.” Mary Ann turned, horrified. Ginger answered her surprise with a sweet smile and a continuation of her tale. “Why, she was just telling me how incredibly handsome she thought you were.” Duke grinned. His head proceeded to bob back and forth in that irritating way men’s heads do when they think they’re suave. “See ya,” Ginger purred. She winked at them both before sauntering off to her hut.
“I cannot believe she just did that.”
“It’s okay, baby. It had to come out sometime. Move it, kid.” He shoved Gilligan off the end of the bench and sat down in his spot next to Mary Ann.
“Get away from me, Duke.”
“You don’t have to be embarrassed anymore. It’s all out in the open.”
She sensed he was getting ready to put his arm around her. “Touch me and die.” She wouldn’t look at him.
There was silence for a moment until he burst out laughing. “You’re so cute when you’re angry.”

:THAT'S ALL YOU'RE GETTING! (I won't tell you why Ginger's being a meany.

)

syoung · 11-02-2002, 05:43 PM

Sounds pretty interesting! You're really good at staying true to character--I don't read much fanfic because so much of it is fake-sounding--you want to cringe while reading it! But I've enjoyed yours.

BTW, I'm the new editor of the Bob Denver page at TVTomes (kinda fell into it by accident--was surfing on that website and saw that they needed an editor for that page--I volunteered

. Anyway, may I link your Gilligan site to his page on TVTomes?

Talk to you soon!

JWood201 · 11-02-2002, 08:01 PM

Aw, thanks so much. LOL. I'm so paranoid about trying to stay in character. I agree w/ you 100% -- Alot of fanfic is soooo horrible b/c the author's fail to do so.

Of course you can post a link to my site! The more traffic I get, the better! Thanks!

syoung · 11-03-2002, 12:13 AM

Cool, thanks! Consider it done!

Julie the GI girl · 11-03-2002, 01:11 AM

i KNOW! i'm the same way. very paranoid about keeping them all in character. i try. the story i'm working on...well....i let my friend read what i have so far (she's not really a gilligan fan btw), and she loved it. she likes corny sappy romances. lol. but she wanted me to make it....um....shall we say "more romantic" in the one part....she was giving me suggestions....and i was like "NO! the professor would NOT do that!" LOL! it's weird....because once you kind of get them into character....the story writes itself. i don't think about what they're going to say next....it just happens. anyway....i've been working on it....i hope to have it done soon. but i think i'm going to maybe divide it up into parts....so i'm going to try to have the first part done by the end of the month. i'm slow. i only have so much time to type when i'm alone in the kitchen without everyone looking over my shoulder. i need my own computer. lol.

courtney! the duke story sounds awesome! i'm already itching to read more. ginger is being quite a meany! i can't wait to see what happens. oh, and....i was also meaning to ask if i could link to your site. when i finally get mine updated and have more than just the main intro page....i'll have a links section. i'm also going to have a fan fic section....can i link to your stories too?
