My site is up.
The first part of Chapter 1 has been posted as a teaser, the rest will have to wait until I get the permission to use the characters that are copyrighted by other people. _________________ I'm a nut, but there are those who appreciate me for it.

I've split the discussion into a new topic.
I'd like to keep this topic for my updates, otherwise feel free to create new topics, to discuss my work and related topice.
I'm still waiting for a reply from two authors whose characters have a somewhat important role in my story: Chris Yost and Max Blackrabbit.
And Eric Schwartz, but after reading his FAQ, I've decided to go ahead without his express permission and continue sending him a mail every now and then until he answers. _________________ I'm a nut, but there are those who appreciate me for it. |

Sorry, no story yet.
One down, one to go.
That leaves only Max BlackRabbit. Still no reply. If anybody has better channels of communication to him and get him to reply to me, that would be great.
Since his website if down (with the rest of FurNation), I can't check his policy on usage of his characters, specifically Zig Zag. If anybody who has used her in his/her story can honestly tell me that it is OK with him to use her without express permission, then that would be enough for me to go ahead. _________________ I'm a nut, but there are those who appreciate me for it. |

I can say that he most likely will have no problem with it but you should ask him anyway. He's not very touchy about others using his characters.
If all other ways fail, are you signed up for Yahoo Groups? There are several about his work. I think the various Zig Zag groups are all taken down by Yahell but there still are a few online. You can ask him via one of them. The URLs are
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/MaxandMaxinesHangout/?yguid=89934112
for "Max and Maxines Hangout" and
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/MaxBlackrabbit/?yguid=89934112
For the "Max BlackRabbit" Group.
Both Groups are about others of MBR's characters and not Zig Zag but I'm sure it will be okay of you ask there. _________________ Tygon Panthera - name and species

Thanks for the tips, using the Yahell groups I was finally able to get a reply from Max.
Seems he gets so many requests to use Zig, he thought he had already answered mine (or the mail got lost or whatever).
Anyway, the full first chapter is now posted. _________________ I'm a nut, but there are those who appreciate me for it. |

Ahem? Why does everyone want to use Zig?
Should I? Or shouldn't I?
Oh, don't be a smartass.
Wendy?! Who asked you?
You didn't have to ask, luv. I knew you'd need my help.
Yeah, right. I'll talk to YOU later. < shoves her back through the Portal >
Ahem ... again ... To answer your question, Whiterabbit ...

OTOH, it might be fun to write in "Maxine" if MBR ws willing.

when I talk to him this year about using Zig his answer was very clear. Post a disclaimer saying she belongs to him and there is no problem |

Cause Zig is hot, and Max's avatar usually ends up as the butt of some joke or another....more so if you try it with Wolf's particular tastes. He made Max into Maxine, even Eric S. got into it....even if his muse nearly knocked his head off a number of times! *lmto*

Can just see Max's response to that....'Are you insane?!? It's bad enough I get turned into one of Darke's chew toys! Now you want to write about my alter-ego? Your nuts!'
SkunkFox....ok I'm asking Max if I can use Maxine!! _________________ Insane and loving it!

Humph. Well. I wrote Max a little cameo in Chapter 10, but only one reader that I know of spotted it. Guess I should have made it a bit more obvious.
I figured, after all that junk he went through with Sabrina, he deserved a worthy femme. _________________ Oddly enough, my life is based on a true story. (Ashleigh Brilliant) |

Damn, I noticed it too. Should have said something.
Of course, that's easy to say now that it's publick knowledge. You have to believe me... or not _________________ Tygon Panthera - name and species

Chapter 2 has been posted (actually was posted on on friday).
Either just about nobody noticed the announcement or ... _________________ I'm a nut, but there are those who appreciate me for it. |

Just caught it and read it. That IS a funny story about the ice. I hadn't heard about that kind of thing happening, but I can see it in my mind clearly. ::chuckle:: Not for the first time do I wish I could draw.
A very interesting story so far, but the abusive relationship is (as I'm sure it's intended to be) depressing. Codependency is what holds many relationships together, but can be abused horribly. I'm sure I'm not the only one who would like to knock some sense into both George and Sarah's heads!
Be good,
Bearion |

I've already posted some comments in the "Act 0" topic but I agree with Bearion. That ice thing was hillarious and I think I've heard about something like that before.
We will have to see what comes out of Sarah's realationship... I certainly hope that George will accept his wife's new job since it seems to make her happy (a very important thing. I'm not happy at my job and that sucks royally). I think all we can do is wait and watch since I doubt that Nameless will tell us
Oh, that's not right. we can speculate! (even if it may be a little early for that ) What would happen if George would leave Sarah? Would she try to find comfort in the arms of one of the handsome males who work at ZZ Studios? Or one of the females???
BTW: Thanks for giving Tygon a cameo. Reading that made my day I hope I can repay that some day. _________________ Tygon Panthera - name and species
