Is there a co-writer out there?

[misscam]

So, in preperation for "The Official Fanfiction University of CSI", I've set up an account for it - CSICo-ordinator

But I'm still looking for a co-writer for it.

I guess I should explain a bit for the unaware - years ago I wrote The Official Fanfiction University of Middle-earth (usually just called OFUM) where... well, I'll borrow the Fandom Glossary's description:

where badfic authors are kidnapped to a university in the fictional universe in question and subjected to educational torments by canon characters. A subgenre which has inspired fanfiction universities in other fandoms.

The idea is basically to be funny while explaining a few essentials of fanfic writing for the fandom. People get to enroll as you would any other University and get their fictional self kicked around a lot by Grissom&co. All in good fun, of course.

The idea rather caught on and people have borrowed my format to write Official Fanfiction Universities all over the place. To my eternal sadness, however, no one ever asked to do a CSI version. So I decided I'd just do it. However, I'm still writing a few other stories, so I would really like to have a co-writer on it. Preferably someone who has some fanfiction writing
experience, can be funny and know CSI pretty well.

Hmm one could get worried just filling out the form.

[anaside.livejournal.com]

Oh dear GOD, does this ever make me wish I was a good/established/well-versed CSI ficcer.

*cries*

(P.S. Wow, when you mentioned that you sometimes forget that you don't have the kind of stature in CSI that you did/do in LoTR, you weren't kidding about the 'stature' part, apparently. And I'm not sucking up - I've got no reason to suck up - I'm just saying.)

Hee.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

*offers tissue*

Mainly, I'm looking for someone I can be able to write and work with, you know? And be somewhat funny and know enough about the CSI fandom to be able to make some fun. That's what I'm looking for - how much experience and so on, is really secondary.

(Heh, yeah. I kinda do have a certain name for myself in the LotR fandom, which I don't really have in the CSI fandom - alas, I sometimes forget that. Heh. bad Cam.)

[kittkatbar77.livejournal.com]

ah, this does make me wish that i could write fanfic. i suppose maybe i'll just have to write some to have it kicked around by grissom&co. :P

i will however, fill out one part of the form...
in my own words, warrick is: so hot it's hard to stand

[ladyiapetus]

*pokes you* Thought you might want to know - your CSICo-ordinator account is actually linked to OFUM. I don't know if that was intentional or not, but...

And I'd fill out an application, but I'm much more comfortable reading (good)CSI fic than writing it. Then again, there is that "CSI: L.A." plotlet still running around in my head like mad...

[falena]

YAY!

Hope you'll find a co-writer soon!

This is going to be so much fun!

[misscam.livejournal.com]

I fixed it, thanks.

Well, having written CSI fic isn't techincally a must to enrol - it wasn't with OFUM and LotR fic.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

:P

As I said down below, you don't really have to written something.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Fingers crossed, yes.

And we'll see about the fun...

[unendingreverie.livejournal.com]

I definitely would love to co-write, but I've only written Lost, LotR, and HP... plus I'm 15 and too young to know how to write properly.

Good luck with finding a co-writer! :]

[kittkatbar77.livejournal.com]

well, if that's the case, i'd love to help out in any way i can. should i fill out the form?

[adraefan.livejournal.com]

Cam, you're not into Star Wars, are you? Well, either way, I am, and you're Norwegian, so we make a merry band! Look at this (http://reuters.excite.com/article/20050616/2005-06-16T152852Z_01_L16359330_RTRIDST_0_ODD-LIFE-PRINCESS-DC.html)! That's crazy talk!

[saxihighlandck.livejournal.com]

*rasies hand* Just tell when to send it in. I'm shameless.. so sue me. *not that kinda sue*

*looks around* Uh... Did I just admit that?

To quote Avenue Q
Is only for now! (George Bush!)

[autobadgirl.livejournal.com]

I'm funny, but I'm a newbie to the fandom. I'll happily be a junior adjunct co-writer.

Plus I'm off all summer! YAY!

[saxihighlandck.livejournal.com]

If you need plot bunnies... I can pass them to you, I have an over active imagination sometimes.

[nirix5.livejournal.com]

Is there a co-writer application? *is very, very interested* Most of my CSI stuff is posted in starsandtrucks, if you want to take a look at it.

[siraj.livejournal.com]

where do we send the form to, your e-mail? count me in on this

[nirix5.livejournal.com]

I love your icon. Is it from anything in particular?

[siraj.livejournal.com]

nope... custom avatar, courtesy of a friend of mine. Interested in getting an avatar of your own from her?

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

Though age isn't as much an issue as attitude sometimes.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

*blinkblink*

Well, I would put it past our good princess and her yuppie husband. It's a good thing they didn't name the heir.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Wel,, that'll be a bit later, when I've found my co-writer.

:P

[misscam.livejournal.com]

I envy you greatly.

And I'm sure you can advice me on the merry lives of teh Sara/Greg shippers. None shall be free from being poked fun at. Muhaha.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

*peeks*

You interested then? You do have the adventage that I rather know you (and you wrote in the sand for me, heh). You on any of the IMs so we can chat?

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Nah, I made a new e-mail for it. But it's not officially opened for enrolment yet.

[autobadgirl.livejournal.com]

Will do. Mockery is my favorite sport.

[ekwy.livejournal.com]

I'd REALLY like to help. I'm familiar with fanfiction, I write an OFU myself already, and I know the fandom. Not in every detail, mind you, so I might not be the best of help... It would probably be better if you picked someone else (I see you have a few to choose from) but you have my support, at least. If you're interested, I have a few PPC Agents who would just love to do their part. They're just hanging around in my head anyway, not doing much good.

A question, though. Will you use your Miss Cam for the role of course coordinator, or will you invent someone new?

I'm so looking forward to read this! *bounce*

[nirix5.livejournal.com]

Yay for sand writing!

Unfortunately, my computer is Linux. This means that I can't do AIM in any capactiy unless I'm up at school; however, I will be up there a lot pretty soon. My AIM is 'butterflied csi'. Lately, I've just been slowtiming conversations through LJ comments.

[nirix5.livejournal.com]

No, that's okay. It's just cute, and it reminded me of the fire lizards from Dragonriders of Pern. *grins*

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Gee, I could never tell :P:P

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Okay... How about you send me an e-mail (camilla.sandman at gmail dot com) and tell me a bit about what you'd like to do if you were co-writer of OFUCSI? Maybe a few classes, how one should mock shipper wars... Just whatever you think of.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Well, all help will be appreciated, so if you want to be a helping hand, I ain't saying no. The problem of the fandom is not really Sues though, so it would have to be a special kind of PPC agents...

Um, you know, not sure if it'll be Miss Cam or not. I might keep her, since I'm lazy.

:)

[siraj.livejournal.com]

That's just her style... but yes, I got a cavity from looking at it when she first showed it to me.

[siraj.livejournal.com]

*waits patiently*

[autobadgirl.livejournal.com]

So I can play too?

[misscam.livejournal.com]

But of course.

[insanityonline1.livejournal.com]

I'm always happy to pitch in and help if it is needed.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Well, some C/G perspective will be needed...

[chem-nerd.livejournal.com]

Well, I'll definitely enroll. I'd be happy to cowrite, but, given my limited time during the school year, it might be better if I just acted as a consultant on science-geek and lab type things. My characterization is a little shaky, but I know my GCMS.
