Sweetpea Manor Musings

I totally forgot that Richard Manning was a guest and he has a new webisode show at Froonium.com if you're interested. The show is called Fusion and if there is interest and financing, there will be more. The first ep was done with everyone volunteering their time. It was interesting. I do wonder if a show stays as a webisode, will the format be like the old serials, always ending on a cliffhanger?

He also said to check out strike.tv as that's where the writers were putting content while they were on strike.

Back to Fusion and Manning, he thinks the future won't have a division between content providers and fans. The site will welcome fanfic and fanart. And it's highly likely that the best fanfic could end up in a podcast with the actors reading the story.

My, my how things have changed!

Saturday and Sunday I was at the Farscape CreationCon in Burbank and I had a lovely time. My good friend from up north, feltedhare, came down for it, so it was more of a visit-with-a-friend sort of thing for me. I watched Farscape and loved it but was never fannish about it (nevertheless this was probably my 5th Farscape con. Go figure!) I didn't bring my camera to this event, so no photos. :(

Oh, and deej1957? I got Ben to autograph the book. :)

And lastly, while I was gone, Brindle disappeared for two nights. He came back on Saturday night, and was emotionally needy. In fact, he's still quite needy. He's claimed the bathtub again and pops out for a cuddle whenever anyone goes in the bathroom. He is such a strange cat....
