technical difficulties

[lettered]

-Does anyone know what happened to panlexicon.com? That might be my number one favorite web site, but now my browser is telling me it's unsafe :o(

-I have been trying to update a story at fanfiction.net for like, the past week and a half. I can't get into either HP story I've posted there, but I can edit all my other stories. I emailed support twice, and they haven't gotten back to me. I don't really know what to do about it.

In other news housemate and I have written most of the proposal for our agent to send out to publishing companies. My life, I don't understand what happened to it.

Panlexicon is down? Woe!

Is it the book the agent originally had in mind, or a variation?

It's a false history of H. B. Ogden, with fake letters written by him and fake excerpts from the book and so on, framed by me an S as pretentious academics with nothing better to do. Sort of like Byatt's Possession,, except without the story about the modern people, and the letters, tearsheets etc are reproduced so that you can see photos of them in their original state. There's commentary on The Wire, commentary on the evolution of story-telling media, commentary on academia, and commentary on how the Industrial Revolution informs society today, and how Victorian society parallels ours in a lot of interesting ways because of the technological revolution.

Should be fun and nerdy. Might not be the very first thing I would have chosen to do, but . . . I like false histories and I love sounding pretentious, and I think some of the messages will be meaningful.

Like the Horatio Hornblower bio! Ha, I like it! I will totally review it for TWC.
