A Fanfic Challenge

[fabrisse]

I want exotic -- location, act, pairing. I want PWP. I want Lush.

I was over at www.Lush.com and noticed that they had some products that sounded like fic titles. Now I want someone to write the fic to go with them. Any rating. If I get more than 10, I'll find someone to set up a web page for it.

Take me away from all this.

Please.

Suffered through Erewhon

[cicatrix-zero.livejournal.com]

Basically, here's what I'm writing about: Plato writes TheRep. Fast forward, then the Prince is written. Then More writes 'Utopia' as a satire in response to the Prince, combining ideas from TheRep. and The Prince. This is then furthered by Orwell, [in 1984] by showing what it would be like to live in Utopia.

It's not a great paper, but it's not too bad.
- I'm not really mentioning G's Travels, but I am including Candide.
- I'll choose door #2: we as a species are merely doing our darndest to avoid the dystopias out there

Yes, I am interested. My particular interest is how western dis/utopian writings (and movements!) have shaped the current state of political rhetoric. Or put another way, "Why has 'utopian' become an insult? For how long has that been the case?"

For what are you writing this paper? Is this an on-going interest, or a one-off for you?

Are you in the Boston area, by any chance? BTW, you can extrapolate my email address by taking my username and emailing to it at mixolydian.org.

I had not heard that More's Utopia was meant as a satire. That may be because I live under a rock. Or is this a theory of your own? (See, this is why I should get out more.)
