MONDAY, September 19th at 7:00pm: AVAST! THERE BE PIRATE (George)!

The Fleets In!

Cap'n R. Dismantled and The Dread Pirate Caledonia Skytower, celebrating International Talk Like a Pirate Day with 100w Stories from the "George" canon. Or is that "cannon"?

George the Landlubber

by Laurence Simon

George was a pirate, but he wasn’t a very good pirate.
He was completely clueless when it came to the jargon of his profession.
For example, he had no idea what “landlubber” meant.
Was it a parrot species?
Maybe it was some kind of sea monster, he thought.
But then, why would his crewmates be calling all the townspeople that?
Or, for that matter, George , when he screwed something up really badly.
At the next port, he went to the library, and he asked for a Pirate-to-English dictionary.
“You are a total landlubber,” said the librarian, and threw George out.

WEDNESDAY, October 27th at 7pm: FLAMING PUMPKINS in The Glen!

Our longtime friend R. Dismantled has selected 248 100 word stories for the season. How many do you think can be done in an hour?  

Long ago, he swore an oath to write a 100 word story every day until the day he died. He's not dead yet. http://oneadayuntilthedayidie.com/

The Pumpkins are ablaze and await you in The Glen!

WEDNESDAY, September 16th at 7pm: "R is for RANDOM"

R. Dismantled presents randomly selected 100 word stories ("Drabble") live on the Story Floor!

 Long ago, he swore an oath to write a 100 word story every day until the day he died. He's not dead yet. Check out http://oneadayuntilthedayidie.com/

Always unpredictable and irreverent, no subject is too sacred, no cow too holy for R. not to pull it out, examine it, and bang it on the table a few times before putting it back where he found it - albeit slightly crumpled.

AND, as if that weren't enough, he looks *good* in black!

CONGRATULATIONS! 100w Stories Podcast Celebrating 15 Years!

Long ago, he swore an oath to write a 100 word

story every day until the day he died. He's not dead yet. Today R. celebrates 15 years to that commitment at TerpsiCorps Artwerks at 5pm slt. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/TerpsiCorps%20Isle/50/171/1800

There are very few people that Seanchai Library has counted as "friend" longer than R. Dismantled.  He has been a supporter, an advocate, and a fellow storyteller from our early days.

"I think he is one of the most unrestrainedly genuine people I know," said Seanchai Library's Caledonia Skytower, "I have seen him over the years be brutally honest, sometimes abrasive when that's what he felt, and I have also experienced his kindness and profound generosity. For a sentient clockwork, he is about as *real* as it's possible to be."

Seanchai Library salutes this incredible accomplishment and the creative soul behind it. "Always unpredictable and irreverent, no subject is too sacred, no cow too holy for R. not to pull it out, examine it, and bang it on the table a few times before putting it back where he found it - albeit slightly crumpled.  And no, he NEVER has opinions!"

WEDNESDAY, May 29th at 7:00pm: 100w STORY PODCAST 14th Anniversary!

Story writer, story-teller, commentator, raconteur – R. Crap Mariner is all of these, and more. 

On May 31st, 2005, after being inspired by both a friend and Woody Allen to write 100-word stories  – or “drabbles” – he created the 100-word Story podcast, promising to write a story a day until the day he dies. 

Fourteen years on, Monsieur Mariner is still writing  – and still reading his stories in what is quite probably among the longest-running daily podcast of original material in the world.

Regardless of what the poster image looks like, he's not dead yet (and we are VERY glad of that!).

Seanchai Library is delighted to host the 14th anniversary of the 100-word story podcast, for one of our oldest friends on the grid. R. Crap read from his stories, which will cover a wide range of topics, just like his podcasts. There might even be a George the Pirate story or two.

R. Crap Mariner, still  alive, in Voice.
