Hi everybody.. new member here.. i'm not entirely sure what this community focuses on..(please don't hurt me!) But i've had trouble finding help for my story that i've been writing, it's focused arounds ships and sailing and such (and there are cannons!), and inspired by master and commander, though not based upon it.. (i haven't read any of the books but i have seen the movie- if this some how strays too close to one of the books let me know.. and i do plan on reading them eventually) Anywho i've been writing this story for a while, focusing around the navy and pirates in the mid-1700's, it's not very historically accurate, though i do make attempts! And i've been looking for constructive criticism because my friends don't really give me any, it's not really fan fiction of any sorts so i suppose i've been looking in the wrong places.. but i figured i'd post it here and see what you all think.. it's just the beginning of what i've written and any/all constructive criticism is welcome, if you want I'll post the rest too, or give yall a link. -Is it too goofy? -Not goofy enough? -Not realistic enough? -Not descriptive enough, too descriptive? -Too segmented? -other? Title: Piratey Type Story (until i come up with a better name) Author: muffinflavored Genre: Action/Adventure Rating: PG-PG-13 Summary: Starts with an introduction to the main character, giving a bit of background. Which goes into chapter one, the crew spots a french ship and pursue it, leading into a battle. ( Read more... ) Current Mood: hopeful | | Friday, October 1st, 2004 | 7:03 pm [gryphons_lair]

Some inspiration
This community's been terribly dead of late. If we're aiming for a wig abuse revival, how about a cannon fic revival too! I'm sure I could find a willing lieutenant or two around here... Anyway. A couple weeks ago commodorified and damned_colonial and prairiedaun and lasergirl and I all went to Kingston, ON. One of the things we did was tour Fort Henry and watch them fire the cannon. It's not quite the same as a ship, I know, but they are firing at an imaginary ship, and at least in Hornblower, the navy boys do find themselves on land rather a lot...

Baby Cannon
Wow, this community's been pretty slow. The last entry was May!! It's cannon-spotting season, and to add to the joy I have one of my very own to share with you. ( It's very teeny... ) | | Sunday, May 9th, 2004 | 7:06 pm [damned_colonial]

Cannon tour of Kingston
Just got home from a cannon tour of Kingston, Ontario with lasergirl. We took lots of photos of lovely lovely cannon,
most dating from the early 19th century.
( Pics behind the cut )
More pics here
including lots of close-ups of the various things engraved on the
barrels, and a whole long rambling post about cannons and fortifications and
stuff over in my LJ.

Nine Pounder!!
Today's walk about Toronto yielded this little puppy, a nine-pounder (throwing a 3-pound ball 1400 yards, I read on the plaque) in Artillery carriage. It was used in the Battle of Waterloo, date of manufacture circa 1813. It currently resides outside the Canadian Military Institute on University Ave at Dundas. Very nice patina! ( ...one picture... )There are many cannon around Kingston, which is where I'm going next, so I'll post pictures of them when I've got them. ARRRRR. | | Monday, April 12th, 2004 | 2:54 pm [damned_colonial]

Cannon pics
Since pewtergryphon was good enough to post the pic of the
cannon by the Horse Guards parade site, I thought I would post a couple
of pics I took of the cannon on the walls of Quebec City.
( Two large pics behind the cut )
Taken a couple of years ago when I went there for a few days between
Christmas and New Year. Pretty though they are, I think they might have
been a bit cold for, um, kissing.

GIP 2 of 3 (or more?)
Now that I've finally figured out how the Happy New Macintosh wants me to do it, I've grabbed and added damned_colonial's Hornbower icon and swopped for the week. Well, week-ish. I'm a flake. But I'll try to remember. Still need M and C. | | Wednesday, April 7th, 2004 | 7:56 pm [gryphons_lair]

A cannon, the Admiralty, and a Pretty Lad
In 1999 a friend and I spent 11 days in England. Today, I remembered that some of those pictures might be of interest to this group. So allow me to present: A very pretty cannon that lives on the Royal Horse Guards' parade ground in London. An equally pretty laddie in uniform on a wet, drizzly February day. And the facade of the Admiralty in Whitehall. Which just happens to be only a few doors down from the Horseguards'. Current Mood: busyCurrent Music: Clannad - Newgrange | 12:27 pm [damned_colonial]

GIP cannon_fic has its first icon, courtesy of the twisted talents of webcrowmancer! I am now soliciting cannon icons for Master and Commander and Horatio Hornblower, as well as good pics for fairestcat's planned Multi Fandom Cannon Icon, which she kindly offered to make us. If you've wandered in from another fandom and you've got a cannon fic, welcome! Let us know if you need an icon; someone will likely be up for the challenge. My eventual plan is to swop the single-fandom icons in and out around the multi one, changing maybe once a week or so, adding new ones for any new fandoms that wander in, so as to keep this community's multifandom character out there.
