[bironic]

I think it will come as a surprise to exactly no one who visited remixredux08 that I was the sad soul behind the 300-line mock-epic House remix, OMG so much work and I loved it.

Title: A Princeton Odyssey (Alexander Pope Is Turning In His Grave Remix)
Characters: House, Wilson, Cuddy
Summary: A night on the town, in heroic couplets.
Rating: PG
Warnings: May leave you thinking in iambic pentameter. Otherwise, none.
Spoilers: None
Word Count: 2,600 (ca. 330 lines)
Original story: Three Sheets to the Wind by joe_pike_junior
A/N: Thanks to synn and moonlash_cc for cheerleading as this came together bit by bit, and to joe_pike_junior, in whose story this one lurked.


O Muse! do sing to me of 'Ventures grand,
The great and glorious Exploits in the Land
Of Princeton, where resides our Hero true:
A Man with Razor Tongue and Eyes of Blue
Who makes Fun of the Morons, heals the Sick,
Outwits Disease with Mind and Med'cine quick,
Annoys his Friends by acting like a Dick,
Delights in fig'ring out what makes Men tick,
Lives by the Credo that Ev'ryone lies,
And swells with Pride each time a Patient cries.
...


And because I love talking about myself and House and writing and poetry all at once, I whipped up a DVD commentary on the writing process.

Now, off to see who's who, respond to feedback, and, er, do some legitimate work.

where else can a person geek out like this and not just be squinted at and shied carefully away from but instead have readers who also like it?

Oh, totally! \o/

Most of the Sentinel sonnets are on my website (linked at the bottom of this page.) Read them with an enormous grain of salt, though; they were a) my first foray into fanwriting of any stripe, and b) written nine years ago. *g* I like "On Fandom" and "Night Moves" best, of those.

Also on my site are a couple of House sonnets, of which Heat is by far my favorite...
