Good Omens Is Twice As Good As It Needs To Be. Genuinely.

Good Omens is twice as good as it needs to be. Genuinely.

If it were written by a good, experienced TV writer who could move a story along but didn’t have the nuance and world building skill of Neil Gaiman. If the leads were played by a couple of good actors with perfectly decent chemistry, but not the incredible character depth, decades of film and theatre experience, and on-screen electricity of Michael Sheen and David Tennant. If it were art directed, designed, scored and costumed by competent professionals who were good at what they do but not extraordinarily dedicated to perfection. If all of that were true, it would be a good show, fun to watch and entertaining.

But it wouldn’t have broken my heart into a thousand pieces. It wouldn’t have millions of fans wondering how they’re going to wait literally years for the conclusion. It wouldn’t have spawned tens of thousands of works of fan fiction and art. It wouldn’t occupy the thoughts and hearts of so many people daily months and months after being released.

It’s such a good example of why good enough is fine sometimes but great is something truly to be strived for, appreciated, and treasured.

Good Omens Is Twice As Good As It Needs To Be. Genuinely.

I did ittttt

Hello!

My name is PrinceoftheBendedPaw and welcome to my blog!

(profile pic courtesy of the avatar creator from Rinmaru's Vampire Manga creator)

I have decided to create this blog to interact with other fanfiction writers, readers, and fandom enthusiasts as to help motivate myself as well as others!

I currently have my sole homebase on ye olde Fanfiction.net, but I am in the process of awaiting an invitation to also post on AO3. There appears to be a massive bot and scam problem on writing sites nowadays, which I am trying to overcome the best I can. Other writers have commiserated with me on the subject. Being absent from the fanfiction writing stratosphere for the last number of years only to come into contact with this issue has been jarring, to say the least.

I have written a few fanfiction for primarily Blue Exorcist, but nowadays, my hyperfixation has been Cult of the Lamb.

I'm still figuring out how I want to use this blog, but I'm open to suggestions!

i cant actually remember canon but i like to think it was clauneck that told them.

clauneck to me feels like he should be a neutral party, but he actively helps lamb and i like the idea its bc of crushing guilt

Ahh the conundrum of needing to be more financially secure so you need more hours to work yet you are too mentally unwell to actually attend work and this call out. Also the ceiling caved in the dining room

I’m considering putting out a trilogy on here born from an idea I put in a journal forever ago covering some gothic tales about witches and their familiars. I still need to finish the stories but expect them to come up soon.

It’s very much a WIP cuz I don’t even have a title yet 😂

Time to do some more witch research and gothic tales research!
