I thought it was Slan too, but that didn't quite fit.

You might try spending the day at the library browsing the science fiction section.

One side benefit of this, spending the day googling the word telepath brings you to some really "interesting" websites. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Ooooooh, writing contest. Sounds fun. Course I'm concentrating on Hell is For Heroes right now, so I might not have time.

OR....

I could just make Alice telepathic! Victory would be mine!

I won't though, coz she's no where near creepy enough to be a telepath in that universe, and plus it'd just make her WAY too similar to River from Firefly. So Alice'll just have to remain mind-blind. And points if you can tell me what work of fiction that term is from.

dmn, I think I may have read the book you're referring to, despite being under 35, and I'm kicking myself trying to remember the title. I might still even have my copy back home in Dublin, so I'll see what I can scrounge up when I get back.

Yeah, but you only get points if you tell me which on I'm thinking of. Bwaha! Victory is mine!

Oh, that's easy.

Whichever one you're thinking of.

OK, I've got an idea for my story entry coming along nicely in my head. We ought to set up a page somewhere with all the details of the contest (word limit, closing date, how to enter) clearly laid out.

Not that much work. Just upload a bunch of text files and keep a chart of ID numbers and names.

Will you be posting instructions, or did the enthusiasm die out?

Did you ever write the story? I started one; will finish if others are still interested.
