You might call this an expansion of Offer #1. I will write drabbles (100 words) or double drabbles (200 words) based on the Dickens novel of your choice -- except Martin Chuzzlewit, because I haven't read it yet. You may specify one or more characters that you want in it, and the mood you want (dramatic, humorous, romantic, etc.). Or, if you prefer, you can leave the details up to me. Drabbles: $2 apiece, double drabbles: $3 apiece. Comment at this post if you want to take advantage of this offer, and please specify whether you'd prefer to pay by PayPal or check. Stories will be posted on Fanfiction.net, and a link will be placed in the comment section here.
Samples of my work are available here.
Ooh, I'll make two requests!
1) Write a double drabble dealing with Uriah Heep and Agnes without David present, like a missing scene from the book - whichever mood you like (though I doubt it can be particularly humorous). ^_^
2) Write a double drabble where Mr. Guppy accidentally runs into Mr. Woodcourt. :P
I'll pay via Paypal.

Okay, the "David Copperfield" story is done.

The "Bleak House" story is going to take a little longer. I need to refresh my memory on a few things. Stay tuned!

Um, okay, wow. And I'm forgetting here why *I'm* the one writing all the DC fanfic?
Seriously, that was amazing! Great job! Everything about it was spot on, and you fit so much emotion and action and thought into those 200 words! I especially loved this part: "avoids those eyes as she reaches the bottom of the steps, afraid to see again that ugly fire flickering in their reddish depths" - wonderful imagery there. I also liked that you included Uriah helping her to her chair...makes sense but I never thought of that ceremony. Just all around brilliant, I can't wait for the Guppy one!

That Guppy, lol. Thanks Gina!! BTW, how do I pay for these - I still owe payment!
And to all those who have commissioned drawings I apologize I haven't finished them yet - first of all I lost track of time and now family affairs are cutting in, but I haven't forgotten and they've been started, just not finished.

Well, it took forever, but my double drabble based on "Barnaby Rudge" (requested by David) is FINALLY up. Thanks for your patience, David.

Oh, and while I was at it, I wrote a drabble for myself. :-)
