If 2010 was the Year of the Ghost in my weird personal cosmology, 2011 is going to be the Year of the Rabbit. One rabbit in specific: Velveteen, former member of the Junior Super Patriots, West Coast Division, reluctant superhero, and too long a stranger around these parts.
I can't commit to a story a month for the whole year, but I can commit to a story every other month. So here you go: I will be writing and posting a minimum of six Velveteen stories during 2011. Not sure who she is? Check out the series landing page for background and archived stories. I'll be bringing the website up to speed on her adventures, and then a new adventure can finally begin.
Coming in January, "Velveteen vs. the Secret Identity."
Clearly "Mary Poppins" got made, too. At least, I personally know now prior art which would explain the Nanny.
That's a tough part of making any Alternate Reality fiction, isn't it? If your superheroes/magic/etc. isn't a secret that is completely hidden from the world, then it would change a whole lot of the mundane world, and pretty soon a whole lot of that world doesn't make sense. If you're the sort who studies history and notices how these things all affect each other, of course.
