As you know, Matticus and I just finished up a story in which we saved his Kingdom from sparkly vampires. Along the way, we ran into many of our fellow bloggers. These are all amazing people. Not only did they make the writing process fun, they were also very good sports about the whole thing.
There are a few of our fellow bloggers who we would like to give extra special thanks to:
First and foremost, we’d like to thank Goldfish for agreeing to be our villain. Every good story needs a good villain, and you were the best, my fishy friend.
We’d also like to give thanks to Faithhopechocolate, who took the time to write her own story about the happenings in the Kingdom. Your adventure is a welcome addition to the Kingdom’s legends.
Last in this category, but certainly not least, is another blogger who was awesome enough to play our other big villain: Jaded. You certainly kept us on our toes, my dear.
Next, we’d like to thank all of the bloggers who were gracious enough to take part in our silliness. Our story wouldn’t have been the same without the 33 grams of awesome provided by (in order of appearance):
- Rara
- Jenn
- Rutabaga
- El Guapo
- Bardictale
- Steph
- Hook
- Len
- Grayson
- Twindaddy
- Art
- Alice
- Zoe
- Elyse
- Miss Four Eyes
- BrainRants
- Deb
- Dani
Finally, we’d like to thank everyone who read our story. A story, no matter how good, is nothing without an audience, and you are the best audience a couple of silly kingdom savers could ask for. We really hope you enjoyed the story and wish for you to come back for our next project, whatever that may be.
Reblogged this on The Matticus Kingdom and commented:
Thank you, thank you, thank you. Thank you to everyone who played along with our silliness. Thank you for everyone who read, and commented, and even wrote their own additions to the storyline. And thank you to Revis, who wrote all the funny part, all the action scenes, and all the plot twits. The story itself was even his idea! Honestly… I’m not sure what I contributed at all. Anyway, if you enjoyed the Save the Kingdom series make sure you show some love to all the guests who made it that much more special!
Ooh, I still have parts to read.
Maybe you should release it as an e-book!
We’ve considered that option… but, we weren’t sure who would be interested in it… Plus, all the links to the blogs would get scrapped… we could put together a page with links in it, though… Hmmm. Tempting, tempting. I guess the real question is, “Why wouldn’t we do it?” I don’t have an answer to that…
It’s hard to read a whole book or novella in blog form! So go for it! It’s a fun story. I’d like to fill in the missing bits!
Well done, y’all!
Ummmmmm…..
Did you not have a part in it? Did we miss thanking you?
Dang. How did that happen?
If you didn’t have a part, I’m going to have to write an epilogue or something where we all go watch a baseball game together… If you did have a part, let me know ASAP and I’ll get your name added to the list!!
No, I wasn’t in it. I am a lowly peon of the overall kingdom. It’s not as bad as it sounds though; it beats being a sparkly vampire or target-challenged foot soldier 🙂
If you listen to certain stromtroopers they will claim that it is all the fault of the weapons they are using…
Okay! I can’t believe we didn’t write you in. I feel terrible and will have to write a little vignette as a follow-up story.
Sure, probably has nothing to do with the messed up DNA from the big clone experiment. They were the original “Dolly the Sheep”.
Anyway.
Don’t feel terrible (if you are serious); I didn’t expect to be in and liked reading along 🙂
Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!!!
wait… is that not what we were talking about?
Ni!
Um. Don’t make me pull out the holy hand grenade.
Do I look like a bloody rabbit to you?
Hmm… I’m trying to think of a hair/hare joke…
Instead, I’ll just say, “Always look on the bright side of life” and keep the movie hop going.
Blessed are the cheesemakers!
And ex-parrots.
And unladen swallows.
African or European? It’s an important distinction.
Especially when it comes to bringing coconuts into certain climate zones.
I usually just grip them by the husk…
It’s about the weight ratio! A bird carrying a one pound coconut?
That would be a problem for a European swallow, but not an African swallow…
Though, that does make me curious about other things.
Why an African swallow would a) have access to a coconut in the first place and b) carry it to jolly ol’ England.
And what the average airspeed velocity of both a coconut laden and an unladen swallow would be.
And what your favorite color is.
Blue!
And how do you know so much about swallows?
(think Revis is going to throw us over the bridge yet?)
You have to know these things when you are King, er, um, The Jester.
(Revis is going to love every minute of this.)
Good, then he won’t have to sell us off for scientific experiments.
Oh, nice switch!
Well, you know what they say: Every sperm is sacred.
And they all are great, and if a sperm is wasted, then God gets quite irate.
And, that’s something we all wish to avoid.
Unless we’re Protestant… Are we protestant?
Have you had a baby each time you’ve had sex? Because if not then I suppose you are fiercely Protestant.
I plead the fifth.
And there was much rejoicing 🙂
Hahahahahaha
Exactly.
Nobody liked those minstrels anyway.
There seems to be an epic reenactment happening in my comment section. I may need to start charging admission to view this.
Good plan. 😀
Thank you, but, like Matticus, I would’ve sworn that we wrote a part for you. Since we didn’t, I’ll blame Matticus. As the Jester of the Kingdom, he’s technically in charge, therefore it’s his responsibility.
It was an honor.
Next time, I’d like to either kill someone or die in a messy, yet delightfully ludicrous manner.
Didn’t you die in a messy and delightfully ludicrous manner this time?
There are never enough messy yet delightfully ludicrous deaths in the sphere!
That sounds like a challenge.
I do enjoy a good challenge….
Awww – thanks!! T’was awesome!!
Your research was invaluable. I think. I don’t really remember… that was a long time ago…
I’m honored to be your villain, even though you stabbed me in the back. Twas fun. Except for the backstabby part, cowards. 🙂
Hey! Don’t throw me in with him? I was facing you when you got stabbed!!
Cowardice?
Is it just me, or does any time that word come up do you immediately think of the Back to the Future movies?
I regret the backstabbing. Now that I think about it, I should’ve had you banished into a place where you judge Mad Libs contests for eternity.
So sorry I have been negligent, but I have been to everyone.I kid of dropped out for a while.Are you dropping out, as well? I hope not. Best wishes.
Not dropping out. We’ve just wrapped up this story… There are other stories to tell.
Cheers! What are you going to be doing next?
No plans just yet. We’ve got to come up with a good idea first.
That shouldn’t be too hard for you guys, no?
Standing Ovation for you my good Sirs. I thoroughly enjoyed your awesome little piece of imagination. I am eagerly awaiting your next project.
Thank you, dear. We are glad you enjoyed it. Thank you for allowing us to include you into our silliness.
I felt so chuffed you included me!
I am so honored to be part of your awesome story! You guys are the best!
Any story is instantly better when it includes fine people, such as yourself. Besides, there had to be some mention of bowel movements in there, and nobody is as good as you in talking about BMs.
