Already on the other thread. Sorry
"In the beginning JoF created a website called NewsBiscuit. 2 Now the website was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the internet, and the Spirit of JoF was hovering over the forum.
3 And Jof said, “Let there be a fight,” and there was a fight. 4 JoF saw that the fight was good, and he separated the fighting from the piss-taking. 5 God called the fight “Chat Room" and the piss-taking he called “Writers' Room.” And there was fighting and-piss taking and everyone had a high old time right from the first day."
I think we have to spell it 'J-F' in order not upset the fundamentalists in the other thread. And to think I nearly uploaded a picture of him that I done on paint. Got to go, next safe-house.
Iroq, there was an excellent Newsbiscuit novel on here once upon a time. Epic, I think would be an accurate description.
Edit - found a link. Worth a look if you have time and don't mind reading at one laugh per hour.

BOAST WARNING
Here's a little success story. Off the back of that ongoing novel Lindy Moone invited me to contibute to a charity anthology which you can all buy on Amazon (I may have mentioned this before!) http://www.amazon.co.uk/For-Whom-Bell-Trolls-Triumph-ebook/dp/B00UZN00G6/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top?ie=UTF8
There is one other biscuiteer included too but as he is incognito I won't tell you who.
I was particularily pleased that on the American site one reviewer singled out my story (under my real name, DP) and Lindy's story. http://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/R2IVYBX0GUDF0C/ref=cm_cr_pr_rvw_ttl?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B00UZN00G6 even though she only gave us 4 stars, the bitch!.
Without the excellent NB novel none of this would have happened. and now, instead of doing some work I'm going to waste the afternoon re-reading it.
I skipped to page 9 where I compiled a character list with the originators. Sad to see so many names no longer here and at least one who is, more sadly, no longer anywhere.
37. And the people did agree that Nice Admin Lady was indeed once more a virgin, untouched by any human. 38. And the people did declare this a miracle of great proportions .39. A feast was held in her honour, which came to be known as the Feast of Mugs on St Admin's Day .40. And for a thousand years there was sectarian strife over the placement of and requirement for an apostrophe.
