Title: Swept Away! - Two Boys' Adventures on The Great River
(“With A Thousand Elephants!”) - A Pseudo Victorian Boys Adventure
Author: Derien
Genres: Science-fiction/Victorian Adventure/Queer Teen Romance.
Notes: Original story, inspired by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, P.G. Wodehouse, G.M. Fenn, Edgar Rice Burroughs and Daegaer.
My utmost, heartfelt thanks to Eor for brainstorming, listening, arguing, poking me with a pointy stick and supporting me in this venture since June of '05 - I'm sure the experience would have killed a lesser man. Daegaer has also been very patient, and several others (Littleredhead stands highly among them) have offered corrections, thoughts and considerations which have been very helpful.

Yes I'm freaking terrified to start posting this. Note that it's been a year and a half since I started writing this. At this rate I should probably only post one installment per month, and even so I'll have to write twice as fast as I have been if I hope to keep ahead.
Any criticisms will be listened to and treasured! They may not be acted upon immediately, but they will certainly be stored away for future reference.
(Also, I figured out how to set my spellchecker for UK English, but I'm not sure that I believe it really worked, so let me know if you see something that's not right.)
ETA: It hadn't really worked. NOW Eor has properly fixed my spellchecker to use UK English, and this post has been updated with proper spelling. I think I also fixed all the "it's" mistakes and adjusted the wording where I had used the same word several times close together. Plus added a paragraph about housing, because Daegaer wrote something really nice that I wanted to use, and I just can't stop screwing around with stuff.
ETA 11/25/07 - Replacing LJ cut with link to my website so as not to have my story stored on LJ.
