Friform wiki

Martin Swahn of Frispel has put up a wikipage for discussion of friform. Discussion will be in Swedish, so the huge troops of eager Americans will have to wait. It's here, and it's still totally empty. I guess I have to start it.

I have seen wikis being used as discussion places, it's not optimum, but it works...until the discussions grow to huge.

I think this wiki might be a good starting point for a combination of discussion and articles.

"Could you tell me something about Frispel? I'm currently too busy/lazy to read their homepage carefully. (I'm actually planning the friform scenario for Saturday, an activity I think you support.)"

Frispel writes scenarios and arrange friform at cons. They have also the intent to create one Frispel fanzine per year. They have kept to that promise two years now.

They also work quite closely with the older group NisseNytt. NisseNytt was very active in the 90's and had a quite well spread fanzine (could even be bought at Presstop, as I understand). NisseNytts Andreas Björkelid is the man behind the famous Lovecraftian Uppsala triology. He also writes in Frispel #2.

Sometime later (donät hold your breath) I will make a review of those two fanzines here and maybe also of the sole number of NisseNytt that I own.

But it's not a pure spam. The guy really believes that he is threatened to death by BBC. Read his blog.

I'm looking forward to the reviews of Fripel...

About the Wiki: I haven't had access to internet during the summer and am going to write more in/on/at it now as the term starts. I hope you join me there...
