Remix reveal
Apr. 27th, 2006 12:56 pmI shall have to go through and see who did what, and if there's any possibility that I ought to have been able to identify them...
My Remix story was Reindeer Games (the Like a Lightbulb remix), based on![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
jae_w's original. Thanks to chrismm for the beta work.
I was surprised, with this challenge, to find how much harder it was than I'd expected it to be. I've read plenty of remixes, after all... It was difficult to figure out where to put the story, on the spectrum of "oh, yes, I read this story... didn't I?" to "I wonder what the original story is like". I stuck pretty close to the original, really, but it is very interesting to read the wide range of choices the other authors have made.
When you're reading, or writing, a remix, what do you prefer? How different from the original do you like it to be?
