The Mart & ian Show.
Guide to planet Earth.
A humerous look at some serious subjects.

Welcome to Peer Review. I sorta liked this but you need to take it out of Peer Review and enter it the Alternate Writing Workshop. Peer Review is for mostly factual articles, creative parodies and stories go in the AWW.

hi there and welcome to h2g2. Elektra is correct - if you need help in moving your Entry into the Alternative Writing Workshop maybe this part of our FAQs might be useful:


6 How do I remove an Entry from a Review Forum?

If you are the author of an Entry, or the person who put that Entry into a Review Forum, then you will see a blue X button next to that Entry when you look at the relevant Conversation Forum for that Review Forum. To find the Conversation Forum go to the relevent Review Forum page and click 'XX More Entries in Review' at the bottom of the page. When you find it, clicking the X next to the title of the Entry in that list will remove it from the Review Forum.

7 How do I move an Entry from one Review Forum to another?

You have to remove your Entry from the first Review Forum and then resubmit your Entry to a different Review Forum. This in turn will create a new Review Conversation that will be attached to the Entry.

Welcome to the ASS, which provides a friendly home for poetry, fiction and personal accounts.

I love the idea of two Martians (are they both Martians?) discussing earth, humans and the wierd things they do.

I can see that the Martians might laugh at our system of organ transplantation and think it very primitive, or morally repugnant.

But I dont quite get the joke about Ian being let out of the wardrobe . And I don't quite understand why Mr Branson is at the party.

I have a feeling you need some background - who these characters are, where they are and what they're doing - before these sketches can reach their potential.

Sorry!. I should have put AWW.

OK Thanks for your help.

Hi and thanks fro your comments.
Will reply in full later but for now...
wardrobe: I was thinking of E.T.
Richad Branson: He is now organizing space travel/flights...
And yes, lots of background needed. Tyring to do too many projects at the moment. 3 books up on amazon to promote...

More soon.

Three books?

Yep, all on amazon. But not sure if allowed to publicize on here?
Don't want to break any rules ( let's face it, I do that everywhere else) Oh and I love poetry too.

Good for you.

I don't know of any rule against a bit of self-publicizing, especially now we've floated free of the BBC. But I'm not custodian of the rules. I'm not sure who is.

Rules are made to be broken. And this certainly breaks a few rules. But it does get its humor across. In the time poor world we live in, few of us have time for character development and background details. I went to see a famous play read on stage by professional actors. They had very little in the way of props and sets. Yet their talent shone through and I was entertained, if a little confused at times.. That is what this was like. I had no idea where they were going with this skit, but I enjoyed the ride. The treatment is called Improv. in theater circles. It is cutting edge theater and challenges the imagination. Well done.
