Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore
The Brain Thief. 32,000 words of Discworld, mostly involving grown-up Young Sam Vimes.
This story has been in my head for so long that it's kind of weird to have it written down somewhere that's not my brain.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
May I just say that Holli's story is awesome.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Connie, it took me a bit too long (although, in my defense, he's not yet born, where I am in the series). It took me an even more embarrassingly-long time on Meg , though.
Very nice story, with the social commentary and the sad-making at the end.

This Sherlock/Addams Family crossover may be of interest to some of you.
There are three parts, with mild John/Sherlock UST in the first two parts, and some creepy-disturbing (yet oddly sweet) shippiness in the last part.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Second that rec, and the commentary.

I have Holli's story queued up to read in full.
But I had to stop by and recommend this: [link]
It's Little House on the Zombie-Infested Prairie. So awesome: both creepy and cheerful, the way the books were.
In other news, my oh-so-helpful dude who promised to proofread my Narnia novel never replied, so clearly the nice comments really were dependent upon him telling me everything that was wrong with it first. Heh.
IOON, I find it hard to reply appropriately to people who tell me, in all earnestness, "Keep writing!", as if I were a fourteen-year-old just starting to write. It's simultaneously endearing and condescending.

Oh, lord, yes. And I have a devoted reader who adds "Will we be seeing the next chapter soon?" to every comment. I'm glad she's eager, but dammit, you're not paying me to write.
