It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

Oh, nice. I haven't watched an episode of MASH in fifteen years and that brought them back very clearly indeed. Are you going to be evoking more of the post-war fifties era? There's a nice taste there already.

Question:

I may not be as clever as I think I am eve.

Ever? Even? Someone called Eve?

Deborah, I love your story, first person and all. Plei, very good, but I'm not sure what the third part of your trifecta is, either. The fork in the eye? Am, over the years I've watched many MASH eps, but haven't for a long time. I haven't thought about those characters for a long while, but you made me want to again.

(Whoops - my last post was reacting to first piece. You got the second one up fast....)

I'd like to know a bit more about Peg's personality - it really wouldn't take much. Most women of the time wouldn't be nearly that elastic about things, so she's very strong. Is this a diary she's keeping? I'm curious about her.

See, now, I'm thinking less about the show and the plot than I am about the character. Goes back to the convo with Connie last night. She's interesting to me.

If that in any way implied that there could be a sequal, I am blind and deaf to the notion.

Edit: no, the second post satisfies that. Good.

Hum. You're then wanting me to take it out of the context in which I'm writing it ("Hey! Wouldn't it be cool in Hawkeye and BJ could actually be together without having Peg die or divorce him?") and turn it into more original fiction. Which would be good for me as a writer, I'm sure. But harder work.

I'll think about it.

In a fandom as small as M*A*S*H slash, that's quite an achivement. t grins Thanks!

I can't get that to make sense to me. It's early (I overslept and am still barely into first cup of coffee), so it's probably my brain not turned on yet. But - what does it mean, please?

It means I changed a sentence mid-stream, got distracted and never fixed it.

No, no, not necessarily; just that a few more paragraphs about her as a human being would completely bring her to life for me, and possibly make me wonder if she was a long-lost family member on my father's (American) side. That's why I wondered if this was a diary she was keeping, or a letter she was writing. if she's talking to someone, either another person in a letter or herself in a personal diary, that becomes very easy, as opposed to a narrator in the first person telling an audience.

Damn. That's incredibly muzzily phrased. More coffee, please.

Not that she wanted to, of course. Get the guilt bonus, that was, but it was still slightly better than going out.

Make more sense?
