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

clap, clap, clap, clap! Brava!

Wonderful! Oh, it leaves so many little threads fluttering loose, so tantalizingly, even while it explains some things in The Pensioner. Did you know all this backstory on Amanda when you wrote The Pensioner?

The remarkable thing? You've done just enough to anchor this story in the late 60s and very early 70s. Just the way Mary Stewart anchored her stories postwar in England or in the mid-sixties in Greece and France. It isn't 'dated,' so much as anchored in the sensibilities of the time. Excellently, evocatively done.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

What Beverly said about anchored, not dated. And the other nice things, too!

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

Nope. Only the bit about the confrontation in the shop on her birthday. No details at all, and none of the rest.

It's damned near 15,000 words long. Crikey.

I'm thinking the final bit (third story, that is, which aint gonna happen yet) will have the big happy ending, at least by my standards of happy endings.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Set post-Pensioner?

If only Giles weren't dead.

Post-Pensioner.

Hey, it's my fic, godamnit. If we put Wes in bed with Andrew, I can keep my honeybunny Rupert alive.
