...Murmer...Stupid Computer Screwing up... it post this time? I hope so.
Oh Jeeze, now *I’M* blushing from all this praise!
And you are completely right about Wilderness stretching the reality boundaries. It was done with that sort of in mind. You see, the prompt for Wilderness came from reading the book jacket of a Karen Robards Book called “Heartbreaker” your typical one-class-above-harlequin-romance sort of books. Although I did, eventually, read Heartbreaker, it follows a completely different plot line for Wilderness. But when I was writing it, I was trying to recreate a sort of Die Hard/ Cliffhanger/ Bruce Willis sort of action adventure thing with a slice of a romance novel. I completely tabled high-level realism with that one. But I think I was upfront enough about it so people would see it for what it was. I personally, didn’t think Wilderness was one of my best (and I actually began writing it almost 3 years before I posted it!) although a lot of ppl I’ve met over FF.net remember me for that one. I left a comment on a story once and got one of those “OMG! I’m a SO totally flattered that YOU would read my Story! I just LOVED Wilderness!” and... to be honest, It was a toss up between feeling Creepy and Feeling Ecstatic! LOL!
And I am SO going to get onto that Drabble request! I love it! (although, at this stage of the game I can’t promise a fic by the 25th either. But I like your idea of By New Years! We should do a Fic Exchange on New Years [can you tell that I just fucking LOVE the holidays...]! I promise you a fic by New Years!) And...you really don’t have to give me anything! But...I’ll be honest.... I just love your dark humor style so much, I don’t want to pass up the opportunity to ask!!! I don’t really know what sort of prompt to ask for.... I just love your fics with Trowa acting something while keeping that snarky inner monologue going! (but that’s not a prompt, Damn it!) how about........... Party Crashers!
