I have a rather ancient printed out version of Chess somewhere, but I'm not quite sure where it is. belegcuthalion did some wonderful, illustrated PDF versions of the German translations she did of some of my fiction; I'd like to do something like that, one day. When I get time! But most of my short stories I don't have as printouts.

I didn't know you wrote R/S angst! I thought the Twins were your specialization! Are the stories up on your site? I must have a poke around!

[thrihyrne.livejournal.com]

Well... cough... twins are my specialization. But I started with R/S and they remain my fave. Well, okay, the two are equal within my Greater Writing Realm.

I have PWP R/S, and rather angsty R/S, which I suspect you would enjoy more, just in 'knowing' you.

It's hidden on my website, at http://www.thrihyrne.net/adultHP.html

Basically, you can go to the main site, then to the HP stuff, then click on George's vambrace (he's the one sitting at the lefthand corner of the page) and get to the adult site. That's where the R to NC-17 stuff is, including "Better Than the Pub" which is pure PWP, but also "Addiction," which begins with Sirius, then Remus, then Severus, and back again. Love that circular stuff, whether Tolkiehn or no. But there's also a variation on Kieslowski's "Blue, White, Red" that I wrote while I was in Scotland, with R/S in the 'Blue is for Betrayal,' and also I would recommend (because those HP authors whose opinions I adore had a lot of positive comments for this one, and I'd put it on the back burner for a few months and came back to it and it's garnered a fair amount of affirmative commentary) both The Essence of Black and Unleashed if you'd care to see my non-femmeslash slash writings within that angsty R/S context. But with the URL, you now have open season on all of my adult writings, though they are all currently HP. I've had a non-adult Amrod/Amras story in my head for months, but much to my dismay, only Snape (after my OFC in 'Daughters of Orome') has woken me up in the middle of night with dialogue, demanding me to write.

If you do choose to read my R/S, I would be thrilled to know your thoughts.

*back to dinner*


It's probably time to write original fic.

I've really enjoyed your R/S stories, particularly The Essence of Black. You get the 'Britishness' down really well, which is one of the most difficult things to do, I think.

Loved Black's opinion on LotR, LOL! And George's tattoo was hilarious!
