Bio:

The Pretender was/is my favorite show. I've never been involved in another fandom. I started writing FF because Jonathan Yip asked me to write a story and woudn't take 'No' for a answer. So I wrote Melons. That's when I discovered how much fun writing fan fic really was! After that I was hooked! I haven't written anything for a long time but who knows! ;) There's always tomorrow.

Update: OK, well 'Tomorrow' came in Sept '06. Had to write something for the 10th year annversay of the Pretender. And I'll be damned! I'm back to writing again.

Reading suggestions: Fire! End of Pursuit are 2 of my best. Retribution if you're feeling dark. Love Is Blind and Writer's Block if you need a laugh.

Title: Chapter 1: The Alley

Very good! Intense and exciting, nicely done. Looking forward to more and the wild ride ahead. I have a feeling your Muse has a exciting journey (story wise) in store for us.

Word of warning:  Sarah is tough so if you accept her offer of beta reader just be prepared!  She can make you cry  and is unmerciful as I well know from experiencing her tough beta'ing first hand!  So just remember  I warned you!

Author's Response: Thanks for the review and the--um--warning:)  I have a feeling I'm gonna need tough if this story is going to live up to expectations.  Glad you enjoyed it, and I hope you keep reading.

Title: Chapter 2: Animus

Very nice and well done.  This chapter is thoughtfully written and very cleaverly crafted, a nice piece of intense and cliffhanging reading.  Good luck on your next chapter and good luck with Sarah!  You'll need it.  (big smile)

Author's Response:

Thanks, RaChell!  And no, Sarah has not breathed fire through her emails. . .yet;)

Love ya, Sarah and RaChell!

Title: Chapter 3: Decisions

Nicely done MP!  Can't wait to see where you take us on this wild ride with the next chapter!  Looks like you're surviving Sarah.  (wink, wink)

 

Oh yes, just remembered that I must throw soft center chocolates and pink roses at your Muse's feet.  Watch out for the  thorns!



Author's Response:

Glad you enjoyed it!  Hope the wild ride didn't make you too nauseated:)

You throw those roses and chocolates; maybe that'll distract my muse long enough for me to snap a leash on her and keep her from running away:)

Title: Chapter 5: Ghosts and Ghouls

Aw MP, this sucks!  As much as it hurts me to say that, really and truly it does suck.  You give us two (yes I counted them!) great chapters  and then leave us wanting for more!  You tease us and have us on the edge of our seat and then expect us to leave glowing reviews? 

OK, it's great, it's wonderful but you're mean and cruel making us wait for another chapter!MP.jpg



Author's Response:

(deep sigh, tragic face)  All my labor of love, and what do I get?  "Mean and cruel."  You're making my inner child cry . . .

Seriously, though, glad you like it enough to get ticked at me.  If I could teleport myself and my betas into an alternate time continuum so I could publish a new chap every day I would.  Since I can't you'll just have to bear with me.  More is coming, I promise!

Title: Chapter 6: Believe Your Own Lies

Well done!  Now we just need a another chapter or two, or three or what the heck!  Make it several more!

Author's Response:

Thanks, RaChell!

I know it's been an obscenely long hiatus, but I'm *almost* ready to post the next chap.  After that, updates will be coming fairly quickly, so I'll try not to torture you too much.

Thanks for the kind words!  Yes, believe it or not, I am still writing.

Very interesting Gena.  A bit confusing unless you know the chatacter but quite a intriguing undertaking, merging 4 shows into one big cross over.  Kudos on doing a great job explaining each character and their show.

BTW where is your other story??????

OK, I see you skipped ahead from the classic TP in the beginning to the future at the end. 

And yes, I got a chuckle out of that play on words 'Less Than Perfect'



Author's Response:

Hi RaChell!

Thank you!  And I had to find a way to use "LESS THAN PERFECT".  Glad you liked it.

Cute story Kris!  I esp. liked the dance scene with the brother and Miss Parker at Hyper.  You pulled things together nicely.  Interesting twist on the clone concept too.

Glad to see your Muse is working again, you need to feed your Muse more chocolate and Pretender epsiodes.  (big smile) We need more stories from you.

Oh not you too!  You're as baffling as Sarah with hers.  I want to say who I think it is but yet at the same time I know you're sneaky.  (wink, wink)  And I'll probably guess all wrong!

Author's Response:

Don't be shy!  I don't bite people who leave me reviews!  I posted on the forum, but they got it in three guesses, so my fun was short lived.

Good story and very suspensefull!  But the ending leaves the reader with a strange feeling, almost as if it's not really the ending.  You need to add another chapter to answer the question of what Raines did to Jarod, why Sydney needs to know and finish it off.
