pin_drop updates

Update 1/11/2011 - Updated stories with alternative Google Docs provided by the author, who has deleted his/her LJ.

Miriam Princheck by pin_drop (kudos to chilly_flame for introducing me to this!)
"After all that, it turns out Miranda’s not invincible." Everyone's built up Miranda Priestley to a certain image and held her up to a high pedestal, but when the cracks start to show, can Andy reach out to Miriam Princheck in time? Definitely a well-written unique, layered, take on the dynamics between these two, and with enough plot twists to make your mind spin.

Working Title by pin_drop (Andy/Miranda, Miranda/Nigel, Miranda/OFC)
The author adds wonderful character depth in this novella-length piece for Miranda and Nigel and how they relate to each other. I ought to add this spoiler addenda that while I found the interactions for Andy/Miranda to be very awkward in several places (highlight to unspoil) (the marijuana elevator sequence, the Paris Andy melt down sequence, and "let's make Andy the cook" sequence)--many of which seem out of character and out of place--it doesn't take away the awesomeness that is part 2 and the last sequence of the fic. Unconventional and not readily categorizable, indeed...

That was quick!

I've deleted my journal because of LJ's latest security lapse. (If you don't know what I'm referring to, you can read about it here: http://eruthros.dreamwidth.org/329681.html) I won't be coming back to Livejournal, but tomorrow when I am less sleepy I will make google docs containing my stories and send you the URLs.

By the way, today is the first time in quite a long while that I've logged in to Livejournal, and it seems that at some point my e-mail comment notifications stopped working. I didn't notice that at the time (there being nothing to notify me of the fact), but in the intervening months I've received a lot of friend requests. I had no idea that people might still be trying to read my stories, and I feel terrible for being out of touch. The new docs will of course be public.

Thanks for doing such a fabulous job of maintaining the DWP rec list, by the way -- I've gotten a lot of great reading out of it.

^^; *sighs* I wish it didn't have to come to this...

[needled_ink_1975]

Apologies if I offended. I tend to sometimes find the lighter side a bit too quickly.

Sincerely,

Oops, did you think I mean your response? I meant that LJ situation (that people have to make sockpuppets to actually use it :P).

[needled_ink_1975]

Phew! Umm, cos yes, it's a damty serious situation, but my GRRR! levels have reached that stage where (yes, odd) coping mechs are hopping up and down saying, "Find funny side before breakages occur!" (nearest thing to break is, unfortunately, not an alabaster sculpture of Frank [or Mimi]).

Best,

Ooh, thanks for the update. I really appreciate you taking the time to make sure the stories are up and running again. :) I hadn't realized that your notifications were down; that might be why I wasn't able to access your stories from my OpenId account!

Hmm you might want to request it of the owner (there's a button to do that in GoogleDocs). I think the author might have changed permissions since I last checked it. Thanks for letting me know, though! :) Much appreciated.
