Taking Chances, by E. L. Van Hine and L.H. Nicoll
MaineWriter:
I think people are aware that I am in possession of a number of important artifacts from Taking Chances and its sequels, including the "To my one and only true love" card that was tucked in the roses and Ellery's business card. Well, I have just come into possession of Ellery's "little dress" (his silk robe). For those who care about details, it has a little bit of leopard skin print trim on the pocket. Whoo-eee! If you all sweet talk me enough, I might be persuaded to take a picture of it and post here. Unfortunately, Ellery won't be in it because he is wearing a "new woolly robe" given to him by Colson which "does not show all the way to France." Too bad....

Care about details? As in obsessed with minutiae? I do believe you're singing my song, my Royal Highness, Queen of Schmoop, fantastic fic writer, magnificent mod (let me know if you need more sweet nothings - I'll be happy to oblige ;)
Your loyal subject,
Marie
P.S. Not even a wooly robe that doesn't show all the way to France can diminish Ellery's Squeeworthiness!

You're right of course Marie. Although 'all the way to France' certainly has its good points 8)
louisev:
There are other things Ellery wears that show all the way to France though.
Something to keep in mind.
By the way I have not got a lot of feedback on the most recent chapters and how people feel about the subtle but nonetheless important additions to Colson's inner dialogue.
Any ... thoughts?
MaineWriter:
Everyone,
We have an important anniversary coming up on Thursday, May 3rd...that is the day, one year ago, that Louise began writing "Taking Chances." In her original vision it was going to be a short story, detailing the visit of a rural gay man to a discreet "men's club" in the city. One million words later...
I'd like to have some sort of celebration. Thoughts?
Leslie
