Help find a story...
« on: August 03, 2006, 11:30:59 pm »
Hi,

I'm looking for a story about Jack and Randall.  I think the author's real name might be Amanda.  On dc her screen name started with an "a" and also had an "x" in there somewhere.  Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks.
Kelly

I would post this over at brokebackslash... they would probably know  :)

I'm looking for a story callled "Standing Still," in which Jack wants Ennis to dance with him.

Thought maybe we could turn this into a "looking for a story" column!

Sounds like an interesting story... sorry haven't heard of it.  But yes that was my idea, in terms of the thread name... hopefully some answers to go along with the questions, eventually.

Kelly,

Not sure if this is the story you are looking for.  "Come November" by athinfacade. http://community.livejournal.com/brokebackslash/295981.html#cutid1

I didn't read the story so don't know if this is the one.  Just notice that the stroy is about Jack and Randall.

Thanks everyone for alerting me to this author.  I read a bunch of her stuff today and really enjoyed it!  The Jack/Randall/Ennis story isn't over yet... she has also written some RPS and other interesting Brokeback related things.
