Well be prepared when you read "Catch the Westbound." That one broke my heart and reduced it to ashes.

Did you wind up finishing it Leslie? Did you get through "Boxcar"? I started to re read this whole series, got to Catch the Westbound about a week ago and stopped, the window is still minimized at the bottom of my computer screen just waiting for me to have the courage to open it. It's a beautiful story and, honestly, probably the story I've been most affected by out of all the fic I've read... but it still takes some working up to.
Latest absolute MUST read by Maggie:
The Legacy of Elk-Killer and Bull-Rider

In her reply to my comment, she said she might continue it. Oh, I so hope so.
This blew me away... it takes serious talent to write myths and to use that tone and voice that Maggie used in that story. As Helen said on LJ, I'll never look at constellations the same.
