The Other Side of Nowhere by b73

This is a 10 chapter + epilogue Jack & Ennis AU that Maggie wrote. I just finished it and have to say I was just wiped out - it was so heart-wrenching. Her characterization of Jack & Ennis is always spot on, no matter what situation they are in. Her writing is beautiful and eloquent. "The Other Side of Nowhere" is sad/depressing but such a compelling read. She always captures the feel of Annie Proulx's original story.

Can you give a link? At least to the first chapter of the story? This is not one I am familiar with....thanks....
Leslie (the other one...)

Leslie, I was thinking of deleting this post because it's friends-locked. I don't know if I should post a link. If you are a friend of Maggie's, then you can find it on her journal and in brokebackslash. Leslie K.

This fic isn't friends locked. But be warned, it is AU!AU but with a canon theme.
It completely slayed me.

Mikaela:
I've gone on record in Maggie's LJ to laud "OSON", so I won't repeat myself here .
But I thought I might use this thread to also recommend Maggie's latest entry, the canon one-shot "The Coven", which is in her LJ and isn't F-locked. The fic's short, and deceptively simple, and about as devastating and haunting a BBM fic as I've ever read. Do read it, if you haven't already - but be warned of the angst.
