byslantedlightJust to keep things honest, I must admit that I seem to have slipped out of Readers Imbibing Peril mode, and I've been reading Pros over the last week. Maybe I just needed something to cuddle down with whilst I was getting used to my new place! I've read some of the Big Bang stories, and then I cuddled up with some novel(ish)-length lads.
(Ooh! The sun's just set! 4.38pm, and the sun's just set! That doesn't seem right, no matter how much I like curling up in the dark with a good read... of course I get used to it, and then can't imagine going back the other way when the time comes... *g*)
November by Sebastian
I like this one, and it's coming up for the right month too! It's a first time story, set in the difficult cold months when Doyle is recovering from Discovered in a Graveyard. About 22,000 words.
The Yellow Brick Road by Kate MacLean
Another classic Pros story, 61,000+ words, from Doyle's point of view, and starting right at the beginning - well with Private Madness Public Danger anyway, which was the first Pros episode aired, all those years ago. We follow the lads along as Doyle tries to get to know Bodie, through years of ups and downs, until... well, I'm not going to tell you if you don't know, am I? *g* Well worth getting hold of though, if you've not already read it - MacLean is an excellent Pros writer, one of my favourites.
Who Caught and Sang the Sun by Slantedlight
Okay, which is a bit weird, I read one of my own stories. But I thought I'd better remind myself of their universe if I was going to try and carry on one of the sequels to this story, or think about the third one for NaNoWriMo (though actually I'm thinking about something else now...) Anyway - I didn't find it entirely bad, so that was okay. Phew. *g* 63,000+ words. And I do rather like the older lads that I imagine myself (well of course, or I wouldn't imagine them!) so it was quite nice to be in their world for a bit.
Actually, whilst I'm here (silly question, but...) has anyone else been reading Prosfic lately? What've you been reading...? *g*
