Recommendation....
Jul. 4th, 2003 10:10 pmI'm running behind on the recommendations. And many other things.
It doesn't begin to catch up but let me recommend two wonderful stories:
Behind a Dragon's Smile by
thamiris. I liked this because it's clever, it's smart, it's very hot, and it has a wonderful exotic oriental parable that really means something in terms of the characterization and plot; and I love the resolution to the puzzle presented by the action. I also, as always, love Thamiris' style. Someday I will be able to let out all the stops in my writing and acquire the crystalline impact that she has - with apparent effortlessness, but I know better than to believe that. While you're reading that one, check out also The Way Bodies Bend for a nice, sexy twist on things. I'm still not sure quite what to make of it.
Not Less Than Everything by
isagel. Okay, I was slightly responsible for this, and I couldn't be prouder. Isagel met my challenge to write a Clex-piece based on the poetry of T.S. Eliot and the results are amazing. Utterly wonderful.
