I’m always so interested in hearing the ones people loved. I find I’ve got stories that I loved writing, and some I love reading, and some where it’s both – and those are the best. Puppy Love was one of those! It’s one of my all time favourites of my own. I love Sunrise too. With the big ones, my love of them is sometimes tainted by how hard it is to write long stories! So while I know lots of people love 24/7 and Two Masters, I always have mixed feelings about them. I can remember the struggle of making them work and bringing them to fruition all too well!
And something like Damage – that was really hard to write – I was straddling such a fine line with keeping it true to the experience Tony had gone through and everyone’s reaction to it, while at the same time not selling it out or over-egging it. And some bits were so horrible I could hardly bear writing them but they had to be there. I find it’s one I like to dip into and re-read bits of a lot though – more than many of my stories. The bit where Gibbs goes to Tony’s apartment to find out the truth— I’ve read that tons of times. And the bit in the bowling alley. And the bit with the shattered glass *g*.
Then there are some that were just a dream to write – A Man of Two Truths was like that for me. I still love that story to bits after all this time.
Whereas others I find utterly embarrassing. And some I look at and don’t remember writing at all – that’s really freaky when that happens! LOL! But I suppose it has been 13 years!
