Iborigia88...
I'm wondering if there will be a sequel to this story...for some reason it seems to need one...
*grins* I have ways of making you write...

AFAIK there is no sequel.... YET. I'm giving LB a break, but I'm certainly expecting to see the sequel at some point. 
Well, I did leave the implication that the same thing was going to happen all over again...
Yes, I do have ideas for a sequel floating around in my head, but it probably won't be the very next thing I write. I need a bit of a break. I'm an angst junkie, but I find it hard to write, especially from Jun's POV. I really do want to do a sequel, though.
I'm glad you like the story, Ebony!

I was thinking about sequel ideas while I was at the gym today. Does that count?
In TJ's book?? If you're not actually writing, no, it doesn't count. Trust me, I've learned this the hard way!!

I always seem to have a song going through me head when I either write a story or read one...
When I read the scene of Joe making love to Jun in your Guinevere these lyrics came to mind.
When you make love, do you look in the mirror?
Who do you think of, does he look like me?
Do you tell lies and say that it's forever
Do you think twice or just touch 'n' see
Ooh babe oh yeah
When you're alone do you let go
Are you wild 'n' willin' or is it just for show
Ooh c'mon
I don't wanna touch you too much baby
'Cos makin' love to you might drive me crazy
I know you think that love is the way you make it
So I don't wanna be there when you decide to break it
No!
Love bites love bleeds - it's bringin' me to my knees
Love lives love dies -
it's no surprise
Love begs love pleads - it's what I need
When I'm with you are you somewhere else
Am I gettin' thru or do you please yourself
When you wake up will you walk out
It can't be love if you throw it about
Ooh babe
I don't wanna touch you too much baby
'Cos makin' love to you might drive me crazy
Love bites love bleeds - it's bringin' me to my knees
Love lives love dies - it's no surprise
Love begs love pleads - it's what I need
I don't wanna touch you too much baby
'Cos makin' love to you might drive me crazy
I know you think that love is the way you make it
So I don't wanna be there when you decide to break it
No!
Love bites love bleeds - it's bringin' me to my knees
Love lives, love dies
Love bites love bleeds - it's bringin' me to my knees
Love lives love dies - it's no surprise
Love begs love pleads - it's what I need
If you've got love in your sights
Watch out, love bites
by Def Leopard.
Listening to it, it very drawing in the emotions...I just imagined it to be Joe's thoughts...
You're right, Ebony, the lyrics to this song do go well with the fic -nice and angsty. I remember when "Love Bites" first came out, in the Fall of 1988, I think it was.
My first idea for the fic that became "Guinevere" was basically "tragic love triangle," and then my thoughts turned to the classic triangle of Guinevere/Arthur/Lancelot, mostly because I had recently been rereading Guy Gavriel Kay's fantasy novel
"The Darkest Road," in which it is also a theme. However, I confess that I often found myself humming Crosby, Stills and Nash's "Guinevere" when I was writing "Guinevere" !
Guinevere had green eyes
Like yours, mi'lady like yours
When she'd walk down
Through the garden
In the morning after it rained
Peacocks wandered aimlessly
Underneath an orange tree
Why can't she see me?
Guinevere
Drew pentagrams
Like yours, mi'lady like yours
Late at night
When she thought
that no one was watching at all
She shall be free
As she turns her gaze
Down the slope
to the harbor where I lay
Anchored for a day
Guinevere
Had golden hair
Like yours, mi'lady like yours
Streaming out when we'd ride
Through the warm wind down by the bay
Yesterday
Seagulls circle endlessly
I sing in silent harmony
We shall be free

It was so long ago that I read that. it was one of the ones that I lost in my flood and I am hunting used book stores so I can replace it. I really should read it again. I remember I read it because it was a Canadian Author. Doesn't part of it also take place in Toronto or Quebec?
Yes, it's the third book in the Fionavar trilogy. It starts in Toronto, and the main characters are all students at U of T.
Actually, GGK's "Tigana" is my favourite of his novels.

Originally posted by gatchgirl OHHHHH I so must read this one..... do thePersonally, reading other people's fics inspires me to work on my own that much more. For me, trying to write without also reading wouldn't work so well. If you still haven't read Eva's "Occupational Hazards" yet, I recommend you go with it first.
LB, I finally read Guinevere and all I can say is wow! This was the first of your fics that I've read and, after reading this one, I can't wait to read more!! It was the perfect weave of angst, adventure, romance, and yes, of course smut! I was so taken with your style, descriptions, and storytelling.
Now that I've read it, I too can definitely see the sequel potential here! So I will also raise my hand to vote for it, but will not or you. I leave that to the Swans...

Yeah, there'll be some smut -that I can pretty much guarantee. What I need to do now is stop adding to my already rather long outline, and actually start writing, but I also need to rewatch a couple Gatch eps to refresh my memory and to see if I might have to tweak canon a bit.

Cloud wanders off the see what she can find.
In classical mythology there were nine muses, but, sadly, there is no muse specifically for fanfics, but we can assume that Melpomene (tragedy) is for angst, Erato (love or erotic poetry) is for smut and Thalia (comedy) is for humour.

Originally posted by Transmute Jun and for being a Condor girl, you have far more insight into the Eagle that I would have guessed.I will admit that trying to get into Ken's head definitely did give this Condor girl an increased appreciation of Ken's attractiveness -the combination of intensity and passion with repression and self-control... He is hot, and perhaps more than a little messed up, but still hot! (Joe is still my favourite, though.)

After Thanksgiving is over, here in Canada, we have to right through until Christmas before we get another Holiday.My first several years in the US, I was in grad school in Ohio, and in late November I would be trying to finish writing papers and trying to get ready for exams, and I found it very hard to just stop what I was doing and try to get into a holiday mood for one day. One year, I went out to Connecticut for Thanksgiving at my grandmother's house, but I had 90 history exams to read and grade, from the class that I was TA for, so I spent nearly all the time shut away in room by myself, grading. It seemed like such an awkwardly scheduled holiday... Once I wasn't taking classes, I began to enjoy it more! Now I find it does sort of get my holiday mood flowing.

I truly hope that my hunch is right,
Regarding the angst, no romantic story should be written without a healthy dose of angsts in it anyway, just look at "Romeo & Juliet", I think that the story will not be so beautiful without all the angsty moments in it,

Originally posted by gogirl212 Bless you for that for that simple mercy lb. BTW, I don't mean to be unsympathetic to the difficulties of writing. I love your fics and wouldn't want to lose one tiny angst filled moment for the sake of speed. Take your time and I will practice improving my ninja patience between stories.Aw, you're so nice! Hmm, rush and the fic suffers, take too much time and it never gets finished -I'll aim for the happy medium in there somewhere.
Originally posted by Transmute JunNoooo! Don't wait for that!Originally posted by lborgia88 Yes, just like you have us in suspense over your "On the Run" series!LOL... actually, I'm planning on posting more shortly. I wanted to wait until everyone had read Uneasy, though.

Originally posted by lborgia88 I'm not going to say anything about the ending I have planned for the third fic!LB, To tell you the truth, I have no reservation at all on what kind of ending that you have in your mind. You can go wild on that one,
!
My main concern is actually whether there will be more smuts in your third fic, and whether you can write something to outdone the steamy "storeroom scene" in your "Uneasy" fic. Because of you, I will never look at a storeroom the same way again, .
Originally posted by Transmute JunTJ, Since you have left us with a cliffhanger ending on your "Memories" fic for quite some time now, can you promise me that there will be more smuts in your third fic for the series, now that Jason has reunited with Mark&Princess?Originally posted by lborgia88 Yes, just like you have us in suspense over your "On the Run" series!LOL... actually, I'm planning on posting more shortly.

LB posted the sequel??
"angst junkie: I'm not happy until they're not happy."Ooh! I love that!! Words to write by, I say! (and I may borrow them too! May I???)

I used to work at a country club, and now I have a friend who owns a nightclub, so in my head, the storeroom in the fic was based on actual storerooms in both those places. At the country club especially, monthly "inventories" were done to keep all the booze organized, keep track of what was there, and try to ensure that the staff weren't pilfering (too much of) it. Any bar or restaurant owner knows that selling drinks is where the big profits are.
Originally posted by Hinotori LB posted the sequel??Sure! As long as I get to read what you write!. Though I see you waited until I wasn't around to do so! You are definitely a Condor girl, LB!!!

Yes, now that I think about it, I could have posted only some of "Uneasy", stopping just as things were getting interesting in the storeroom, and then waited a few days to post the rest...

Originally posted by shamrokchick Wow that's much earlier... I need Halloween firstWell for us the Thanksgiving weekend is the weekend we put up our Halloween decorations. At least that is when I notice them going up in our neighborhood. I usually wait until the week before. Then we have 2 months of Christmas decorations up. And the next question: why do we celebrate so early in Canada? (Or why do you celebrate so late in the US?
) It is due to the harvest. In Canada Thanksgiving is a celebration of the Harvest brought in from the fields. Well our havesting will be completed very soon and our first frosts have already started. (Snow was seen flying on the weekend in Northern Ontario.) We have a much earlier season than you do in the US.

Yeah that makes sense... I know here the period between Thanksgiving and Christmas is a huge deal to retailers since that's when a majority of their profit is...
